Sweet Purple – ($$)

Strain Background

Sweet Purple is an indica dominant hybrid strain created through a cross of Purple Dutch X Unknown strain. The exact genetics of this bud are unknown due to breeder secrecy, but it is well known that this bud was bred for the purpose of easy outdoor growth. In fact, it won 3rd Place at the High Times' Cannabis Cup in 2004 for Best Outdoor Strain! Sweet Purple buds have dense and fluffy super dark purple or royal blue spade-shaped nugs with dark amber hairs, and sparse thick crystal clear trichomes and visible droplets of sweet sticky resin. This bud has a tasty classic purple aroma and flavor of sweet earthy grape with a strong minty herbal aftertaste upon exhale that can be too much for some users. The Sweet Purple high has characteristically uplifting effects that are a perfect combination of sedative indica effects and clear-headed sativa effects. The high hits you first in the head with a cerebral rush that gives you complete clarity with a feeling of mental relief from any pain or racing thoughts. This head high fades slowly into an insanely relaxing physical body stone that leaves you utterly serene and relaxed with a sense of peace and well-being. The comedown is incredibly sedative and often ends in a deep and peaceful pain-free sleep. These effects and its THC level of 15-20% on average make Sweet Purple perfect for treating chronic pain, mild cases of depression, insomnia, and chronic stress or anxiety.
