Purple Haze is a weed strain just like Northern Lights and Blueberry. There would be no point putting acid of bud as it would get destroyed through the heat of burning it. To the OP that bud looks really nice if I were you i'd keep that dealer friend of yours on friendly terms.Quote:

Purple haze is pretty much extinct in its pure form. There are probably very few select growers with the original strain. You most likely do not have the original purple haze. That being said, it's possible that you have a cross with Purple Haze or some other purple strain. Also, weed can have a slightly purplish color if exposed to undesirable temperatures/lack of certain nutrients.
im sorry but yall don't know shit....
purple haze is just haze that's grown in northern cali.... the climate causes the buds to go purple late in the season...
LOL, ever hear the saying " People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones".Quote:

-Purple Haze is not a myth. It is an actual strain that does/did exist.
-Purple Haze was a type of acid going around in the late '60's. Most likley Jimi was singing about this. Hendrix did deny, however, that it was a reference to drugs at all. "Hendrix in interviews said that the song comes from a dream Hendrix had, where he was walking under the ocean, surrounded by a Purple Haze. A rumour credits the song to a Native American myth told to Jimi by his Cherokee grandmother. Some say the phrase "purple haze" came from a science fiction novel Hendrix was reading at the time, written by Philip Jose Farmer. Hendrix also explained at one point, that the song is just about love and not about drugs. He said that the line "what ever it is, that girl put a spell on me" is the key to the meaning of lyrics."
- Purple Haze is not a type of Haze at all. It was just named that after the Hendix song. It certainly isn't Haze that's gone purple.
- Purple Haze apparently wasn't that great a strain at all. This explains why it is no longer grown in large quantities
-Some strains, usually types of indicas, are naturally purple. Others will turn purple when exposed to cold temps.
- A few of the purple strains are extremely potent indicas. Probably in the top 10-20 of all strains in terms of potency. Many purple strains, however, aren't potent at all. In other words the color isn't an indication of quality.
-You can buy Purple Haze seeds if you look hard enough. Whether or not these are the original Purple Haze strain is up for debate.
-Purple Haze is not just Haze grown in Northern California. I live in Northern California and have smoked a lot of Haze grown here. None of it was purple.
-99.5% of whatever is sold on the streets as "Purple Haze" is either some other Purple strain or a strain that has been exposed to cold temps and gone purple. DON"T PAY HIGH PRICES FOR IT. It's like the guy with a armful of "genuine Rolex's".
So, that's what I was able to piece together from relaible sources (such as the Cannabible, seed companies, a grower I know, a supplier of medical marijuana I know, Wikipedia, etc). Believe it or not, I'm not saying it's 100% correct, but I think its a bit more reliable than the word of a 15yo gangsta wanna-be.
all i can say is any weed with those kinda resin crystals is some serious stuff!Quote:

that's the bottom line really
To quote another board:
The "original" Purple Haze no longer exists; however, there are knock-offs and hybrids of the plant that have survived. Your dealer friend does not have Purple Haze, he most likely has bud that has some purple on it, which means nothing about the quality of the plant. In fact, it's a sign of a nitrogen (or phosphorus) deficiency in most cases.
The" Purple Haze no longer exists, however, some of its traits have been passed down through hybrids.....
