What is the Purple Dragon Kush strain?
Purple Dragon Kush is a indica cannabis strain, known for its relaxed effects and berry and earthy flavor profile.
Purple Dragon Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Love Genetics, representing their first major commercial release. Created through crossing Purple Widow with Dragon OG (an OG Kush bag seed male), this strain exhibits a complex genetic heritage that combines Pakistani ancestry with California Kush genetics. The Dragon OG parent was notably distinctive for its purple-headed hydra appearance that earned the plant its name, while the Purple Widow mother contributed long-flowering characteristics and sweet licorice scenting. Purple Dragon Kush is characterized by its striking visual appearance, featuring black-jade leaves and long pistils that resemble miniature flames. Several phenotypes display flat stems, a rare trait that harks back to the strain's Pakistani ancestry. The majority of phenotypes produce aromatic profiles dominated by grape candy, OG Kush, and hash scents, with some particularly notable phenotypes offering candy-coated licorice aromatics combined with flavors of candy, berries, and Cheese Skunk. This strain is noted for being distinct from the separately developed Purple Dragon strain.
