Does my plant look ok?

Hey guys so I'm new to growing this is my first season and my Carolina reaper plant looks like the the leaves are almost a little purple in color is this normal I'm guessing it needs some kind of nutrients if anyone can recommend anything let me know what you think thanks.
 
Typically purple in the leaves or stem are a sign of UV absorption, kind of like a suntan for plants. The dark color helps prevent further sun damage to the leaves and is very common and not usually a problem. Pics would help everyone help diagnose the issue though.

It's probably lonely.  You should grow more.  Better seed like 50, just in case 49 don't germinate.  Trust me.  :evil:
 
 
Are you sure 50 is enough?
 
I agree with everybody else here looks fine to me.
