What is Purple genetics?
Purple genetics encompasses cannabis strains that develop purple, lilac, or blue hues during flowering, especially when nighttime temperatures drop. This visual appeal is due to a higher presence of anthocyanins, natural pigments that, in addition to beautifying the plant, can intensify its aromatic profile.
Although the purple trait is found in ancestral genetics, such as Purple Thai or Granddaddy Purple, today there are multiple modern hybrids with this characteristic, maintaining or even improving their potency, flavor, and performance.
