Purple Bud Feminized is a cannabis strain that predominantly produces plants with purple flowers. It was developed by breeding an Afghan-Jamaican cross with a double Kush hybrid. As a result, Purple Bud Feminized offers large yields and a stimulating but relaxing effect. The plants often produce striking purple flowers under most growing conditions. It is easy to cultivate indoors or outdoors, even in cold climates with short summers.
The growth of Purple Bud
The plants are typically Indica in terms of growth structure, with sturdy, short stems and branches.
However, they are a little taller than the average Indicas, which betrays their Sativa component. Purple Bud Feminized can be kept compact with a short vegetation phase; alternatively, the plants can grow taller if this phase is extended.
The strain is robust and can withstand most minor cultivation problems. Beginners can also achieve good results with this cannabis strain; alongside White Skunk, it is an excellent choice for novices.
Purple Bud Feminized has a short flowering time, with a flowering cycle of around 9 weeks. During this time, a considerable amount of purple-colored buds will be visible around the nodes and on the stem and branches. The buds are dense, firm and pointed, with a thick coating of trichomes.
As with all purple cannabis strains, the leaves and flowers turn purple when exposed to lower temperatures. As each plant is different, some will always remain green. This is due to natural variation and is a characteristic of this type of cannabis.
However, the Purple Bud family has been carefully grown to maximize color. Many plants exhibit purple tones when the flowering phase ends. Some even have purple-colored leaves, but others have green leaves that contrast beautifully with the purple cannabis flowers.
Purple Bud Feminized grows well indoors, but can also be grown outdoors in temperate and continental climates. When planted outdoors in spring, Purple Bud Feminized can reach considerable heights for a "compact" plant and is likely to produce an excellent harvest. Low temperatures will cause the plants to turn more purple as flowering progresses, resulting in a colorful harvest of dense buds.
The effect of Purple Bud
The strain has a long-lasting effect. It is cheerful and relaxed - perfect for consumption in a group or alone. Thanks to its indica/sativa heritage, Purple Bud Feminized initially provides a stimulating high. This gradually develops into a deeply relaxing feeling that can last for several hours or longer. Some consumers say that the strain is a good option for the evening, as it has a pleasantly soporific effect. However, larger amounts can have the opposite effect and make the mind more active.
Smell and taste of Purple Bud
Purple Bud Feminized has the classic earthy smell of an indica hybrid, combined with an herbal sweetness and blueberry notes. This aroma becomes more intense when the plant begins to flower.
When consumed, the sweet notes come through strongly. They are balanced by a spicy pine note. Some consumers vaporize the buds to fully release the aromas.
