I’ve been growing a variety of Super Hots from seed under a grow light. Within the last week,the leaves have gradually started turning a purple color, starting from the stem.
The leaves also have been dropping and some are yellowing.
They’ve been fed casting tea and were potted in a soil with some compost added.
I understand I’m late transplanting into a larger pot, does anything think that is the primary cause?
Any advice welcome!

The dark leaves make me think the light is on too high. Try adjusting it down a bit and checking the levels with a phone app like Photone or Lux

It’s like a plant Sunburn. Nothing to really worry about

Also based on experience they are staying too wet as the leaves look pale & you said you are fertilizing… Let them dry out more
