Strain: Purple Confidential (Purps x LA Confidential)
Recommended experience level: Beginner to Intermediate
Female: Purps
About the mother:
Overview:
- True hybrid growth pattern, nice vigorous growth but not stretchy, plump full nuggets, and a purple hue that comes out during the flushing of the plants before harvest. The flavor is sweet and fruity with skunky undertones.
Yield: Medium High
- 300-700g / 1000W
Flowering time:
- 60-65 days.
Growth stature: Medium to med/ tall
- Vigorous growth combined with a manageable height, only stretches about 12 inches once flipped to 12/12 light cycle. This strain yields best with multiple tops, but is versatile enough for just about any method.
Nugget type and density:
- Plump and fluffy nuggets with medium internodal spacing.
Unique strain traits and oddities of mother:
Purpling can be enhanced by the following:
- Begin flush 10-14 days before harvest, this will allow the chlorophyll time to breakdown and the natural purple pigments to come out
- Create a 20 degree F temperature swing between day and night cycle (i.e. if your flower room runs 85deg while lights are on, cool it during the night cycle to a temp of 65deg)
Why we chose her:
- True hybrid vigor, and purpling trait were the big factor aside from our usual criteria for selecting the Purps as a mother.
Traits to look for in ideal phenotype:
