Since I added the 5-5-5 Peace of Mind Fert and flushe dthe soil, it has been producing healthy white hairs and seems to be doing better. If it were root rot would it still grow this big and appear helthy, other than the obvious? And what would cause that root rot? I have never had the problem to resaerch it. We have had a mild summer and I have not water it once this summer other than the DI flush.

This is what I am looking at! IT looks exactly like this, but very little leaves are curling; the purple is very dark on new sprouts, then fans out to the ends of the older larger leaves; here is where the collor purple is distinguished. Some of the white hairs are comming up with red and dark-red spots. Other than that it is looking like Sweet Purple. I got this picture from seed store on the net. Here some more recent pics.

Well, it very well could be just supposed to turn purple, but something says "unhealthy" to me when i look at the amount of curling on hose leaves in the far left pic. As I can not see it in person, I leave you with this: If it seems healthy, don't worry about it.

I feel the same way with these leaves curling; that is why I started this thread. I was reading today and I noticed that the Sweet Purple takes 50-60 days to flower. So far I am right on target. I will find out for sure in another three-four weeks when the buds fill in more and become more defined. If the leves continue to curl I know there is some sort of nute problem. If not I will be smokin good!bongsmilie. Hope for the best; Expect the worst!! It definitely has been strong and appearing healthy growing like a weed!

looks like a purple strain... maybe haze, purple power, or durban poison. There's more but just to give you an idea.

Today I was stiring the soil up a bit and accedently stripped one of the lower branches off, OOPS! Any way, hopeing that this does not hurt her to bad, she is doing great producing some very nice flowers. It is starting to look like it is genetic, but then again once damage is done.... All new flowers are appearing like all others. The white hairs are begining to get red streaks in them all.

I wanted to update everyone. It has been confirmed by multiple people that this was a Phosphorous Deficiency. All in all it went well. Luckily enough I spotted the problem early enough to get a yield, which ended up being only 175grams. I have posted some pics of this beast a couple weeks before harvest, and some pics of some buds that are curing.
