Purple Dream
Purple Dream
Overview
Purple Dream is a cross between Blue Dream and Grand Daddy Purple, creating a medical cannabis strain with 60% sativa and 40% indica genetics. It was for a long time clone-only, but now Purple Dream is accessible to all. The strain exhibits mild but effective indica-dominant hybrid characteristics, though some sources also describe it as sativa-dominant depending on the specific phenotype and breeder. The plant develops bushy and branchy structure with long leaves and demonstrates purple colors if temperatures drop at the end of the blooming. The bud is dark green with many flecks of dark brown and a light dusting of trichomes.
Purple Dream is particularly effective for pain relief without the sedative effects due to its sativa side, making it perfect for managing pain with a clear head. It's an old school strain that has helped fuel the purple flower obsessions for decades now, with people still clamoring for information about how Purple Dream smells and tastes and how it hits. The taste and smell are both reminiscent of berries, flowers, and pine trees, offering sour flavours, piney notes, and sweet fruity undertones, with purple berries on the exhale.

Growing Information
Purple Dream is considered a moderately easy cannabis strain to grow. It will not be straightforward for beginner growers, but with some knowledge about the strain, you can look forward to a successful harvest. The flowering period takes 9-11 weeks and the harvest produces up to 450 gr/m2. This purple strain can be grown indoors and outdoors. However, if you want to bring the purple out of these plants, you need to control the temperature and should opt for indoor growing. It is ideal choice for SCROG methods and benefits from regular pruning for better light penetration due to the bushy nature and branchy structure. The yield from outdoor grows is 2 to 3 ounces per square foot. Indoors a grower can expect anywhere from 1 to 2 ounces per square foot.
