Best purple strain to get?

Thanks for the info on Ken's GDP and Emerald's Royal Purple Kush. Its going to be a tough choice to make. I already have a few TGA's gear going and Jack the Ripper on the way so I think I'll try another company this time. So that leaves out plush berry and Querkle and deep purple.

My top choices now are:
RP purple OG #18
RP purple wreck
GDP Grand Daddy Purple (is this the same as Ken's GDP?)
BC Depot the Purps

Any other purple bud suggestions out there?

Listen to Budologist420. Ken's Grand Daddy Purple is awesome. It is a typical indica with a knockout punch, but an easy grow with excellent bag appeal. I would say out of my 10 seeds I finally found a mother that is a consistent dark purple like the photo. It has above average yields and every leaf besides the fans are frosty and that was under a 400w HPS. I am about 4 weeks into my cloned mother's babies flowering now under my 1kw HPS. The bud is already purple and of course most of the leaf is as well. It is super dense and resistant to almost everything. I actually had 9 plants go without light flowering for 5 days(circuit breaker blew on vacation for the first time ever) and they bounced back in 2 days and fully recovered by the end of the week with very little damage. If you haven't had Ken's GDP then you need too!
mind posting pictures for some bud porn?

I did not find it to so typical an Indica. It had some uplifting feeling with it as well. I think it is Indica dominate but not a fully sedative high. Strong but not a 'ko' type high for me. Balanced.

Made me feel good as opposed to just stoned. Mood lifter in it, for me anyways.

Ken's GDP is the 'official' GDP. I have read from a few people that others are the real one, but Ken's strain does the job for me, so I am done looking as far as GDP is concerned.

The purple wreck looks awesome. I may have to go purple OG 18 just for the extra bonus though if I go Reserva. Tough choice.... Starting with the original and maybe getting an Urkle of my own might be nice too. I'm getting a pack of JTR from TGA in this week and I can't wait to see what happens with that. I'm not gonna wait long to place my next order which will be the purple choice.

Thanks for all the help and suggestions out there.

If anyone has there own experience with an amazing or awful purple strain please feel free to share your opinion and pictures of your results here.

Yeh no prob...by the way if youre after the purple colour maybe the pw could not be your top choice (strong tw influence), you have to spot the urkle pheno however it wont be pure purpleness, on the other side seems that all the phenos are ass-kicking...Deep purple or querkle from TGA maybe would be better choices for the colour an the urkleness...About the purple OG18 really dont know many top shelf genetics in this cross, sure bet but maybe a little more variability in the phenos...I have yet to see a grow smoke rep but i am sure that will be some fire...However i donno where u live but i highly suggest to grow purple strains in the cold seasons so you can drop your temps to 60s in the last weeks to bring out the purple genetic potential at the max !!

Popped a five pack of TGA Qrazy Train and am loving them!! Got 3 females;all TW pheno. Qt is very easily propagated, solid throughout veg, great resin production, and flower formation!! Great smells at day 22, so just gotta see how things finish to decide if she's a keeper!! TGA gear is all that I will rock in my medical garden!!

TGA is great. I just haven't tried many other companies and want to see what the rest of the world its up to. I've already tried vortex and dairy queen and Chernobyl. All awesome. Similar lineage though with the space queen. Got some JTR on the way as I mentioned before. Can't wait to check it out! Post some pics of the qrazy train if you can. Would love to see the results when its finished.
