Max,
i would not be too worried about it. i do not have experience growing many various strains like SD but my current strain ICE (in Hydro) has purple stems as well. always has and most likely always will. i think it has something to do with the phenotypes of the original strains that were used to make whatever strain that is, like Scott said. I have also read that if your temps get in the lower range it can cause color changes in the plant and buds.
My Ice has 2 thick purple stripes that run down its entire stem as well as totally purple stems on mostly all of my fan leaves. Your plant does look more indica dominant but due to the actual size of the leaves (not the thickness) i would say there is def some percentage of a sativa in those genes somewhere. im sure you will be happy with it regardless. Nice job. Do yourself a favor though, follow the advice from the other soil growers here. REPOT!!!!!!!!! ASAP.
Ice
