Purple Bud

 

If you’re looking for the kind of strain that combines premium genetics from all over the world, you won’t be let down by Purple Bud. Diversity is the name of the game with this girl, combining genetics from California, Holland and Afghanistan’s Hindu Kush region. The result is a very generous-yielding Afghani-Sativa cannabis strain that produces some seriously pretty plants.

 

Purple Bud strain grows from pretty easy to grow seeds and represents a great choice for beginners. It’s also perfectly suited to outdoor growing if you happen to live somewhere with at least a Mediterranean-ish climate.

 

As an Indica-dominant strain, the high is predominantly body-centred, though far from overpowering. Trace her origins even further back and there’s a welcome dose of Jamaican ancestry in there, which adds an uplifting and energising back-note to the high for a good sense of balance. Though her purple ancestry isn’t particularly strong, the purple colours the plants develop as they mature can be seen primarily on the buds themselves. The leaves often remain green, contrasting gorgeously with the purple flowers.

There’s a distinct fragrance of sandalwood and pine to the flowers of Purple Bud, which translates to a smooth, musky smoke with plenty of sweet berry flavours. Flowering times of just seven weeks or so promise healthy pay-outs in no time at all, from a plant with the durability to largely take care of itself. Both hydro and soil growing setups will get the job done nicely, producing plants of a medium height that tend to be extremely sturdy and robust.

 

Purple Bud is such a pretty strain that it’s ideal for anyone looking to grow just a single specimen plant. But at the same time, it produces gorgeous weed that’s more than worth growing in bulk. Just be sure to protect it from any sudden cold snaps outdoors, if you choose to let nature take care of things for you.

 

 

Lamb’s Bread

 


Most cannabis strains have their own unique claims to fame, but Lamb’s Bread is said to have a notch in its belt that goes above and beyond most. It’s said that Lamb's Bread as well as Stardawg feminized was none other than the favourite cannabis strain of Bob Marley himself, which in its own right earned it guaranteed God-like status among millions of stoners worldwide.

 

Try out Lamb's Bread for yourself and you’ll immediately understand why it’s something of a musician’s favourite. The high is one that begins with an immediate uplift and energy boost, coupled with glorious euphoria and a sense of heightened creativity.

 

As a strain with predominantly Sativa genetics, the high hit the brain far harder than the body. There’s a sense of relaxed contentment, but on the whole, there’s almost no noticeable effect on the body when smoking Lamb's Bread. It’s all about focus, concentration and that real sense that can (and just might) accomplish anything.

 

It’s also a winner for its flavour profile, which is heavy in spicy-pine and citrus notes with a definite skunk undertone. In medical cannabis circles, Lamb's Bread has become a key player in the treatment of ADHD, depression and anxiety, not to mention poor appetite, glaucoma and migraines.

 

If you choose to grow Lamb's Bread and Purple Lamb at home, you’ll probably find it one of the easiest strains out there to get the job done. Despite its legendary status, it’s a breeze to cultivate indoors or out, even if you don’t have any prior experience. Flowering times of around nine weeks mean you won’t be waiting too long for the payoff, which can be as generous as 400g for every square metre when provided with optimum conditions. THC content hovers around the 18%, which means that while Lamb's Bread packs a punch, it isn’t going to blow you into the middle of next week.
