Your only avenue is with the temperatures.... purple strains want/need much lower temps and a high degree of swing between daytime and nighttime temps... if you can't control the temps, all you'll get is great weed - just not purple weed! Not much to complain about! :-D Good luck...

add 1-2 tablespoons of baking soda (fast acting) per gallon to watering to ph up to 6.5-7 The yellowing leaves will refill with pigmentation once PH comes back up to 7, and N&K will flow once more! Chlorophyll below degrades at 59 Fahrenheit and lower but doing so earlier than ripening will dramatically affect the growth of flowers try 65 nights and 77 days, you do not want more than a 10-12 degree swing between day and night if it can be helped until ripening.

Genetically it must first have the ability to do so, comparable to having the correct drivers loaded on a computer it must first know how to produce anthocyanin or one of the 350 or so known types. 1.Genetics 2.Temp 3.PH You have your ph at 5.9 Nitrogen is a mobile nutrient, meaning it can be redistributed where needed for new more "important' growth like flowers This makes nitrogen and potassium hard to uptake through rootzones, because nitrogen uptake is restricted the plant's veg growth is starting to yellow like yours. it's not that you need to bring them out, you need to force the plant to change for its own survival. Anthocyanin (purple pigment) to replace chlorophyll the environment needs to provide more PAR (photosynthetic radiation) in the blue/UV regions as the photoreceptor CRY is responsible for harvesting energy from the blue/UV wavelengths in order to also produce the anthocyanin. growdiaries.com/diaries/156342-grow-journal-by-exbeginner add 1-2 tablespoons of baking soda (fast acting) per gallon to watering to ph up to 6.5-7
