Also known as: Purple Kracken
What is the Purple Kraken strain?
Purple Kraken is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 18.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and berry and chemical flavor profile.
Purple Kraken is a rare hybrid cannabis strain that appears to be a variation of the legendary Kraken strain, with different breeders creating their own versions. The most documented version comes from Trichome Orchards, created by crossing Purple Arcana (Dantes Inferno x Specimen X No.8) with Chimera #3 as the reversal parent, with a flowering time of approximately 67 days. Trichome Orchards is based in Western Canada and specializes in small batch cultivars, working with pheno-hunted in-house selections and elite clones. The base Kraken strain that inspired Purple Kraken variations was developed by Spanish breeder Buddha Seeds and is known for its mysterious genetics of unknown parentage, though some speculate it may be a distant member of the Kush family due to its earthy floral aroma. Purple Kraken exhibits expected colors of greens, purples, and pinks, with a chemical, floral, and sweet berry nose, and anticipated flavors of floral, acetone, and berries. The strain represents an evolution of the original Kraken genetics, incorporating purple phenotypes and enhanced resin production that appeals to both recreational and medicinal users seeking potent effects with distinctive visual appeal.
