Featured MMJ Strain: Purple Wreck
Purple wreck, a sweet, potent Indica strain, is an extremely fruity cross between Train Wreck and Purple Urkle. Purple Wreck is perfect for night time medication, with a heavy euphoric body high known to produce such intense relaxation that medicating with the strain often leaves patients “couch locked,” a positive effect for patients suffering from insomnia and pain. Purple Wreck is most known to leave patients feeling uplifted, euphoric, sedated, creative, and happy. Medicinally, the strain is reported to be highly analgesic, relieving pain in medical marijuana patients. The strain also does away with stress, anxiety, and insomnia.
Grown by DNA Seeds in Amsterdam, Purple Wreck’s sweet flavors are often compared to grape or berry. The other flavors, undertones of sweetness and grassiness, are positive compliments to the berry flavor, and often times many patients will say that this is the sweetest strain they’ve ever medicated with. The high often lasts incredibly long, up to four hours, making the strain a great “night cap” for patients who need sedation before attempting to sleep.
Purple Wreck is favored by many growers because of its high THC content, short grow time, and aesthetically pleasing purple flowers. The plant has a flowering period of 8-9 weeks, with a large yield and dense nugs. The plants grow short, a trait true to the Indica genetics of the strain, also making it easier to grow inside. The combination of a high yield, aesthetically pleasing flowers, high cannabinoid content, and a short height make this plant a favorite among many growers.
Included below are three reviews of Purple Wreck which MMJ patients posted on Leafly, a marijuana strain network for medical marijuana patients.
“Purple Wreck is one of my all-time favorite hybrids. It’s a cross between Purple Urkle X Trainwreck, a little bit will keep you going but a lot will incapacitate you. This is a very strong strain that can be excellent for day or night use. With almost instant effects behind the eyes and in the temples, Purple Wreck works beautifully for relieving headaches as well as sinus and ocular pressure, but it is not for the faint-of-heart. The Purple Urkle heritage provides a heavy-narcotic like sedation, which is crossed with Trainwreck – an ‘uppity’ daytime – sativa strain. These two strains mixed together make the perfect combination for an awesome hybrid.” -THCWA
“The phenotype that I purchsed had no purple tinge in it but this is by far the best product I have smoked. Has a sweet smell with an underlying odor of diesel. The PW relieved all my anxiety and lifted my spirits up and made me feel very well and happy. This strain also gave me lots of energy and my creative juices were unleashed. This medicine is, in my opinion, among the best.” -Anonymous
“I really liked this strain. It’s had all the qualities that I like and require for sacred Medicines. Amazingly frosted neon green with lavender colors everywhere. Super dense buds that are almost too dense if there was such a thing. Tastes like it smells. My wife who doesn’t smoke loves it, gentle enough with one hit to uplift and provide head change while she still feels normal.” -Andru
