here is some good old Purple Deep Chunk Indoors, solid purple nugg, next to a green Skunk#1 89.
and some other DC pics before harvest, DC is a natural purple and doesnt require cold temp or anything to make it turn.. but it doesnt show purple from the start, like other pure purple strains, about after week 4-5 when the buds start to ripen does it show color and then becomes covered in it by harvest time.

I love the flavor of DC so much, It is one of the best tasting purple smokes I enjoy. Most purples don't taste all that great, so for that alone she is a keeper in my eyes. that and we all know how good of a breeder parent she is. I will be crossing the DC to the clones of that SKUNK#1 89 bud you see there, should make for some interesting new colors.

omg i hate u!!! lol. thats some crazy weed. i hope u have a clone of that.Found this nice lady in my pack of nirvana PPP. It was damn good smoke, so I cloned her, and been running her for a while now. She's genetically purple through, and through. No matter the temps, she's purple. Purple is the 95 degree sumer heat. The buds start out almost pink-light purple, and get darker, and darker throughout flowering.
She has really nice growth characteristics, and vigor, the color is awesome. She falls short in the flavor catergory for me anyway as I preffer sweeter, fruity strains, and she's mostly pungent-herbal-spicy. The high is where she shines though. seems to have a high ceiling, and the more you smoke the greater the effects.. first few times I smoked it I over did it, and was caught by surprise by the effects. I get a bit of an overwhelmed racy feeling in both my mind, and body when I smoke to much, but half a joint does me just right.. Very introspective high, and really thought provoking.
Immature bud picked to show the crazy pink-purple calyx
different plant so color changed a bit do to nutrient change
dried and cured
I think we are getting the semantics confused here. When growers on the West coast refer to "Purple" strains they are referring to the Grape Apes, Purple Kushes, GDPs, and Urkles. All of which go dark shades of purple but are also accompanied by a intense grapey fruity flavor that is noticable from a distance. Purps, grapes, PK, yurps,etc all are terms used for this family of plants. The purple plants being displayed here(more European in origin) are more varied in taste and smell. Same colors, different highs and smells. No better. No worse. Just diff.
