Purgatory
What is the Purgatory strain?
Purgatory is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and blueberry and citrus flavor profile.
Purgatory is a predominantly indica-dominant hybrid strain (80% indica/20% sativa) created through crossing Hell's OG and Querkle strains. Originally bred by SubCool's The Dank (formerly TGA Genetics), this strain was developed from the genetics library that survived the devastating Northern California wildfires of 2017. The strain represents a continuation of SubCool's legacy breeding work, combining the potent characteristics of both parent strains. Purgatory is renowned for its crystal-coated, diamond-shining appearance and exceptionally sticky resin production. The buds are characteristically dense and pepper-shaped with forest green coloration, dark purple undertones, and abundant thin orange pistils. The entire plant structure is covered in chunky, purple-tinted white crystal trichomes, creating an almost frosted appearance. Known for its heavy-hitting effects and robust outdoor growing capabilities, Purgatory can develop massive outdoor plants with thick trunk-like stalks capable of supporting large, glistening colas.
