genetics.. its more in hybrid strains.. but it just depends some get it some don't... people mistake purple stems for a disease but the disease that causes that is completely different you'll know if you have the disease just purple lines and stuff are nothing to worry about they happen. as long as your leaves and plant are healthy your fine... SOLID PURPLE stems or more Pink but still solid colors is a bit different... but you need to know what your looking for.

Yes, cold temperatures will cause stems and even buds to purple up. That is what's cool about growing outdoor in the midwest, it gets cold in the fall and a lot of plants put off tons of purple colors, not all strains but many.

Your quote, not mine:
"yep.. raise your temps though you have to remember your room temp maybe 72.. that means soil is probably 62 or maybe lower at night.. it takes a long time to reheat that soil..."

It's not a problem and many people add ice and things to water at the end of flower to try an induce more color change. During flower with bigger plant, and bigger roots, the cold isn't an issue but early on the cold dirt temps do slow growth a lot. Like you suggested, the OP just needs to bring them soil temps up. Cheers man.
