Purple Strains

While we can't guarantee that 100% of plants will turn purple because nature is nature, our seeds are genetically bred to display purple colours at a 90% rate, meaning they should turn purple even in less-than-ideal conditions and without any extra care.

Cannabis flowers have several characteristics, such as smell, flavour, potency, and coloration, among others. So yes, purple strains do smell and taste different from green strains, but they also smell and taste different from one another, and this has nothing to do with their purple colour. It all comes down to the fact that each variety has its own unique terpene profile, which is what truly defines the aroma, flavour, and even colour of your buds.

Yes. Although all strains in the Purples category are bred to turn purple in most environments, cooler nighttime temperatures during the late flowering stage can help break down chlorophyll and reveal the pigments responsible for purple, blue, and pink hues.

Of course! You can grow purple strains both indoors and outdoors. Purple strains are "regular" strains in the sense that they are no different from green plants. What makes them purple is simply one of the many characteristics that make a cultivar unique.

Many of our purple strains are exceptionally potent and flavourful, but colour alone does not determine quality. What gives cannabis its potency and aroma is the trichome content and terpene profile, not the colour of the flowers.

Yes, because different strains express different pigment concentrations and types, which means you can have deep violet, soft lavender, vivid pink, and dark blue hues all growing in the same tent. However, environmental factors can also influence the exact shade each plant displays, making every plant a unique visual experience.

Purple coloration is more commonly associated with indica-dominant genetics, as many of the original landrace strains originated in regions where indica plants evolved. Nowadays, thanks to hybrid breeding, purple traits can appear in sativa and hybrid varieties too.

The terpene profile of each strain is unique regardless of its pigmentation. That said, purple strains often carry rich terpene profiles with notes of berries, grapes, and sweet earthiness, though this is down to the breeding rather than the colour itself.
