Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Hindu Kush and Purple Afghani stand behind Purple Queen, and the pink-and-purple colouring she is named for starts at the calyxes before working through the leaves - though not every phenotype bothers to oblige. Pine, citrus and berry sit on the nose, with a relaxed, euphoric, medicinal high beneath. Ready within two months, and easy company throughout.

Where it comes from

Hindu Kush and Purple Afghani stand behind Royal Queen Seeds' Purple Queen, the same Central Asian mountain stock that underpins much of the purple canon. Both parents pull toward the Indica end, and the seventy-five percent result inherits their colour along with their weight. The pink and purple she is named for begins at the calyxes and works out through the leaves, though the record is honest that not every phenotype bothers to oblige.

Nose & flavour

Pine and citrus brighten the top of the nose, with a berry sweetness beneath, a fresh, layered profile, sharper than the heavy Afghani lineage might lead you to expect. The mountain heritage keeps it clean rather than cloying. Forest and fruit in balance.

The high

The effect is a deep, bodily one, relaxed and euphoric, settling comfortably without knocking you flat. A well-mannered Indica lean rather than an overwhelming one, in keeping with the twenty-five percent Sativa still in the mix. Easy, agreeable company from start to finish.

Growing it

Ready in around two months, 56 to 63 days, and easy company throughout, which makes her a forgiving grow. She forms wide, short-to-medium bushes at 80 to 120cm, side branches sitting below the main stalk but flowering just as heavily. Yields run 450 to 500 g/m² at 22% THC, with CBD recorded simply as low. Colourful, undemanding and dependable, glamour without the difficulty.
