Purple Supreme
Also known as: Purple Supreme OG, Supreme Purple
What is the Purple Supreme strain?
Purple Supreme is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and earthy flavor profile.
Purple Supreme is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its distinctive purple coloration and potent effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat uncertain, with multiple breeders claiming development, but it is generally believed to have emerged in the early 2010s from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Purple Supreme represents a carefully selected phenotype from a broader purple cannabis family, bred specifically for enhanced coloration, aroma, and therapeutic potential.
The strain is characterized by its striking visual appearance, featuring dense, resinous buds that display deep purple and violet hues, often accented with vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of crystalline trichomes. These colors result from anthocyanin pigments that develop in response to cooler temperatures during the flowering phase. The plant typically exhibits a compact, bushy structure common to indica varieties, with broad leaves that may also show purple undertones.
Purple Supreme has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its balanced effects and complex aromatic profile. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, it has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate visually distinctive varieties with relaxing properties. The strain's relative rarity compared to more commercial varieties contributes to its appeal among connoisseurs seeking unique genetic expressions.

How do you grow Purple Supreme?
Purple Supreme is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to maximize its color potential. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments but shows its most vibrant purple coloration when exposed to cooler nighttime temperatures (approximately 10-15°C or 50-59°F) during the final 2-3 weeks of flowering. Plants typically reach a medium height of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Purple Supreme responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to manage height and improve light penetration. The strain has moderate resistance to common pests and molds but requires good air circulation to prevent bud rot in dense colas. Nutrient requirements are average, with some growers recommending slightly reduced nitrogen during flowering to enhance color development.
