JM2C. All my plants get a brighter/lighter shade at the tops when first entering flower.
Probably something to do with the hormone changes.
Outdoors you can kind of use it to tell when a plant will start flowering even before the pistil onset.
The blue circled above. Now the red is probably a K ask and you seem to have responded to that with bloom nutes so
probably all good. The plant from yesterday seems nice and healthy. I find my lights sometimes make the plants look brighter than they are.
