Purple Fig
What is the Purple Fig strain?
Purple Fig is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and fruity flavor profile.
Purple Fig is a slightly indica-dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through a three-way cross of Romulan × Snow Leopard × #11. Bred by Fig Farms, this strain emerged from the West Coast craft scene during the late-2010s wave of purple-fuel hybrids, with growers and buyers in California and Colorado reporting "figgy" grape-and-gas cuts circulating through clone exchanges and small-batch drops. Named for its gorgeous appearance and delicious flavor, Purple Fig has beautiful airy diamond-shaped minty green nugs with deep purple undertones, furry thin orange hairs and a coating of tiny, purple-tinted white crystal trichomes. The strain is visually striking, boasting vivid purple hues dominated by deep violet and rich plum tones, with buds that are often irregularly shaped and densely packed with resin. As you pull apart each sparkling nugget, aromas of crispy tropical citrus, spicy hash and sweet fruity figs are released, with a sweet fruity overtone accented by sour citrus, woody pine and a spicy hash exhale.

How do you grow Purple Fig?
Purple Fig grows vigorously in veg and forms dense, resin-packed colas in flower. Indoors, expect an average flowering window of 8–9 weeks (56–63 days) from the flip, with some gassy phenos preferring 63–70 days for full terpene and resin maturity. Outdoor growers in temperate climates should target a mid-to-late October harvest, keeping a close eye on botrytis due to the cultivar's density. Growth habit is medium height with strong lateral shoots; topping once at the 5th node and low-stress training (LST) can create an even canopy. A Screen of Green (ScrOG) approach helps support heavy colas and maximizes light interception. Indoors, dialed growers can expect 450–600 g/m² in optimized ScrOG systems, with exceptional gassy phenos reaching higher under CO₂ enrichment. Outdoors in full sun and healthy soil, 600–900 g per plant is achievable. The strain can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments. Growing difficulty is considered moderate to advanced due to its density and susceptibility to humidity issues.
