Purple Bisho
Also known as: Purple Bishop
What is the Purple Bisho strain?
Purple Bisho is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and earthy flavor profile.
Purple Bisho is a relatively rare cannabis hybrid strain that has gained attention for its distinctive coloration and balanced effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with limited documentation available from breeders, but it appears to have emerged from boutique breeding circles in the early 2010s. Its name likely references both its purple pigmentation and a possible connection to the 'Bishop' lineage, though this remains speculative without verified breeding records.
The strain is characterized by its visually striking appearance, featuring dense, resinous buds that display a spectrum of colors from deep forest green to vibrant purple and violet hues. These colors are most pronounced in cooler growing conditions, where anthocyanin pigments become more prominent. The buds are typically coated in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and are often accented with fiery orange pistils. The aroma profile combines sweet, fruity notes with earthy undertones and a hint of spice.
Purple Bisho is noted for producing a well-rounded experience that begins with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to physical relaxation. The effects are generally described as moderate in intensity rather than overwhelming, making it accessible to a range of consumers. While not as widely available as mainstream commercial strains, Purple Bisho has developed a niche following among connoisseurs who appreciate its aesthetic qualities and balanced hybrid effects. Due to its relative rarity, consistent phenotype expression can vary between different growers and seed batches.

How do you grow Purple Bisho?
Purple Bisho is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. The strain responds well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though indoor growing allows better control over the temperature conditions that enhance its purple coloration. Plants tend to be of medium height, with indoor plants reaching 3-4 feet and outdoor plants potentially growing to 5-6 feet. Yield is moderate, with indoor growers typically harvesting 1.5-2 ounces per square foot under optimal conditions. Special considerations include maintaining cooler nighttime temperatures (around 60-65°F) during the flowering stage to encourage purple pigmentation. The plants benefit from regular pruning to improve airflow and light penetration to lower bud sites. Purple Bisho shows good resistance to common molds and pests but requires careful nutrient management as it can be sensitive to overfeeding.
