Reddish stem

Plants look good from what I could see. What are your temps? It might be getting a bit cold which causes coloring in the stems.

Could also be a nute imbalance, is that nute burn on your leave tips?

If it's burn then lower your nutes a bit, if it's cold heat it up. Either way, the plants look good and I wouldn't worry too much about the stem color.

Temps stay between 70-72 during dark phase and 82-84 when the lights are on. That's the only leaf with a dark tip. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't any nutrient lockouts or deficiencies

I'm using soil and I add 4 ml ca/ma with each feeding. It may be low on N because I haven't been giving it much since I've switched it to flower.

Ah well that is it. First 10 days of flower they use a lot of N (stretch)an bloom nutes don't have enough. And listen purple streaks are an issue regardless of what people think, because it's an indicator..

An indicator of genetics frequently.

In the absence of any OTHER symptoms, it really doesn't mean much because it means EVERYTHING. It's like a doctor taking your Sed Rate with no other symptoms. As a singular diagnostic it's virtually worthless because literally ANYTHING will elevate your Sed Rate. Or it might be elevated for no particular reason at all.

if you're more than two weeks into flower I would back off the growth nutes, and move to a bloom nute.
So I took your advice. I'm removing the Vegan Booster and the floricious blend which was both high in N and I'm adding Rock Resinator Heavier Yeilds it's NPK ratio is 0-7-8. I will be adding it at 3ml p/gallon
