sounds like its just a case of nutrient lock up.. the best way to solve this problem is to flush the plant for a few days and usually it will clear right up and if not mix a tsp of molasses with a gal warm water stir let cool 2 room temp and apply as the molasses will make the nutes easier for the plant to use.. im not a expert but from my past experiences these methods have both worked very well for me

thats fine but dont take water from the hot side of the tap since hot water lines have big mineral build up in the pipes. always use cold water, then warm up on stove or in microwave and add blackstrap molasses.

I've grown lots of plants that grew purple stems...never seemed to make much of a difference. IIRC, as the plants matured it went away on many of them.
