Oaxacan Purps
Also known as: Oaxacan Purple, Oaxaca Purps
Oaxacan Purps Strain Overview
Oaxacan Purps is a hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from the Oaxacan region of Mexico with modern purple varieties. The strain represents a contemporary interpretation of traditional Mexican landrace genetics, specifically those originating from the mountainous Oaxaca region known for producing distinctive cannabis varieties. Breeders have crossed these heirloom genetics with purple phenotypes to create a strain that honors its heritage while offering enhanced visual appeal and potency.
The strain typically displays dense, conical buds with a striking color palette ranging from deep forest green to vibrant purple hues, often accentuated by bright orange pistils. The purple coloration is most pronounced in cooler growing conditions, where anthocyanin pigments become more prominent. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, indicating substantial resin production. The aroma profile combines earthy, herbal notes characteristic of Mexican landraces with sweet berry undertones from the purple genetics.
Oaxacan Purps is noted for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to physical relaxation. The strain has gained popularity among connoisseurs interested in landrace preservation and those seeking a connection to traditional cannabis genetics. While not as widely available as commercial hybrids, it maintains a dedicated following among growers and users who appreciate its heritage and distinctive characteristics.

Oaxacan Purps Strain Growing Information
Oaxacan Purps is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant typically flowers in 8-10 weeks indoors and is ready for harvest by late September to early October outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in optimal conditions. The strain performs well both indoors and outdoors but thrives in warm, Mediterranean-like climates with plenty of sunlight. Plants tend to reach medium height (4-6 feet outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping or low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration. Cooler nighttime temperatures during the flowering phase (around 60-65°F/15-18°C) enhance purple coloration. The strain shows good resistance to common molds and pests but requires adequate airflow in dense canopy areas.
