Purple Cactus
Purple Cactus Strain Overview
Purple Cactus is a pure indica strain developed by In-House Genetics through crossing Purple Hulk (Double Purple Doja × Purple Diesel × 501st OG × Platinum) and Cactus (Afghani × Northern Lights). This strain represents an intriguing blend of modern polyhybrid genetics with classic heritage, combining Kush and Diesel influences with rich Afghan lineage. Purple Cactus gets its name not only from its genetic heritage but also from its visual appearance, featuring beautifully colored purple hues throughout the buds complemented by a thick coating of crystal trichomes. The strain displays dense, resin-coated buds that live up to their namesake with striking coloration.
Known for its high myrcene content, Purple Cactus offers an intensely relaxing experience that tends to produce sedating effects. Users commonly report powerful numbing sensations that may help with bodily tension and discomfort, alongside mental calming properties. The strain is noted for inducing the munchies and providing a euphoric yet deeply relaxing high. The complex flavor profile features spicy notes with hints of petrol on the inhale, reminiscent of Chemdawg genetics, while maintaining the classic herbal myrcene scent. There are also floral touches with spicy elements due to the presence of terpinolene, creating an exquisite and varied taste experience.
