Have you ever seen purple weed? It looks like purple grape colors, and it seems weird. You may wonder if it’s safer, or even better than the cannabis strains that are the normal deep green. Let’s find out what’s so special about this weed here in this article.
What it is
This is basically a cannabis bud that has a lot of anthocyanins in it, which is what makes this responsible for the purple color. It’s usually more wine-colored in the indica strains, as the buds usually grow with that coloration, and it’s usually got a profile that’s relaxing, and sleepy. But the community has a ton of purple colors and strains that are there, and you can even ask your budtender about this.
The purple strains will usually look some variety of purple, others looking more plum or mauve, and usually, this is something that's purely based on the genetic profile. If you’re looking to figure out grape stains, you’re not alone. Next, we’ll talk about some of the best purple weed strains out there to try!
Grandaddy Purple is King
The best one of these purple strains, is of course, grandaddy purple, which is a blend of big bud, purple Urkle, and also it offers a very good taste, and a unique profile. It’s indica dominant, and it’s a strain that was introduced back in the early 2000s, with the constant appeal that hasn’t dropped. It’s got a grape and berry profile, and a lot of people like this one to help with pain issues, appetite problems, insomnia, and even stress too. It’s great for euphoria, sedation, even relaxation and appetite boosting.
Purple Haze
This is one of the few strains that’s sativa and is purple. This is one that Jimi Hendrix did popularize based on the song. Ty’s got a sweet and earthy texture, and atom definitely sells like spices and berries. This is also good for those who want the creativity boost, and more energy, for it’s a natural sativa that packs a punch.
Obama Kush
Yes, there’s a strain named after Obama, the former president, and it’s one that’s definitely high quality. It won’t be as purple as the rest of them that are here, but it’s got a decent color, and it’s one that the purple community loves because of the potency. It’s a cross between what’s called OG Kush and Afghani, and it’s responsible for a euphoric and intense sort of rush that you’ll definitely want to enjoy.
Sour Grape
This is one that’s got a very grape aroma to it, and it’s very indica dominant, while still being a hybrid. It’s a mix of GDP and Sour Diesel, and some sourness added to this. It’s pure, potent, and very, very purple. This is something that’s got the uncanny ability to make you feel both energetic, but also super calm. It’s relaxing, which is good for relieving stress, and it relieves the tension of the muscles too.
These are all unique plants, and the cool thing about this, is that there aren't any major changes to this. Some believe that you have too much nitrogen if the weed starts to turn purple, and some believe that it impacts the yield of the plants. But it’s found that it’s actually not due to that.
It’s also not because of water. If you do water it wrong, or too little, they suppose it becomes purple. But that’s not the case. That won’t create the purple buds, so you don’t have to worry.
And there you have it; all you need to know about purple buds.
