Genetics and origin
Purple is the result of a careful European selection and cross of strains from various parts of the world — optimised for cooler climates, short seasons and easy growing. Among purple weed seeds and purple marijuana seeds, the Purple Pyramid strain stands out for its early harvest and fruity profile. Unlike the American purple lines (Purple Urkle, Mendocino Purple Kush), this strain was developed specifically for temperate conditions: an early harvest, robust genetics, predictable results. Part of the Rare Cannabis Seeds collection.
Effects
As a balanced 50/50 hybrid, Purple offers a two-phase effect:
- Euphoric start — the sativa share gives a pleasant mood lift and serenity
- Physical relaxation — the indica share brings deep muscle relaxation without full couch-lock
- Balanced serenity — ideal for the evening or creative moments
Aroma and terpene profile
The aroma profile of Purple is clear and inviting: an intense forest-berry character with ripe fruit notes and a sweet finish. Clearly fruitier and more accessible than the American purple lines — ideal for anyone looking for an uncomplicated, pleasant purple profile.
| Terpene | Typical impressions | Contribution to the profile |
|---|
| Myrcene | Earthy, fruity, sweet | A fruity base, supports relaxation |
| Caryophyllene | Spicy, peppery, warm | Spicy depth, balances the berry sweetness |
| Linalool | Floral, slightly sweet | A floral note, calming |
