Hey Everyone. I have heard a lot about purple buds lately. I am trying to decide between ordering The Purps beans or getting some Grape Ape clones from a friend. Anyone tried smoking/growing either? I am curious about them. I was able to find info on the purps, but not too much about Grape Ape. Thanks for any thoughts!

if you order the purps from seed you won't be getting pure purps, you'll be getting a purps hybrid. I'd go with the ape because it's a clone. I'm sure it would make it better to see the buds of the plant that the clone was coming from.

fdd2blk, I know you hate the purple this and that. I think you mentioned it tasted grandma-ish or something to that effect- like it tastes as you would imagine the color purple tasting. I have not tried it, but that is what is really popular in my area. So, I had to ask. I am going to try it today and I shall see for myself what all the hoopla is about.

Thanks for the input everyone. I will go for the Grape Ape.

it is good. here and there. last time i went into the 2 different clubs i frequent that's all they had. 10 different flavors of purple. i just don't get it. why not 1 or 2 then qa bunch of other stuff? nope just pur[le, purple, purple. i know that's what everyone likes but guess what? i'm not everyone. :mrgreen::blsmoke::peace:

It is a fad. It is in all the rap songs and you have to admit, when you get the really purple buds, they look cool. They have awesome bag appeal. But yes, the whole purple thing is WAY over rated. There are so many awesome strains that are many different colors.

I've had buds that were close to the color of hay before. Honest to god it was some of the best weed i've ever brought into my lungs. It really made the delicious, juicy trichomes stand out. Thankfully it tasted like some kind of alien fruit, not hay.

alien fruit! sounds interesting.

I love some purple every now and then, i actually really like that purple/lavender taste, but i honestly prefer blueberry or something really hashy tasting

Most purple strains are not as strong as green. Some are though. I got some good purple urkle that was as strong as anything else I have smoked. Mostly it just looks and sometimes tastes different. But a well cured batch of god bud or purps looks amazing.

The rage is because every rap song talks about purp.

Some Purple strains are pretty mediochre. Some are very tasty and smell great and are fairly strong. Most purple isnt as strong as the best green stuff but still purple is different which can be good from time to time. Any real smoker knows this.:mrgreen::peace:

I agree with FDD. Purple is highly overrated, and its EVERYWHERE. There have been times where I haven't seen anything but purple for months. And it really isn't that impressive.

Now I'll admit, every once in a while you'll get an exceptional batch of purple, and that is some of the best weed I have ever smoked, but it is few and far between.

If you've never tried purp before, then I suggest you go and smoke some before you grow it...I see that your location says northern cali...how can you NOT find purple????
