Look like the rest in the background. Nice gift. The purple is cool looking and all but it really honestly means ....well....it`s purple....no more !i
 
Many strains of weed are genetically purple. BUT, if the temps are very cold during flowering it'll turn the buds purple.
Idiot dealers do this so they can jack up the price, so if your buying its hard to tell whether you're actually smoking purple genetics or just a cold flowered bud.

False. Purple is in the genetics. Cold temps can cause purple spots or pistils, but not full on purple buds.


Nice looking bud. :) I'm not a fan of purple strains to smoke personally.. but they sure are pretty to look at!!
 
Nah this is def a purple strain, friend has been growing for a while. Few months ago he gave me some northern lights, it was all green.

I agree. The only qualities I really enjoy in purple strains are usually taste/smell and or smoothness. I don't like to trade those qualities for potency though so I tend not to actively pursue or choose purple strains.

I grew some purple erkle and it finished in 50 days. great yield, pretty buds, good smell/taste...
It is not strong at all.

The best purple variety I have smoked is Grandaddy Purple and that is probably the least purple of the purple varieties.
 
some clowns around here flush w/ ice water trying to get purple........ Some peoples children-geeze-

Looks like purple urkle(sp). I'm gonna attach an old pic from last year that was a blueberry hybrid, also the prettiest plant I have ever grown. Unfortunately, it wasn't as potent as it looks.

I remember when the purple fad started. Everyone claiming it to be the best, strongest smoke out there. I constantly kept explaining to them that purple buds are typically a sign of lower quality. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy. People cashing in on a marketing scam. Funny thing is there's still lots of people out there that still think the same thing- purple's the best and it cost more. Fricken Dealers.
 
If you feed your plant milk and purple Gatorade the last 2 weeks of the grow, you will get purple bud.

True story. Fin taught me that.
