PURPLE HAZE

COFFEESHOP CLASSICS

Purple Haze is Ceres Seeds’ take on the legendary cannabis strain known for its vibrant purple hues and potent effects. This plant’s history traces back to the 1960s, particularly to the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco, a hub for counterculture movements, which included the burgeoning hippie movement and their exploration of psychedelic substances.

Known for its deep purple coloration and stimulating effects, the exact origins of Purple Haze are unclear. However, given characteristics we can trace this legend’s genetics, at least partly, back to a landrace Sativa strain from Thailand that farmers traditionally grew to make the locally popular cannabis cigars called Thai Sticks from.

In the colorful late sixties, Purple Haze gained widespread popularity in America and Europe and became an icon for the Flower-Power era, solidifying its place in the counterculture of the day.
Throughout the following decades, Purple Haze continued to be cultivated and enjoyed by cannabis enthusiasts for its unique combination of effects and its striking appearance. It’s often sought after for its euphoric and uplifting high, which can promote creativity and social engagement.

This elating effect, combined with this plant’s rich history and association with counterculture, continues to contribute to its enduring appeal. Today, this purple Sativa remains a favorite among cannabis connoisseurs and breeders, with various phenotypes and hybrids available, such as spectacular odorous, resinous, and high-yielding Purple Haze variety from Ceres Seeds’ long-celebrated line of Coffeeshop Classics.
