Although only small to medium in size, Blurple’s flowers stun consumers with their vivid array of colors. The densely-packed leaves are a dark green, nearly verging on brown. Hairy orange pistils wind their way through the solid, spade-shaped buds. Many phenotypes of the strain also boast streaks of dark blue and purple in their leaves, the result of pigments called anthocyanins being stimulated by cold temperatures during the growing process. Dewy, translucent trichomes finish off these impressive nugs, coating leaf surfaces and giving this strain a very sticky texture.
When properly cured, Blurple emits a distinctly herbal aromatic profile, with notes of musk and fresh-cut grass. A sweet berry aroma and a touch of grape prevent this odor from seeming too dank or earthy. Meanwhile, grinding up or breaking apart the dense flowers yields a floral smell. When combusted, Blurple gives off a smoke that is smooth but nevertheless thick and lung-expanding. This smoke tastes peppery and has a slight berry tang that lingers on the exhale. Notably, any subtle grape flavors associated with this strain are entirely unrelated to its purple coloring; while a strain’s hues are determined by pigmentations, its aroma is dictated by different chemical compounds called terpenes.
Blurple’s high is something of a creeper and may take several minutes after users have finished toking before revealing the full extent of its effects. Users will detect mounting alteration of the senses, culminating in a full-on fascination with otherwise mundane external stimuli. Sights and sounds may more dynamic, making this strain a good accompaniment to trippy movies or music. As the high wears on, a sense of physical relaxation creeps in, relieving tension and allowing deep breathing to happen more freely and easily. While not necessarily couch-locked, users may be less inclined to pursue overly physical activities. Blurple eventually averages out into a mellow mindset that can lend itself to some casual socializing and free-flowing conversation. Smokers stride a balance between mental stimulation and contented relaxation. This strain is best enjoyed during the daytime or early evening when users can take full advantage of its early focus and productivity.
