Maui Wowie x Purple Urkle
Also known as: Maui Urkle, Purple Maui
Maui Wowie x Purple Urkle Strain Overview
Maui Wowie x Purple Urkle is a hybrid cannabis strain resulting from the crossbreeding of two classic cultivars: the sativa-dominant Maui Wowie and the indica-dominant Purple Urkle. This strain combines the tropical characteristics of its Hawaiian parent with the deep purple coloration and relaxing effects of its Urkle lineage. The exact origins of this cross are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming to have developed it during the early 2000s as part of the 'purple strain' trend that swept through cannabis cultivation circles.
The strain typically displays a striking visual appearance, with dense, resinous buds that often exhibit deep purple hues, particularly in cooler growing conditions. These purple tones contrast with vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. The leaves may show various shades of green with purple undertones. The aroma profile is complex, blending sweet tropical fruit notes from the Maui Wowie parent with the grape and berry undertones characteristic of Purple Urkle.
Maui Wowie x Purple Urkle is noted for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to physical relaxation. The flowering time is typically 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. While not an extremely rare strain, it is less commonly available than its parent strains and is often sought by enthusiasts interested in classic genetics with modern cultivation characteristics.

Maui Wowie x Purple Urkle Strain Growing Information
Maui Wowie x Purple Urkle is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready in mid to late October in the northern hemisphere. Indoor yields are moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in optimal conditions. The strain prefers a Mediterranean climate when grown outdoors and responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods. Plants tend to be medium in height, with indica-dominant structure but some sativa stretching during flowering. To enhance purple coloration, growers can expose plants to cooler nighttime temperatures (around 10-15°C) during the final weeks of flowering. The strain has moderate resistance to common molds and pests but benefits from good air circulation.
