it is definately not weak
it is not the most potent strain in the world, but i dont get how you can still say throughout the entire thread that it sucks or has bad genetics.
what you may have heard is wrong about purple haze and it being weak.
it is not as strong in my opinion as sour diesel or chemdawg but it is definately a good high.
until you grow it or have it consistently for a while dont post hearsay about something and then try your hardest to back it up when you actually dont know.
You need to stop trying. I dont want another arguement, but i will if i must.Quote:

Like i said, it IS common knowledge between the people who actually know what their talking about.
You might be smoking some very nice bud with purple genetics, but that's just the colour of plant material. It does not mean it's purple haze, and the way you described it im 99% sure it's not purple haze. It may be a "New improved" purple haze, but not the original.
purple haze is amazin an no thats not it in the pics
you are not entirely correct with that statementQuote:

Fact: When today's youth use marijuana, they are using the same drug used by youth in the 1960s and 1970s. A small number of low-THC sample sized by the Drug Enforcement Administration are used to calculate a dramatic increase in potency. However, these samples were not representative of the marijuana generally available to users during this era. Potency data from the early 1980s to the present are more reliable, and they show no increase in the average THC content of marijuana. Even if marijuana potency were to increase, it would not necessarily make the drug more dangerous. Marijuana that varies quite substantially in potency produces similar psychoactive effects.
i have about 5 different strains with very strong purple genetics lip. i am not a fucking tool so dont play me for one. i at least am using solid experience with the strain you just go by something you assume or heard. i use facts you dont. im not trying to argue but i have it and i have always had it and where i get it has always had it for years.
my old ass uncles can verify this is all true as they themselves were growing at the time. (60's)
i dont understand people like you, yes that is purple haze i have always gotten it the same way from a very well known grower.Quote:

Incidentally, it is not considered to be the best of the purps. That distinction goes to Purple Erkle or Granddaddy Purple, both of which are outrageously potent weed.
It's pretty much understood, however, that this new "purple haze" is not the original purple haze that was first available way back when. My personal feeling is that it's kind of a punk ass thing to name a new strain after an older strain that no longer exists, even if it is a big improvement. But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist because it does. Someone pointed out that you can name your kid Jesus but that doesn't mean he's the messiah. True, but it doesn't mean a kid named Jesus doesn't exist. Know what I mean?
Despite of all this, I would agree that 90% of what is sold on the street as "Purple Haze" is not either the old or the new Purple Haze. It's just some random purple weed.
fOR THE LAST TIME THIS THREAD WAS A JOKE!!!!!!!...All I did was photoshop some bagseed sativa I grew out. I cannot believe a few assclowns actually thought I meant that it was purple haze. It is so easy to make bud turnout purple. just add certain nutes if your strain does not carry purple traits.
Granddaddy. . . mmmmmmmmmmm

Purple Haze wasnt a particually strong strain. Your "uncles" who grew it will tell you.Quote:

1) what proof is there that it isn't still around, and what proof is there that it is?

this all sound like hear-say/ word of mouth. . . . and dammit, who cares either way. Unless your growing it there is no reason you should say it is around.
