Blurple Urkle
Also known as: Blurple Urkel, Blurple Urple
Blurple Urkle Strain Overview
Blurple Urkle is a relatively rare indica-dominant hybrid strain that represents a modern interpretation of the classic Urkle lineage. The strain is believed to have been developed by crossing the legendary Granddaddy Purple (itself a descendant of Purple Urkle) with an undisclosed blueberry strain, though exact breeding details remain somewhat obscure in the cannabis community. This combination was designed to enhance the visual appeal and flavor profile while maintaining the deeply relaxing effects characteristic of its Purple Urkle ancestry.
The strain is named for its distinctive appearance, which combines the deep purple hues of its Urkle heritage with blueberry-influenced coloration, creating a 'blurple' visual effect. Blurple Urkle typically produces dense, resinous buds with a complex color palette ranging from forest green to deep violet, often accented with fiery orange pistils and a generous coating of frosty trichomes. The visual presentation is one of its most notable features, making it particularly appealing to connoisseurs who appreciate photogenic cannabis varieties.
While not as widely documented as its parent strains, Blurple Urkle has developed a niche following among indica enthusiasts who seek both aesthetic appeal and potent relaxation. The strain represents a continuation of the Purple Urkle legacy while introducing new genetic elements that modify its expression. Like many modern hybrids with complex lineage, precise historical records are limited, and much of the information available comes from grower reports and community knowledge rather than formal breeding documentation.

Blurple Urkle Strain Growing Information
Blurple Urkle is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to maximize its color expression and resin production. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor growers can expect moderate to high yields with proper care, while outdoor plants may produce more substantial harvests in optimal conditions.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment where temperature can be manipulated to enhance color development, particularly during the final weeks of flowering when cooler nighttime temperatures (around 60-65°F/15-18°C) can intensify the purple and blue hues. Plants tend to remain relatively compact, reaching heights of 3-4 feet indoors and 4-6 feet outdoors, making them suitable for space-limited grows. Blurple Urkle responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to increase yield and light penetration.
Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold in the dense buds, and providing adequate phosphorus during the flowering phase to support bud development. The strain's color expression is genetically influenced but can be enhanced through temperature manipulation and proper nutrient balance. Growers should note that phenotype variation may occur, with some plants expressing more purple characteristics than others.
