So to start off, what strain is Purple Punch? It was originally bred by Supernova Gardens in Hawaii, the objective was to blend the sweet, fruity aspect of Granddaddy Purple with the potent Larry OG. The result was a strain offering both incredible flavor and powerful effects.
Some people call Purple Punch Cali (as in Californian weed) because the strain gained significant attention when a cutting made its way to California. Symbiotic Genetics, a breeding collective, received the original Purple Punch clone in 2013. Recognizing its potential, they worked to stabilize and perfect the strain genetics. After that Purple Punch quickly became a staple in the cannabis community for its deep and shiny purple colors, frosty trichomes, and strong grape candy aroma. It went on to win awards at events like the Dutch Flowers Cup and the High Times Medical Cannabis Cup, a real champion!
Its popularity led to the creation of numerous hybrids and variants—such as Purple Punch 2.0, Purple Cookie Punch, platinum Purple Punch, and the Purple Punch Cake strains! It was even crossed with the Gelato genetic to obtain Gelato Purple Punch! Today, the Purple Punch strain is a favorite in the global cannabis community, found in dispensaries and coffee shops from California to Amsterdam.
The Purple Punch strain is the result of a cross between the strains Granddaddy Purple and Larry OG, two well-known weed varieties:
Granddaddy Purple is an indica-dominant strain (80% indica, 20% sativa) that's been used in many breeding processes since the early 2000s. It has a THC level ranging from 17% to 23%, with minimal CBD. Flavor-wise, it has sweet grape and berry notes that wake up your taste buds. This strain is renowned for its deep purple buds coated in frosty trichomes which Purple Punch inherited as well!
On the other side of the genetic origin, we have Larry OG, also known as Lemon Larry. This strain is a balanced hybrid leaning slightly towards indica-dominance (60% indica, 40% sativa). With a THC content between 20% and 24% and low CBD levels, Larry OG doesn't mess around. It offers a refreshing citrus flavor profile, featuring zesty lemon notes complemented by earthy undertones and a hint of pine.
When it comes to potency, the Purple Punch weed strain doesn't play around. With an average THC level between 20% and 25%, this strain packs a punch that'll send you K.O like an uppercut straight to your face. The CBD content is minimal (less than 1%), so if you're hunting for medicinal strains rich in CBD, Sirius online Seedshop has a large selection of premium medicinal CBD cannabis seeds.
Purple Punch is a high Indica-dominant hybrid, with 90% indica and 10% sativa genetics. That means you can expect a deeply relaxing body high that's perfect for chilling after a long day of working.
The Purple Punch strain doesn’t just hit on the effect side, but its smell, taste and look are also impressive and unique, surprising even seasoned cannabis experts!
The Purple Punch terpenes create an aroma that's like entering a candy shop that only sells blueberry and grape candies. With hints of vanilla and a touch of tartness, it is especially suited for a digespliff, aka after-dinner smoke, or when you're craving something sweet without the guilt filling up with sugar.
The rich terpene profile of purple punch is responsible for its flavor and aroma. Key terpenes of this strain include:
Visually, Purple Punch is a stunner. The buds boast vibrant purple hues, dense green foliage, and a generous dusting of frosty trichomes that sparkle under your cannabis grow light. The bright orange pistils weaving through the buds add another layer of color that contrasts with the purple color of the leaves.
The Purple Punch strain effects are relatively balanced in comparison to its genetic profile, meaning you won't feel over sedated. Mentally, you'll feel a wave of euphoria washing over you, lifting your spirits higher than a kite and will keep you awake, while physically, expect a deep sense of relaxation that'll make your couch feel like a cloud.

The weed strain Purple Punch really thrives indoors with proper care. It prefers a controlled environment where you can manage light, temperature, and humidity. Its bushy nature means it might need some pruning to let the light reach all parts of the plant. To get the desired purple color, you will have to lower the temperature of your grow tent at around week 8 to about 15 - 18°c.
For outdoor cultivation, Purple Punch prefers a sunny, Mediterranean climate. It's fairly resistant to pests, but can be sensitive to not-so-ideal weather so we recommend you make sure to have a nice spot and good weather. This strain flourishes in climates where the nights are cooler (but not below 15°c), because this is when the deep purple colors are created! If you want your outdoor grow to be 100% biological, you should use biological cannabis fertilizer.
The Purple Punch strain flowering time is short between 7 to 9 weeks and it can yield:
