Extreme Purple color?

[Max Blast]

Can anyone explain why I might be having my plants turn an EXTREME PURPLE color in the last 2 weeks of flower?

I do not measure ppm but I do keep about 5.7 to 6.0 ph levels, 250 watt hps, barrel of green style, fan pushed ventelation.

I have never seen anything quite this purple, has trichs but even the leaves are purple.

regards,
Max Blast

Pictures and strain?

If its just in the stems and petioles its a deficiency, but if the actual leaves are turning purple its either too cold or its genetic.

Cold temps can also make your buds turn purple. What are your temps like?

Temps are low this time of year in so-cal.
Ambient temps range from 65 to 75 *F during 12 lighted hours and as low as 40*F during darkened 12 hours.

Buds are indeed very purple. The plant came from seeds from a hermie slightly puple mom.

Got a feeling it may be a combination of temps and genetics.

thanks,
