Still have seeds from Killingfields x Mama Thai.There was a hermie issue with Killingfields in the past.

Keep on growing :)

yeah,killing fields can be fantastic. didn't know about the potential he-she pblms.

cbg has the new punto rojo that throws some nice purps.

ace purple haze has some nice purps.

ace violeta is a candidate. hopefully the purple malawi pheno from ace's malawi bumps up pck's potency.

real seed co. sinai has some nice easily cold induced purple phenos. cannabasio has posted his.

reeferman recently got back from africa and stated he sw some nice purple mozambiques. i haven't seen any of seeds of africa mozambique indicate purple yet.

panama has an occasional purple pheno. kaiki (cbg) says it rare in the cbg panama line.

Window's beautiful PCK reddish purple bunch-0-buds reminds me of a cut I grew in my first summer called "Purple Ice." Same colour scheme. But, low on the potency - tasted great - like caramel.

Of course, I have been checking out the PCK, hard to miss. People love it.

My preference is to get that CANDY taste like Ya get with Urkle or GDP. And a fast finish under 62 days 12/12.


Gracias, Muchachos..!!

PCK from CBG/Ace is my favourite purple plant, its not too strong but has a very nice stone and can still put people to sleep.
Great colour and very nice taste and aroma...smells of wild blackberries and taste is deep musky hash, I love her.:biggrin:

Colour is more vibrant if grown outside with cold nightsView Image
As for Peyote purple, I found this in a 5 pack, lol and she is in no way weak, people are telling me she is one of the best smokes for a long time and I agree, just wow.
Dense buds, stinky and taste is deep, deep hash and potency is strong imho.
Best at 9 to 10 weeks.

What you have there is more than likely the ancestors of all purple cultivars out there. PCK is old world and I dont know about your stock but mine has phenos that will put your lights out all the way down to high CBD phenos that wont get you high at all.

A lot of fancy names and hybrids out there but my bet is they owe their lineage to this strain.

PCK will have phenos that mature that early, hell they come from an elevation of 10k to 12k feet ASL. Keep in mind they have been worked over the years but most of the stock available is from wild pollinated seed stock an as such you will get phenos all over the place, which is my favorite kind to breed.

Did quick search on the bay. Found that grindhouse has a urkle x dmt. Verdent green has bluedigiberry f2 and purple kush x bubba kush.

Most plants will turn purple if you lower the temperature in the flowering room enough. It's the anthocyanin, plant anti-freeze, that often makes plants turn purple. Though other strains do have a genetic disposition for it.

I've had super skunk, pre-98 bubba kush, F-13 and other DJ Short strains turn purple by flower when temps where in the mid-70's. I used to live in Minnesota and grew in my basement, during the winter the flower room would often be in the lower 70's and most plants turned purple.

I was on a quest for purple pot for about 7 years. I'm over it. I don't want to bring you down, but I've decided the quest for purple pot is a waste of time and it's better to choose plants based on flavor and potency. However, I wish you luck in your quest.

Mexcurandero, that purple manali looks nice, is that from RSC stock?
Stasis, I've never grown it but was looking at Seedsmans Purple bud, the description says its pretty much a purple skunk, done in 9 weeks and around 20% THC....maybe to good to be true but as its pretty cheap I may try it myself one day.
When you say GDP tastes like candy, is it like the sweet, perfumed hash taste like some indica's from the 90s used to have? ( Black domina, Hash plant )
I have not had that taste for years and miss it. Now if I could find a purple sativa that tasted like that I would be in heaven.:)

Id agree that to choose a plant for its paintjob will probably leave U wanting for other characteristics. I smoked some PCK, and what I smoked was not potent. However Ive smoked purple OG, Bubba, urkle, thai, hazemans purple rhino x g13... (and more) all potent... its in the selection.... a lot of Blackberry crosses are heavy and strong as well as colorfull.People repeatedly say purple isnt potent, and I have had the experience that carefull selection CAN produce your desired traits. Even potent high yielding dank smelling herb with great bag appeal and a fast finish. just dont settle for lesser strains. Oh yeah I just remembered... hazeman has an Elephant stomper which is Purple elephant ( P.U. X hasplant made by jojorizo) x grapestomper .... plenty of grape drink flavor with good yield. I think that one is not to purple dominant, however conditionally responsive to coloring from what Ive read. he also has a Purple rhino/indiana bubblegum x P.U./ loompas underdog,(which has urks in it) x aloha white widow/the white cut. looks like a pile of good genes to me. :tiphat:

Truth iz aint no such thing as berners cut.. or original cut.... they change cuts more then they change clothes..i was getting cookie flowers from a homie in that circle before there was a gsc thread..very few ppl on this site had cookies before me... i was there at my homies house when the "forum" cut got brought out originally . seen ogkb prior n was getting buds way before that.... to be honest... out of all the cuts animal n forum have made the best crosses... ogkb is the slowest and worst producing plants ever... can get her to yield good with ridiculous numbers n tends to pass that trait on along with great taste in crosses, thinmint same shit ..thing is cookiewreck was made u can trace it back was probably the first cross out before everyone released their legit cookie crosses.. forum cut was used n the tw male beefed her up huge but very surprisingly didnt fuck up the cookie flavor with that tw yuk... for the record i was totally against the cookiewreck idea n had to eat my words after the fact,..
Check out triple nova also... triangle og clone x blackberry tw bx which is blackberry clone(blackberry clonextw) get everything from sweet fuel to pure og pine fuel funk n everything in between...

hahaa Im outta likes for the day, stoney, otherwise U woulda got 2. Ive shyed away from the cookiewreck myself cuase I cant imagine it tasting good with a sweet strain... I also have avoided the urkle cross with TW 4 the same reason. Ive looked at cannaventures triple nova as well.... I LOVE blackberry... I have a couple to go through, but its a solid yielder, tasy and dark.... mmmmm

Lyfespan, that Black Dom looks very nice.
In terms of potency you can't compare Pck to 'put you on you're ass ' hybrids, it would seem mild to people who do smoke and enjoy strong, narcotic cannabis.
Like Ranger pointed out, Pck is a pure indica and yes pheno's are all over the place so you have to pick the best of what you get in a pack, get the right one and she is in a class of her own.
Smoking pot is subjective, its all about what different people like in there smoke.
If you've ever smoked fine, Pakistani hash and liked it you will love a good Pck.

Actually it's not pure Indica and from what I'm learning you won't find pure anything really, other than perhaps Ruderallis and even that I'm certain has some genetic makeup of Indica and Sativa origins.

Pakistan and Afghanistan (Mideast area) have been favored by science as a possible birth place of cannabis and that includes all cannabis.

From what I'm learning you will find Indica and Sativa phenos from several cultivars of this origin. I never knew that until recently to tell you the truth and it makes sense when you've grown as much Mazar and Chitral Kush as I have. I have seen NL to WL phenos across the board.

Some scientists and in fact all scientists will tell you that you cannot, on a DNA level, discern the difference between the two. My personal theory is they are the same plant and only differing in epigenetic traits associated with environmental changes, due at least in part to climatic differences.

In other words they are currently under an evolutionary split that could, if unregulated by man for tens of thousands of years, develop them into two different cultivars.

It makes sense from a plant physiology point of view that Narrow leaf phenos have adapted to the equatorial climate, bright sun and heat for the simple reason that less leaf surface area aids in deterring too much light adsorption.

Wide leaf phenos would benefit from more leaf surface area due to a less intense sun and less Photons to adsorb.

It's a tough call and a lot needs to be studied as yet but suffice it to say PCK and Mazar are quality genetics to have in the cupboard.
