Purple Haze Strain
Purple Haze is an 85% Sativa dominant hybrid strain that is a potent cross between the popular Purple Thai and Haze strains. The dark buds boast a THC level ranging from 14-19% on average and a myriad of both Sativa and Indica effects. Purple Haze was named after Jimi Hendrix’s classic 1967 song and is one of the most famous strains ever thanks to its popularity in the 1960s. Users describe the Purple Haze high as one with almost immediate high-energy cerebral stimulation accompanied by an intense sense of creative inspiration and blissful contentment. One of the all-time greats that won’t be leaving anytime soon. As with all legendary and historic strains of marijuana, there is great debate over the exact naming and origins of this strain. It is obvious that a strain nearly 50 years old is going to change considerably since what it was once known for, along with changes in the soil, the earth biome, human culture, and perception, not to mention all the cross breeding. Purple Haze can be psychedelic in larger doses so it is to be used with caution. The effects of Purple Haze are wonderfully stimulating without being completely overpowering.

One social group who use Purple Haze extensively are artists and other creative individuals, as it is said to be one of the best strains available for increasing creativity.
