Purple Octopus

Purple Octopus is a sativa dominant hybrid (60% sativa/40% indica) strain with a character all of its own. This infamous bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 15-21% on average, with 0.4% CBD. It is sold as feminized seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

Users describe the Purple Octopus high as an immediate uplifting cerebral rush that sharpens focus and sets off waves of creative energy, keeping you motivated and sociable without weighing down the body. Underneath the mental charge, a mellow body calm keeps things comfortable, taking the edge off without ever slowing you down. These combined effects make Purple Octopus a frequent pick among patients dealing with mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Purple Octopus has a delicious earthy and lemon flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. Each exhale leaves a earthy-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has long tapered spade-shaped vivid green nugs with warm amber tones, curly amber hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

For growers, Purple Octopus offers a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them — expect plants flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Purple family — see Purple Hindu Kush and Purple Hindu Kush × Afghani #1 for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
