Purple leaves? Newbie needing help

Hey all. Just checked in on my girls and noticed some leaf purpleing going on. Not sure what that means. Done some reading and looking like a phosphorous deficiency? I have 2 jack herer autoflowers in 5 gal fabric pots. Both are 5 weeks old in fox farm ocean forest soil and I have added absolutely nothing but water when needed. Any help appreciated!

Looks like it’s time to start adding some flowering nutes. If you stick with FF then the trio is what you are after. Open Sesame, Beastie Bloomz and Cha Ching IIRC. If something else; look for higher P, K numbers than N.

Those leaves will not recover FYI.

Thank you! Should I add some cal mag at the same time?

Also should I give it a half dose of everything in the fox farm 3 pack?

What is the three pack? @Newbie90

Follow the instructions on the back of big bloom, and tiger bloom. Have you stopped feeding the grow big?
Another three to look at are the bloom boosters by fox farms. Check the NPK ratios on those.

I use all 6 nutrients by FF. This is the set I get and obviously you don’t do all 6 at the same time. And most has seen what I’ve done with my 3 grows since joining.

I’ve never used foxfarms nutrients but just seems like you use twice as much as with gh flora trio

Only one of FF you will use the most of is Big Bloom between my 6 different FF Nutrients. Only 5 I didn’t need to replace since May 2018. And I’ve grown over 15 plants on these.
