Her unique blend of 50% Indica and 50% Sativa genetics results in a high that is both uplifting and relaxing, making her perfect for daytime use or a mellow evening session.

Strain Description:

Purple #1 Feminised is a strong, uniform outdoor hybrid known for its spectacular purple hues and easy cultivation. Shortly after the onset of flowering, her buds and even pistils begin to turn shades of pink, violet, and deep purple — especially when grown in cooler nighttime conditions. Her flowers can stretch up to 50 cm long and form large, resinous colas with excellent resistance to mould and bud rot.


Although originally bred for outdoor and greenhouse cultivation, Purple #1 also performs well indoors with proper care. The plants maintain a balanced hybrid structure — tall and slender like a Sativa, yet with the bud density and flower speed of an Indica. She thrives in organic soil, where her full, earthy, Afghan-inspired flavour really shines.


Her sturdy, weather-resistant nature makes her a favourite among guerrilla and outdoor growers in cooler regions. Whether in open ground or large pots, Purple #1’s adaptability ensures consistent, high-quality results with minimal effort.


Flavour and Aromas:

Purple #1 has a distinct old-school Afghan aroma profile — a mix of earth, spice, and fruit layered with floral and tart undertones. Some phenotypes express subtle pine or chemical notes, while others lean towards sweet fruit and citrus. When smoked or vaped, she offers a flavour that perfectly mirrors her aroma — slightly tart, earthy, and spicy, with a soft sweetness on the exhale. The result is a nostalgic, authentic “Afghan hash plant” experience with a purple twist.


Strain Lineage:

• Purple Afghan: Classic Afghan variety known for its rich resin and deep purple hues.

• Dutch Outdoor Hybrid: Selectively bred for climate resilience and shorter flowering time in northern Europe.


Growing Information:

Purple #1 Feminised was designed for outdoor performance but adapts easily to different setups. Outdoors, she typically reaches between 1.5–2.5 m tall, developing long, elegant branches and a Christmas-tree shape. Indoors, she stays smaller (1–1.5 m) and finishes quickly under a 12/12 light cycle. Her internodes are moderately spaced, and her buds have a more open structure — helping prevent mould in humid climates.


She thrives best in organic soil, where her terpene profile truly comes alive. Purple #1 responds well to light training techniques such as LST or FIM and can also be topped to maintain a manageable size. While she was bred for outdoor and greenhouse grows, she can be cultivated indoors successfully with careful management of temperature and light distance to avoid stress or light burn.


Cold nights enhance her purple pigmentation and visual appeal, while warm, sunny days drive her resin production and yield. Despite her showy colours, she’s not just a beauty — she’s tough, reliable, and capable of impressive results in nearly any environment.


Effects:

Purple #1’s high is balanced, clear, and uplifting. The onset is fast and energising, with a euphoric head high and creative buzz from her Sativa heritage. As the experience progresses, her Indica side brings gentle relaxation, easing muscles and calming the mind without heavy sedation. The effect is short to medium in duration — ideal for daytime use or a light evening session.


Users describe the high as happy, sociable, and mentally refreshing. It’s an excellent “wake-and-bake” strain, leaving you functional, relaxed, and clear-headed. The mild comedown ensures you wake up the next day feeling rested and focused.


Strain Summary:

Purple #1 (Feminised) is Dutch Passion’s original purple masterpiece — a robust, fast-flowering hybrid that blends Afghan resilience with Dutch refinement. Her easy growth, eye-catching colour, and old-school flavour make her a timeless favourite for outdoor growers. If you’re seeking a beautiful, reliable, and nostalgic strain that thrives in variable climates and delivers both style and substance, Purple #1 is the perfect choice.
