Fast Purple
Also known as: Fast Purple Auto, Fast Purple Feminized
What is the Fast Purple strain?
Fast Purple is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and earthy flavor profile.
Fast Purple is a hybrid cannabis strain developed primarily for its rapid flowering time and distinctive purple coloration. The strain was created by crossing a Purple Kush phenotype with a fast-flowering Ruderalis hybrid, resulting in a plant that combines the visual appeal and relaxing effects of Purple Kush with the autoflowering characteristics and shorter life cycle of Ruderalis genetics. This breeding approach makes Fast Purple particularly suitable for growers in cooler climates or those seeking quicker harvest cycles.
The strain typically exhibits dense, resinous buds that develop deep purple hues, especially when exposed to cooler temperatures during the late flowering stage. The purple coloration results from anthocyanin pigments that become more pronounced under specific environmental conditions. Fast Purple plants are generally compact and bushy, with dark green leaves that may also show purple undertones. The buds are often covered in a frosty layer of trichomes, giving them a sparkling appearance that contrasts with the deep purple coloration.
Notable features of Fast Purple include its relatively short flowering period of approximately 7-8 weeks from seed to harvest for autoflowering versions, or 8-9 weeks for photoperiod feminized varieties. The strain's aroma combines sweet berry notes with earthy undertones, while the flavor profile typically includes fruity and floral elements with a smooth smoke. Due to its balanced genetic heritage, Fast Purple offers effects that many users describe as both physically relaxing and mentally uplifting, making it suitable for evening use.

How do you grow Fast Purple?
Fast Purple is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, suitable for both novice and experienced growers. The autoflowering versions typically complete their life cycle in 9-10 weeks from seed to harvest, while photoperiod feminized varieties flower in 8-9 weeks. Indoor plants usually reach heights of 80-100 cm, while outdoor plants can grow slightly taller at 100-130 cm. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though outdoor cultivation in cooler climates may enhance the purple coloration. Expected yields are moderate to high: indoor growers can anticipate 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants may produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Fast Purple is relatively resistant to common molds and pests but benefits from good air circulation. The plants respond well to training techniques like low-stress training (LST) and can handle cooler nighttime temperatures during flowering, which often intensifies the purple pigmentation.
