Keep reading to learn all there is to know about Purple Octane, its history, genetics, and more.



History of the Purple Octane Cannabis Strain



Purple Octane is a pungent purple cannabis hybrid created by JBeezy at Seed Junky Genetics. While we don't know exactly when this strain was created, one thing is certain; Purple Octane has become a staple of both Seed Junky's flower and genetics catalogs. In flower form, Purple Octane can be found across North American dispensaries. Meanwhile, Purple Octane seeds and clones are hard to source, but are available to those willing to look hard and pay a high price.



Starting in a humble garage in Southern California, JBeezy and the Seed Junky brand are currently some of the biggest names in the American genetics game. Despite being involved in some disputes with other genetics brands (including Cookies and Tiki Madman), JBeezy continues to be respected for the quality of his strains. Some of the most popular Seed Junky Genetics strains include:



• Animal Cookies


• The Soap


• Jealousy


• Animal Mints


• LA Kush Cake



Genetic Lineage of Purple Octane



According to Seed Junky Genetics, Purple Octane is an indica-dominant hybrid strain combining genetics from Biscotti, Sherbet, and Jealousy lineages. Keep reading to learn more about all three of these strains:



Biscotti is an indica-dominant hybrid strain with highly debated genetics. Some sources claim that it's a cross of Gelato and Florida OG, while others suggest that Biscotti descends from a three-way cross of GSC, Gelato, and OG Kush or GG4. While its exact genetics might remain a mystery, there's no question about Biscotti's appeal. Boasting a rich mix of terpenes, Biscotti smells just like the sweet treat she's named after, combining notes of sweet vanilla and caramelized dough with a tangy, diesel-like overtone. Combined with its high concentration of cannabinoids, Biscotti delivers a relaxing, tingly body buzz and an uplifting, cerebral high that gets a lot of appreciation from creative daytime smokers as well as medical patients.



Sherbet/Sherbert (also known as Sherbert OG or Sunset Sherbert) is Mario Guzman/Sherbinskis' flagship strain. Descending from GSC and Pink Panties, this sugary-sweet variety packs up to 29% THC and around 33% total cannabinoids. Moreover, its terpene profile combines caryophyllene, limonene, linalool, myrcene, and humulene, which give Sherbert its tropical aroma that combines upfront notes of orange and berries with earthy cinnamon, musky and fruity hops, lavender, and fresh pine. Light her up, and Sherbert will coat your palate with her creamy, fruity, and chocolatey flavors. Then, only minutes after you inhale your first toke, you'll enjoy a soothing sense of physical relaxation, accompanied by an uplifting, stress-free, and social head high.



Jealousy, Purple Octane's third parent, is a highly celebrated cross of Gelato and Sherbert that has won many accolades, including the title of Leafly Strain of The Year in 2022. Bred by JBeezy, Jealousy is arguably one of Seed Junky's most successful strains, with many users treasuring its particularly balanced effects. Both recreational and medical cannabis users praise Jealousy's high, which couples a relaxing, yet not sedating, body buzz with a creeping mental euphoria. Many people find that this strain helps to promote creativity and focus. Meanwhile, medical patients report enjoying this strain to address a wide variety of symptoms and ailments.



Physical Characteristics of Purple Octane Cannabis



Purple Octane is an indica-dominant strain, and that shines through in its morphology. In general, these plants are short and stocky, with tightly spaced nodes and bushy, bright green leaves. The strain seems to grow vigorously and produce plants of moderate stature with strong stems and branches. Plus, Purple Octane plants are known to produce their iconic aromas as little as two weeks into the bloom phase. During this stage of growth, Purple Octane plants are also known to stretch considerably. Finally, as Purple Octane plants mature, they become progressively darker and produce elongated, fat flowers completely covered in bright white resin. As her name suggests, Purple Octane has a high tendency to turn purple during the late flowering phase, producing flowers with a stunning mix of green, purple, and orange hues.



Properties and Effects of Purple Octane



As many smokers suspect from any strain created by JBeezy and Seed Junky, Purple Octane is stinky, very potent, and boasts a complex flavor profile. Loaded with a thick frosting of trichomes, Purple Octane comes packed with cannabinoids and terpenes. According to some lab test results by US dispensaries, Purple Octane typically boasts around 25% THC and trace amounts of CBG and CBL. Meanwhile, its terpene profile is dominated by:



• Linalool


• Pinene


• Humulene


• Myrcene



Together, these highly aromatic compounds give Purple Octane its gassy stank. Pop a lid off a freshly cured batch of Purple Octane and you'll find yourself apologizing to anyone around you for the strain's intense aroma. Gear up for notes of sweet grapes with earthy, nutty undertones alongside floral hints of lavender and pine, and a musky bite of hops and lingering notes of diesel. Light her up and Purple Octane will flood your mouth with a thick, creamy smoke boasting notes of spice and a strong gassy bite.



In terms of effects, Purple Octane is potent, though not as hard-hitting as you might expect. In fact, many users find her effects to come on gently, reminiscent of her Jealousy parent. A few moments after your first toke, you'll notice a calming, warming body buzz extending from your chest all the way out to your extremities. But don't worry—if you've got a decent tolerance, Purple Octane's effects won't necessarily leave you glued to the couch. Along with her soothing body stone comes an uplifting cerebral energy. You'll have no problem sinking into your armchair or bed if that's what you desire, but Purple Octane can also leave experienced users feeling alert and ready to engage in conversation or light leisurely activities.



Uses of Purple Octane Cannabis



Purple Octane has won over both recreational and medical cannabis users. Rec smokers, for example, enjoy this strain:



• While playing video games or watching movies


• To relax before bed


• After work or working out


• Before dinner


• On lazy Sundays or "staycations"



Given its mix of relaxing physical effects and uplifting mental properties, it comes as little surprise that Purple Octane also appeals to medical marijuana users, who use it in hopes of addressing the following symptoms/conditions:



• Anxiety


• Stress


• Pain


• Inflammation


• Insomnia


• Appetite loss


• Mood disorders


• Sore/stiff muscles



As is the case with all cannabis strains, Purple Octane can produce side effects in some people. Users with a low tolerance, for example, may be overwhelmed by the strength of this strain and its physical effects. Purple Octane can cause some of the following side effects:



• Dry mouth and eyes


• Sedation/couch-lock


• Headaches


• Anxiety


• Paranoia



Cultivation and Production of Purple Octane



Purple Octane seeds were available from Seed Junky Genetics and retailers, though stocks seem to have run low. Some cannabis nurseries, such as Kaprikorn in Lowell, Oregon, continue to sell clones of Purple Octane.



Generally speaking, Purple Octane is a fast and vigorous indica strain that grows bushy and stocky. Thanks to its vigor, Purple Octane responds well to training methods. It is also well-suited to indoor cultivation, though it can perform quite well outdoors, too. Besides LST, topping, trimming, defoliation, and lollipopping are good methods to employ when growing this strain to maximize its focus on key bud sites towards the top of her canopy.



Once in bloom, Purple Octane plants can stretch to almost double their height. Growers also report that this strain is a heavy feeder. Then, come harvest time, Purple Octane supposedly produces modest yields, though the quality of her flowers is very impressive. Purple Octane buds boast a dense indica structure and excellent resin production, as well as great bag appeal (thanks to their vibrant colors and frosty coating of trichomes).
