Looks similar to mine. I got hindu skunk kush. Was completely green until october and went purp!! I think it has to do with temperatures dropping... not sure if it has anything to do with # of hours of sun. Also, as far as i know it isnt a bad thing

If you're out in the cold repeatedly, it could easily be Phosphorus def., locked out from the cold.
My indica got hit hard from it,and the discoloration was black.
But my Sativa only turned the sugar leaves purple like that.

I agree it's probably a P def...they've seen a lot of cold. A dozen or so nights at freezing or below. one night down to 27, made tipis of bamboo and row cover and used jugs of warm water under the tipis. This is the only plant showing purple of the remaining girls: 4 Dr. Grinspoons, Hawaiian Snow, Arjan's Haze #1 and the Critical Neville's Haze that is the purple one.

Actually, Phosphorus is K, but with the cold, you're going to see growth slow dramatically also. :(
Mine almost stopped altogether for over a week.
Sorry, don't know what I was thinking. P is right. DUH

Yeah, it drops below 45 or so and they just flat shut down, collect moisture and hope it warms up enough that they can rot...the little buggers. Tomorrow, the high is supposed to be 40 and probably blowing a little snow, but then the girls can kick ass for 3 or 4 sunny days with highs up into the mid 60s. They might be running at as much as 10% efficiency...lol.
