Purple Freeze Kush
Also known as: Purple Freeze, Freeze Kush
Purple Freeze Kush Strain Overview
Purple Freeze Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity among enthusiasts for its striking visual appearance and potent effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat uncertain, though it appears to be a cross between Purple Kush and an unknown freezing or frost-related strain, possibly involving genetics from the Hindu Kush region. Breeders likely developed this variety to combine the deep purple coloration and relaxing properties of Purple Kush with enhanced resin production and frosty trichome coverage.
The strain is characterized by dense, chunky buds that display a remarkable color palette ranging from deep forest green to vibrant purple hues, often with bright orange pistils weaving through the flower structure. A thick coating of crystalline trichomes gives the buds a frosty, frozen appearance that inspired the 'Freeze' portion of its name. The visual appeal is further enhanced by the contrast between the purple calyxes and white trichome coverage, making it particularly photogenic and sought after by both consumers and growers.
Purple Freeze Kush is known for its complex aromatic profile that combines earthy, Kush-like base notes with sweet berry undertones and subtle hints of pine. The flavor experience typically mirrors the aroma, with a smooth smoke that carries through to the exhale. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Purple Freeze Kush has developed a dedicated following among indica enthusiasts who appreciate its balanced effects and aesthetic qualities.

Purple Freeze Kush Strain Growing Information
Purple Freeze Kush is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant typically flowers in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready around late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. It prefers a controlled indoor environment where temperature can be manipulated to enhance purple coloration through cooler nighttime temperatures (around 10-15°C differential).
Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in suitable climates. The plant maintains a relatively compact, bushy structure typical of indica varieties, reaching heights of 90-120 cm indoors and 120-180 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold in the dense buds, and implementing temperature stress techniques if seeking maximum purple coloration. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods.
