Purpz by Humboldt Seed Company

Purpz Strain Info

If you thought purple buds were just a gimmick or a nutrient mistake, it’s time to unlearn that myth and meet the Purpz strain.

This beauty is all about authentic color, insane yield, and unapologetic flavor, bred by the legends at Humboldt Seed Company.

Forget fake dyes or deficiencies—those vivid purples and pinks come straight from nature, thanks to anthocyanin, the same antioxidant that gives blueberries and grapes their rich hues.

The lineage behind this masterpiece is no joke: Garlic Budder x GMO x CF-50, carefully phenohunted at Casa Flor to pull out the dankest, gassiest, most visually stunning traits possible.

The result is a strain that hits like a freight train and looks like it walked off a high-fashion runway.

These are feminized cannabis seeds, so expect all girls—no surprises, just production power.

She grows tall, proud, and stacked, throwing out dense, golf ball-sized buds that sparkle with trichomes and require minimal trimming.

Even machine-trimmed, the Purpz keeps her charm intact—imagine that deep purple frost shimmering under the light, wrapped in sweet onion and fuel aromas.

It’s the kind of bag appeal that turns heads and makes jaws drop.

Flowering Time & Yield

This isn’t one of those strains that make you wait forever—flowering wraps up in around 60 days, with outdoor harvests ready between September 25th and October 5th.

And when it’s time to chop, Purpz doesn’t disappoint—indoor growers can pull up to 550 grams/m² (19.4 oz/yd²) of sticky purple goodness.

Outdoor plants go beast mode, yielding up to 900 grams (31.7 oz) per plant if you let them stretch their legs.

She performed so well in trials that she took first place at Oregon’s Leaf Bowl 2023 for indoor—no small feat in one of the most competitive cannabis arenas out there.

If you're into rosin, this strain crushed it during testing, averaging a whopping 5% return—that’s resin you can practically hear sizzle.

Effects and Aroma

The nose on this one is wild—inhaling garlic and exhaling fuel might sound weird, but once you try it, it’s impossible to forget.

There's a funky sweetness underneath it all too, like a caramelized onion hiding in the shadows of a garage full of diesel barrels.

Light it up and let the effect hit—an energizing, almost ethereal high that makes your mind lift and your body hum.

This isn’t the kind of strain that glues you to the couch—it gets you moving, vibing, and floating through your day with a grin.

Perfect for creative work, social moments, or just staring at the purple frost while your thoughts wander.

THC levels haven’t been revealed yet, but judging by the punch this one packs, it’s definitely no lightweight.

CBD isn't the focus here—it’s all about that euphoric, flavorful, purple-powered ride.

Grow Tips & Our Take

If you're growing outdoors, give Purpz plenty of space and sun—she loves to stretch tall and reward big.

She's not picky with climates either, but she thrives best in temperate to warm regions where humidity stays in check.

What really impressed us is her natural resistance to mold, mildew, and common pests, making her a solid choice for growers who want less drama in the garden.

Whether in a greenhouse, a sunny backyard, or an indoor setup, this strain adapts and performs like a champ.

She’s easy to manage for a plant that grows so big, and the upright structure makes light penetration and airflow almost effortless.

We’d say she sits comfortably in the medium difficulty range—beginners can handle her with care, and pros can push her to the max.

What really blows our minds every time is how those purple buds stay stunning even after trimming, especially when most strains lose their sparkle after a rough machine job.

She's a true showstopper—not just pretty, but productive, tough, and full of personality.

Purpz FAQ

Is Purpz sativa or indica?

Purpz is an indica-dominant hybrid, which means it carries more of the physical traits and effects associated with indica strains, but still has a bit of that hybrid balance.

Indicas usually grow shorter and bushier, with broad leaves and faster flowering times, while sativas tend to be taller, slower to flower, and produce more cerebral effects.

Purpz keeps the indica structure and quick finish, but delivers a more uplifting and energetic high than a typical couch-lock strain.

Does Purpz really turn purple?

Yes, absolutely—this strain was bred specifically to showcase vivid purples and pinks, thanks to the presence of anthocyanins.

These natural pigments are the same found in grapes and blueberries, and they show up beautifully in cooler nighttime temperatures.

Is Purpz good for beginners?

Purpz is a medium-difficulty strain, so with a bit of attention and care, even newer growers can get great results.

She’s not overly sensitive and handles common issues well, but her size and resin production might be a bit much for absolute first-timers.

What’s the best climate to grow Purpz?

She performs best in temperate to warm climates where humidity stays under control, especially during late flowering.

Thanks to her mold and mildew resistance, she also does well in greenhouses and outdoors in regions with mild autumns.

How much rosin can I get from Purpz?

During trials, Purpz delivered an impressive average return of 5% in rosin extraction, making it one of the top choices for solventless lovers.
