Purple stripes on stalk ????

Strain- Purple Flow (GDPxFLOW)
medium- soil HF
Nutrient- age old liquid

Is this just a trait of the strain or is something wrong? Plant looks healthy and the other strains arent doing it .Others are blueberry and pineapple express.Check it out .

pretty! I wouldn't freak, so long as they seem healthy.

I have seen this asked nurmous times and have yet to see an answer as to why stems turn like that.

Inquiring Minds what to know.

Stems turn reddish from three primary causes: genetics, Phosphorus deficiency and dying plant material. Our Mother's Finest, for example, has one pheno especially prone to purplish stems that we can identify in veg. Phosphorus deficiency can cause slight purpling all over the plant, making reddish stems and often dark green leaves. Dying plant cells can make a bright red color, the exact same way lettuce turns red when it's old.
