The Purps

Breeder: BC Bud Depot Sativa 60 / Indica 40 Origins - Mendo Purps clone x Purps Flowering - 56-63 days Harvest - Late October

This purple plant comes out of Mendocino County, in northern California, where she began as a clone-only plant among the medical marijuana community. BC Bud Depot has developed a stable cross to make Purps seeds available. The Purps is good in indoor and outdoor environments.

The Purps is a pungent variety with medium thick leaves and green hues that turn more purple as the plant ripens. Her moderate side branching makes her amendable to both pruning for a Sea of green garden, and, alternatively, encouraging her to spread out as a multi-branch plant. BC Bud Depot prefers growing The Purps in soil with medium organic feedings, because it enhances the flavors in this smooth and complex strain - hints of buttery caramel coffee and woodsy floral pine.

Indoors, The Purps reaches an average 3-4 feet at harvest, while outdoors she can grow to 6 or 8 feet. Her height can be controlled by shortening the vegetative phase, which may also influence her final crop. The Purps' indoor yields range from 1.5 to 2.5 ounces per plant, while outdoor plants will produce 4-5 ounces each. These plants require 8-9 weeks to finish, which places harvest in the last half of October. Although she is a hardy, pest-resistant strain, the Purps is more suited for gardeners with a few crops under their belts.

The buds are tasty looking and smelling, with deep purple coloring and a frosting of resin. The flavors are soothing and tantalizing, lingering pleasurably on the tongue. The Purps high soars into a long-lasting purple haze of playful euphoria. It produces an active, awake feeling with a very low burnout factor. A nice antidote to depression, these rich flavored buds turn the blues to the Purps.
