What is the Purple Chem strain?
Purple Chem is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 21.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and chemical and citrus flavor profile.
Purple Chem is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that results from crossing the legendary Chemdawg 91 (specifically the Chem 91 Skunk VA clone) with Pre-98 Bubba Kush genetics, typically in a 75% indica to 25% sativa ratio. Developed by The Cali Connection, this strain achieved significant recognition in the cannabis community, winning first place for Best Indica at the 2016 Los Angeles Cannabis Cup and second place at the 2016 Michigan Cannabis Cup. The strain is renowned for its striking visual appeal, featuring dense, fluffy buds with bright neon green coloration, purple undertones, and thick orange and blue hairs, all covered in a fine layer of trichomes and sweet resin. Purple Chem exhibits a complex aromatic profile that combines the diesel and chemical characteristics of its Chemdawg heritage with sweet grape notes from the Bubba lineage, creating a pungent aroma with sour grape, diesel, and spicy herbal undertones. From a cultivation standpoint, Purple Chem demonstrates vigorous growth with a flowering time of 58-65 days and can produce substantial yields, especially when grown hydroponically, with indoor yields reaching up to 700g per square meter and outdoor harvests of 600-850g per plant.
