Purple Wreck is the offspring of two very popular strains, Purple Urkle and Trainwreck, and was created by Amsterdam's DNA genetics. The cross sped up the growth time of the usually slow Urkle, and Purple Wreck plants can be expected to flower quickly in 8-9 weeks.
This sweet-smelling indica-dominant hybrid has a sativa/indica ratio of 40:60, a combination handed down from its famed parents, Purple Urkle and Trainwreck. That makes for a calming and sleepy but euphoric body high complemented by mental focus and a boost of happiness. Use Purple Wreck as treatment for anxiety, low mood, migraine headaches, chronic pain, insomnia, and stress. It produces powerful hunger, so it's also a good choice for patients who suffer from eating or wasting disorders. CBD levels are apparently very low in Purple Wreck, meaning the strain shouldn't be used as relief for seizures or other maladies that require that substance. THC values, on the other hand, are quite high, over 18% in some samples. That puts this strain near the top shelf of potent marijuana strains, though not quite on it. The bud is lime green with amber hairs, while Purple Wreck has a sweet, earthy flavor of grapefruit and a sweet, grassy smell with hints of loam. Patients can expect some of the usual cannabis side effects: dry mouth, red eyes, paranoia, dizziness, and anxiety. This strain is easiest to find in the Pacific Northwest, Arizona, California, and Colorado.
