Description
Purple Punch’s tale begins with a timeless strain known as Granddaddy Purple. During the early 2000s, Ken Estes, a celebrated activist, and cannabis breeder set out to create a cultivar that would offer relief from insomnia and pain. He had grown fond of a variety known as Purple Urkle but found that it lacked in yield. To improve its yield, Ken crossed his cut of Purple Urkle with a popular cash-cropping variety called Big Bud. He named the hybrid “Granddaddy Purple” to highlight the striking violet shades of the leaves and flowers.
