Purple seedlings

I have numerous seedlings with the same symptoms-
Green tops but purple bases.
Is this normal?

Normal-ish. The base of the plant is not as adapted to strong light and turns purple. The top of the plant has grown in stronger light and is not bothered by it.

Thanks Iann,
This make me feel somewhat relieved as I have a number of these plantsd and people have been suggesting too much sun which I do not believe.
