Start with purple genetics.
Add a purple nutrient additive.
Drop your temps.
Watch the nOObs drool.
Purple ain't nuttin' but a color. Some of the worst bud I've ever grown was purple... pretty as fuck... tasted like your average brick.
It's all about what your goals are.

You pretty much summed it all up lol
I want to grow good bud but at the same time purple bud is automatcly assumed good bud. I want good bud but even though I know I could grow regular weed that wll be a better smoke I need to appeze to the average smoked and the average smoker wants purple bud...

I think some purples are overrated....most bud will get you high, I think people pay mostly for smell taste looks...with a good high being absolutely necessary. What im saying is good purple may be weaker than some really good green but its just some of the connoisseur aspects that appeal....and anything purple people seem to love foolishly so sometimes.
Here's something I have now.....yumm
Grand Daddy Purp.

I got some "Purple Bud" seeds from Seedsman. It's an f1 skunk hybrid with 18.3% Thc. Ideal for an indoor grow.

I'm with ya  ... my pro-grower friend has some gorgeous 'Grandaddy Purple' trees in his garden ... he just shakes his head when he thinks about the price it will pull, and it is VERY average-smoking pot ... personally, I judge my smoke by the 'color' I see AFTER smoking it

purple buds
According to Ed Rosenthal to turn bud purple you need to drop the temperature to fifty degrees for two hours for one week.of course you need a plant that has a genetic composition to turn puple.Like grape ape or grand daddy purple.

Little tinge
My purple is nothing to compare to the others but I ended having a purple tinge to my NL.
My plants are definitely N deficient.

that strain was a one off phenotype that was clone only. i only wish i could get some of that shit im currently trying to get a purple urkle clone for a breeder to cross an release in their strain list at some point
temperature is the best way to get em purple as most plants have purple in them its just the chlorophyll takes over the purple colour.
the colder temps around 15 c will also increase resin to, i do this a lot and get some real frosty buds im now experimenting with lowering temps furthur with the strawberry cough strain which has purple traits so well see wot happens

Several strains treated with SnowStorm and cool temps
Foliar application of SnowStorm once a week in flower.
Temps dropping to 60-65 at night (yeah the plants are pissed, you ever hear the term 'pissed purple? heh heh) I don't recommend this until the last couple weeks, IF THAT, of flower.

My buddy grows some Grand Daddy Purps
He told me that he does not drop temps or anything, he just grows it and late into growing, it turns purple.
Indoor btw.

ive heard that you can put em into the freezer for a few hours after youve cured them... not sure about the details or if that was the right order...anybody know something about that?

That doesn't really make sense to me. You want to encourage the LIVING plant to produce its maximum purple pigment, and then at the end of flower, to encourage it to use up all its green pigment (chlorophyll) which often masks pure, clear purple coloring in healthy plants.
'Round these parts, the outdoor folks will sometimes let their crops take a frost. Personally, I'd be hesitant to do that, because of the potential for physical damage, but it will certainly help to bring out pruple coloring in genetically predisposed plants.

There is of course a difference between purple leaves and purple bud. Lots of growers will leave some extra leaf on the bud if it had turned purple. This can give the herb a not so surprisingly leafy taste to it.
The purple calyxes are the goal if one wants purple bud. I find the GDP tops turn slightly purple on the tips of the calyxes, but it is mostly the leaves that turn purple. This can be seen in the picture posted above by revanche.

Pure Power Plant turned purple
I know this is really late, but felt like chiming in anyway. I have a few Pure Power Plants flowering outside right now, November 20th (I live in the south). I too noticed purple flowers and attribute this to the change in temperatures, especially at night. The plants are doing incredibly well considering how late in the season it is, and I must admit the entire grow was an experiment to see how long I could extend my growing season. However, back to the point at hand - none of my PPP have ever exhibited purple flowers until this grow. I hope to see more change color, as it is beautiful.
