Characteristics: This particular cutting of Purple Urkle ,we have been growing for about three years. Unlike any of it's siblings; the Purps, Purple Flattop, and the triplets, Urkle, Murkle, and Durkle; which are full indica's and definitely show such characteristics, our cutting was a sativa cross hybrid. She grows like a super sativa. As far as growth characteristics she grew identical to Pineapple Express, except she only approves of moderate feedings. We have about 3 years experience with the Purps phenos prior to this cutting. During veg and the first few weeks of flower, canopy management is a must, because she stretches up to, and often beyond, week 4 flower. This same scenario happens in our indoor as well. However, she has the same dank grape smell of her kin, even though it doesn't seem to be as overwhelming (shame). In our circle of friends, the Purps and kin were never known as high yielding, especially when compared to Afghani Goo; but this cutting has consistently yielded more than previous cuttings. We also feel this is at sacrifice to quality of the medicine, again when compared to her kin. The taste is the infamous grape soda, nice and smooth. When she is smoked, she leaves you with a wonderful head change, without affecting your ability to function). In medible form she will leave you curled up on the floor in fetal position ( 4 cookies )... the cookies were so good, I (Spencer) forgot about titration. She makes some dank bubble, but sieved... the aroma, arouses any nose within reach!
