Purple Haze hemp

Purple is a well-known cannabis strain known for its characteristic purple coloration, which is naturally caused by seasonal temperature changes. To achieve the true purple color during maturation, the strain must of course have a certain genetic potential. When grown under normal conditions, the intense presence of green chlorophyll usually overwhelms other colors, such as orange, red, and purple.

The presence of Chlorophyll tends to decrease with the arrival of cold autumn nights, and the purple pigment known as "Anthocyan" begins to shine through. This Anthocyan is essentially located in the layer beneath Chlorophyll, and certain cannabis strains have a greater potential for producing this substance, which causes the purple coloration of plants.

What does purple strain mean?

The term "purple cannabis" is used to describe plants that exhibit purple hues during flowering. The history of purple cannabis genetics is actually quite hazy. Experts believe that there is no unique plant characterized by purple coloration, and they attribute the purpling to specific cultivation and growing in cold conditions.

Why are purple cannabis strains so popular?

Purple color is often presented as a color of royal status. Similarly, this unique flower coloration gives the plant a touch of royal lineage or meticulous refinement.

Another theory for why purple strains are so popular is that they represent a challenge for growers. The process of growing quality purple strains is not at all simple and requires a significant amount of effort from growers. However, if you follow the basic conditions for this style of cultivation, your purple plant can be truly beautiful.

For a successful grower, achieving such a shade is comparable to the feeling of a gardener breeding truly delicate and expensive wine. Purple color is always a sign of good cannabis quality.

So how to grow purple strains?

As mentioned in our article, achieving the true purple coloration is not easy at all. The first thing you must carefully consider is selecting the right genetics. In short, this means that a plant without purple genes (proportion of the substance called Anthocyan) will never turn purple.
Regardless of how much you try or what you do with the plant. Indian cannabis strains with the "Kush" label are often the right choice for growers who want to grow a quality purple strain.

What you must further ensure is optimal coolness during maturation. As mentioned, the higher chlorophyll layer must be replaced by the Anthocyan layer beneath it. To achieve this process, you need to grow the plant at lower temperatures than you are usually accustomed to. However, if you allow the temperature to drop below a tolerable level, the plant will start to wither. Always keep in mind that the purple coloration of the plant is beautiful, but you must pay considerable caution and not stress the plant with too low temperatures longer than absolutely necessary.

The most important factor will then be your patience. Complete ripening of plants in cold conditions takes longer, which of course means waiting a bit longer. However, the results can be stunning. If you think you are not the type of person who can afford to wait, then purple cannabis may not be the ideal choice for you.

What are examples of good purple cannabis?

One of the most famous purple cannabis strains is undoubtedly Purple Kush. This strain has a very sweet aroma, with a hint of juicy grapes. Purple Kush is a good relief for demanding growers, as it induces a relaxing feeling without any hint of fatigue.

Purple Kush is available from seedbanks Seedsman or Buddha Seeds.

Another popular purple strain is undoubtedly Purple Haze. This strain can give you a very euphoric feeling. It has a strong sweet taste with a hint of sandalwood.

Other famous purple strains include Purple Voodoo, Purple Diesel, or Purple # 1.
