Purple Weed Strains: As Gorgeous as It Gets

Not only are the purple marijuana seeds in this collection of high quality, but they also have a wide range of genetic lineages and are available in many forms: regular, feminized, and autoflowering. Purple Sativa or purple Indica seeds? Check and check! If you’re a fan of purple weed strains, look no further – this list has it all.

Benefits of Purple Marijuana

The main advantage of purple marijuana over other varieties is that it pleases not only the body and soul, but also the eye. You must agree that beauty is an asset in itself, especially for commercial growers, who can charge extra for the crazy bag appeal of some super purple weed.

More than that, purple weed strains are usually also more resilient to stress and low temperatures. The reason is their high concentration of anthocyanins. This element is what gives purple cannabis plants their eye-catching color.

Anthocyanins are known for their antioxidant properties, and some users report potential anti-inflammatory and calming effects. However, more research is needed to confirm these health benefits.

Purple Strains’ Seeds: How Strong is the Bud?

The bright coloring of purple weed alone does not affect the cannabinoid profile of the plant. Rather, it speaks to the fact that the parents of the purple cannabis variety come from a region with a rather harsh and changeable climate, where they were forced to produce potent resin in order to withstand strong winds, excessive sunlight, parasite attacks, and dramatic temperature fluctuations. Consequently, varieties originally grown in areas where the climate is harsh have a very strong effect. Just think of some pure Indica landraces, or hybrids based on them, to get an idea of just how potent purple marijuana seeds can be!

Most of the varieties in this collection have a THC content of over 20%, with top purple weed strains containing as much as 25% or even 30% THC in their resin! Green or purple cannabis seeds, these levels are insane! But even if you find a lower THC content in some of these marijuana seeds, don’t jump to conclusions. Plants grown from so-called purple seeds are known for their high levels of terpenes, elevating any smoking experience and making the effects unique and complex.

Disclaimer: High-THC cannabis strains should be consumed with caution, especially by novice users. Always start with a low dose and be mindful of your tolerance levels.

A Versatile Family with Powerhouse Strains

Purple weed seeds spoil marijuana growers with choice, both in terms of their characteristics as well as notable genetics. Here are some examples you could start exploring purple bud seeds with:

• Purple Punch is a feminized purple Indica seed from Barney’s Farm that yields as much as 700 g/m² (2.3oz/ft²) indoors, or even more, 2kg (4.4lbs) per plant outdoors, after a relatively short 9 weeks of flower.
• Grandmommy Purple from Herbies Seeds is the fruit of our cooperation with the industry’s best breeders. It has the distinctive grape flavor you expect from purp seed, as well as a mind-blowing 30% THC content.

Both strains have excellent attributes, and toward the end of the flowering stage, their colors transform into varying degrees of purple. Moreover, you can always find a selection of Purple Kush seeds from different breeders in this collection, as well as Purple Skunk seeds known for their euphoric effects and flavors that blend sweet and savory. Basically, whatever cannabis your heart craves, whatever effects you’re looking for, you can find them here in gorgeous purple!

Growing Tip for Cultivating Purple Bud Seeds

Okay, so you’ve already found some great purple weed seeds for sale. Now it would really help to know how to make the purple hues of your cannabis as intense as possible. Logically enough, to do this, a grower needs to enhance the plant's production of anthocyanins.

As we’ve already mentioned, these are produced in response to external stresses. You can, for example, provide a noticeable fluctuation between day and night temperatures a couple of weeks prior to harvest. During daylight hours, keep the thermometer at 24-27C (75-81F), and at night, lower it to 18-20C (64-68F). The most important thing is not to go lower than this – too drastic of a temperature shift can lead to excessive stress and problems with the plant.
