You getting ripping on the "purple haze". To my knowledge that strain has completely died out.

[wipemedown69]

not true it is an all female no male plant the bud is agreen hat looks grey almost and is covered in hairs that are so dark they look black but are actually purple i dont think a strain like haze or sumthing that good could just die out

[not_the_kitty]

I thought purple haze was really a really good kind of acid in the 60's

It was, it was also a very famous strain of herb that died out.

Correct.


These days, dealers are selling anything with the purple phenotype as "purple haze." The legendary purple haze has not been found for a long time. Doubt it even exists. Just because it's purple doesn't mean it's purple haze.

that was one type mentioned by jimi hendrix but is more famously a strain of marijuana mentioned by plenty of rappers camron made an album entitled purple haze it originated in harlem new york and in places like harlem and new jersey its $700 an ounce

I dont think thats right bro. I think that the legendary purple haze strain, like many great strains, came from either the middle east or holland/amstperdam.

And your getting ripped and lied to man. Noones seen the actual honest to god purple haze strain from back in the day in YEARS.

And I would never pay 700 an ounce, unless that shit made new buds everytime i used some.

"purple" strains generally are less potent than strains that don't get too purple. Purple doesn't mean the bud is good. It means the strain is genetically predisposed to turn purple. Most "purps" you find are only purple because the temp was dropped during the budding phase of growth. "authentic purple haze" doesn't exist anymore, but you can find "haze" that was flowered during a temp-drop, turning the buds purple....Same with the "purple kush"

Also, names mean absolutely nothing unless you know a lot about the genetics of a plant (example: AK-47 has none of the same genetics as AK-48.....a better example: genetically pure "Durban Poison" compared to the version of "Durban Poison" sold by gypsy nirvana, which is actually "Durban Poison X Skunk #1"

Bottom line, don't trust strain names unless you're growing because then you can buy seeds from a reputable seedbank and research the genetics as extensively as you please.

To answer your question, I've paid $100 for an ounce of purple buds (mids), but I've also paid $280 (well-grown, unbricked sinsemilla).

nahwashington heights in harlem is called home of the piff and piff means purple haze it is real and still around but i no shit thats $1600 an ounce it comes from colombia its called wow wee the bud it purple gray and orange with green hairs the smallest little tiniest bud u can bearly see will have u on for 12 hours

[Unknownfigure]

A rapper making an album about something does not make it true, they are probably getting ripped off as well. You can get "Purple Haze" from alot of places, and it is sold in almost all coffeeshops in Amsterdam, but it's not the legendary. It doesn't exist anymore.

i no how the cold air and the purp and all that but the kush is commin from mexico but is not dirt just cheap and ive seen the haze bein grown cuz its in my friends basement there both covered in crystals an potent as hell

[Unknownfigure]

Doesn't mean it's the original purple haze. It can be a mutant. And there are other strains with the purple phenotype, some offspring express the trait more severely than others.

Cause its good don't make it the old school famous Purple Haze man. Face it, you tried to either bullshit us and failed or you got bullshitted.

[wipemedown69]

how would u no weather its original purp or not have u ever seen it the point of it is its purp

[Unknownfigure]

Because there isn't a reliable source to get a living plant from of this ORIGINAL purple haze. And actually, your original point was that it's supposed to be "authentic purple haze."


It's a Cannabis plant that's purple. Really all there is to it. (lulz)


Edit: And I usually don't buy purple because it's almost always low grade. I stick to my White strains, and if I do want purps, I get some Grandaddy Purple for about $170 an ounce because I'm real close friends with some people up in Cali. To compensate them, I'll give them some seeds of whatever they want a cross of so they don't lose out on much. Granted, those seeds won't be stable, that first generation would probably be pretty damn potent, and clones can be taken from that. And, they'd have to choose from what I can get now. But meh, I haven't gotten purps in a little over a year.

[ganjzilla]

there is a company that makes seeds called purple haze though cuz ive seen the seeds for sale on planetskunk.com

[DaPolarBear]

how would u no weather its original purp or not have u ever seen it the point of it is its purp

You would know if it was the original purple haze by the genetics and shit of it. Not the fucking color.

[wipemedown69]

ok then if u can buy purple haze seeds off line then to the best of his nowledge it is authentic

[Unknownfigure]

For (hopefully) the last time, people are marketing Purple buds as Purple Haze BECAUSE OF IT'S COLOR. The plants are not genetically related to the ORIGINAL.

[wipemedown69]

but this is my good friend growin down in his basement and my guess is if hes buyin purple haze seeds of the internet then to the best of his knoweledge it is purple haze

Its called purple haze to take up on the legend of the purple haze strain from way back when. That actual strain is dead now, and the "purple haze" you see now is probably about as related to the real purple haze as brickweed (except in color)

[Unknownfigure]

Don't get me wrong, under the right conditions, the "Purple Haze" most seedbanks sell can be grown to be VERY potent. But this is true with almost every strain. Perhaps to the best of HIS knowledge, it is, but it is not the authentic. It is simply named the same. I don't really care about the strain as long as it gets me where I want to go, I just stick with the White family because they have NEVER failed me.

[wipemedown69]

ok so how do we no that it is dead have any of u ever seen the original purp and even if it is dead the strain my friend is sellin is teqnically legit purp

[Unknownfigure]

Ugghhh.... I wish Stinkyattic were here, as she is more knowledgable than me and everyone else here.



"Legit purp" simply means the bud is purple. There are many strains that possess this trait, naturally. A better question is, have YOU seen the original Purple Haze before it died out in the late 70's?

[wipemedown69]

alright my guy growin the purp just started drowin white widow a couple months ago and it should be ready to be sold by like december its gonna be probly 25 a gram and 700 an ounce wut r u payin

[wipemedown69]

nah i wasnt even alive in the 70's but its wuteva

[Unknownfigure]

I don't pay anything. I grow my own shit, and I don't sell my shit, because something you put such love and attention to should not be sold. In my eyes, the bud that I grow is a part of me, and I would never sell myself.

Even if my grow op gets busted or I have to take it down, I would still have a steady supply of free bud because I have setup, funded, and guided numerous grows in my area, therefor I know a few people that would not hesitate to drop me a quarter-pound here and there. I don't pay for my bud anymore, I'm not a kid, and I refuse to fund the drug trade.

How the fuck does 25 a fucking G and 700 an ounce work out? For all essenitionaly purposes a Ounce is 28 grams, and 25 x 28 is 700, but you don't sell it like that. The actual price per gram decreases the more you buy. I would never want your buddy as a dealer, that guy is a fuckin ripoff man.

Heh, especially considering that if he grows it, that after he gets rid of electricity expenses and such, it is 100% profit. That's why I don't play around in the streets anymore.

Shit, if you know the right people I can take an hour drive and get an ounce of pretty much anything (strains included, not just "mids" or "uppers" eetc) for 180 - 250. You buddy is a twat ass conartist dude.

Usually doesn't matter to me, because if I smoke someone out, they don't ask what strain it is. If I get smoked out, I don't ask, either. It's just a favor, back and forth...


But meh. Money comes and goes anyway. Paying hundreds and hundreds of dollars for an ounce seems rediculous to me, because you can easily achieve that from just one plant if you grow it yourself. But hey, not everyone can grow.

[ThinkLong]

Eh, who cares... let him believe what he wants... it's his money

[skiddy]

purple haze is gone =( how did it die out ?

[Reefer Rogue]

Buy some Purple Erkel, that's some real piff right there. Stop bashing the guys dealer, it's only idiots that would pay that price for an ounce, perhaps a g if i was desperate and it was super dank...
