im looking to purchase some seeds and im looking for the most purple looking bud i can get! (preferably Indica) anyone have any experiences with ~
Blue Mystic?
Blueberry?
Aurora Indica?
Purple Haze?
or any others that turn out with a nice color?
- So color is of primary importance to you? do you want dark purple and lots of it? go for BC Bud Depot "the purps" which is basically Mendo purps, or "the black," the latter is supposed to be so dark it nearly turns black. Lavender from Soma Seeds is supposedly similar in that regard... very very dark purple. If you want something a little prettier with a mix of green and purple, I think Purple Haze is kinda lime green with lavender tips on the calyxes... Magus genetics makes a plant called Exile, its 50% Warlock, which is one of the better Indicas, and many breeders use it's genetics, 25% Northern lights and 25% white widow. Its not totally purple, but it looks like it has electric lime green calyxes and Bright royal purple sugar leaves that have distinct lime green veins running up the shock of purple that is the sugar leaf itself. you can find pictures on the internet at seed banks, many show pictures of thier product and most competently run websites are legitimate. I got a buddy named Rugburn Bill, who is way older than me (who knows an old hippie grower, he's been cookin up some strain for almost 30 years) and that shit is lime green, with lavender sugar leaves... completely covered in trichs the hairs actually cure to a bright pink color instead of reddish brown... fucking amazing. It only comes around once a year, and you gotta pretty much know someone who knows him AND call the wone week out of the year it's available. Usually I cant get more than an eighth... last year I got a whole OZ of it for $300!!!!! god the advantages of having good middlemen you can trust or just knowing a grower yourself!!!
- If you are really looking for dark dark purple go woth Lavender or The Blacks, otherwise try exile or any other purple variety you like the look of. Keep in mind that Indicas (purple weed) usually has a higher CBD content, which can turn the THC "high" into a body "stone" so if you care about more than just looks, i would go with a good hybrid that contains some sativa genetics but still shows some of the purple of it's indica heritage. It can have better baf appeal than just dark purple and also can add some sativa head high onto that indica body stone. hoe that helped. look at sensibleseeds.com or check out dope-seeds.com or the attitude, all good, will ship to USA and provide pictures of most strains from many reputable seed farms. I've found that because of the short flowering time required to grow outdoors combined with a short growing season makes seeds from Vancouver, or greater Canada in general, generally Indica, making them purple, most likely.
-It is true that not all Indicas are purple, but I have heard that cooler temperatures at night during the last couple weeks of flowering can bring out alot of purple in many indica varieties. Out of the four you listed, I would only go with blueberry. Honestly I want to get this shit called Bonkers, from next gen seed co in vancouver. It's supposed to be some gnarly outdoors shit and some of the pictures i've seen... they are purple, green, red, yellow, and of course white with trichs i mean, it's crazy. I think there really is something to the low temp thing. If you grow outdoors, it should happen naturally if you live north enough. Indoors, well..... a cheap air conditioning unit is $100. is the color worth that much to you? I'm personally thinking of doing it because I've got some dank indica that turns purp when exposed to low temps, and its a 70 degree growroom, doesn't get below 60 at night... during the summer, anyway. what does anyone else think? I'll start a thread.
