Default Purple leaf?
I am growing this plant under red and blue LED lights. The lights are pretty strong. So I am thinking this color is just due to the plant getting max amount of light.

At the same time I am not 100% so I would like to know if maybe this color could be due to an illness. The rest of the plant looks fine. I have not been watering it as much as I should could dehydration be a cause too?

Thanks guys.

This is a beallara orchid and it spent the summer outside but with some shade. none of the other orchids under the light are going purple. I guess beallara orchid don't needs as much light.
