Purple Lightning is an F-1 hybrid that we first created back in 1995 by crossing our Northern Lights #5 male with a female Purple Indica that had been cultivated in B.C for many years prior to that. Very similar to our N.L.#5 in structure but a bit quicker to finish and much stronger smelling. If you do not mind stronger smelling plants in your growroom and want short, high yielding plants that develop beautiful purple accents, then this one is a good choice.
Strain FAQ
Do all purple strain plants turn purple?
Purple tints vary per strain due to genetic diversity. Some plants have purple phenotypes, while others are green. Selective breeding over generations can stabilise this feature, but each plant's colours are said to be unpredictable.
How have Indica strains evolved?
Indica varieties have survived the harsh, dry climates of Afghanistan, India, and Morocco. This resistance makes them hardy plants that can thrive in poor settings and is said to make them uniquely suitable for indoor cultivation where space and conditions can be managed.
Do short-flowering strains save energy?
Absolutely. Since these plants are known to harvest faster, they need less energy for lighting, ventilation, and other equipment. These strains save indoor legal producers a lot of energy, making them more sustainable and affordable.
