You can turn any plant purple with colder temps...it's basically killing the chlorophyll and turning it purple. Now for strains that have that trait to turn purple naturally you want to drop your nighttime temps about 15-20 degrees of the daytime temps. And you should do it for the last 3 weeks of flowering and it'll purple those plants up nice.

I wouldn't drop my temps below 58. Any colder and your plants growth will slow drastically. Meaning less yield for a little purple. If purple is in the genetics they will turn usually the last 2 weeks of flower. I run 75 daytime and 58-60 nites. My kush strain ends up purple the last 2 weeks of flower. Good luck.

Purple means the plant is stressed. If you really want this put it in the fridge for an hour a day. It needs cold to frost to go purple unless its a purple strain.

I like to use food coloring to give my plants their dankness. All the colors in the rainbow! People buy that shit!
