Seb's take
The regular version of Violeta, 60% Indica to 40% Sativa, turning shades of purple and violet through flowering. Balsamic and fruity on the nose over thick, dense buds, with an effect that runs relaxed and happy but energetic enough to keep moving. Adaptable as far north as latitude 47.
Where it comes from
Purple Malawi crossed with Pakistan Chitral Kush, a properly well-travelled pairing. A Malawian sativa, famous for its colour and its climb, meets a Kush from the Chitral valley in Pakistan's north, and Ace Seeds hold the two at 60% indica in a first-generation F1 hybrid. Offered as regular seed, she is a plant for the grower who wants to work the genetics rather than simply run them. The purple her Malawi side is named for comes through vividly once she turns to flower.
Nose & flavour
Balsamic and fruity on the nose, the record has it, with a woody depth beneath and a pungency that carries. It is an aroma with two halves, the bright fruit of the Malawi sativa over the resinous weight of the Chitral Kush, and the two sit together well. Not a discreet plant, but a characterful one.
The high
The high runs relaxed and happy but keeps enough energy in reserve to stay useful, the sativa half declining to let the indica have things entirely its own way. At 12 to 17% THC it is honest about what it is: a moderate, balanced effect rather than an overwhelming one. Pleasant daytime company, lifted without being wired.
Growing it
Height and yield go unrecorded, so I will not put figures to either. What the record gives is an indoor flowering of eight to nine weeks and a genuinely adaptable constitution; she takes both warm and cold conditions, and can be grown as far north as latitude 47, which recommends her to the shorter European summer. Feed her moderately through the cycle rather than heavily; she does not want for much. A hardy, colourful F1 for the grower content to select his own keepers.
