Mendocino Purps Strain Overview
The award-winning Mendicino Purps received a High Times victory in 2007, some years after sprouting out of Mendocino County soil. Since its germinating debut, “Mendo Purps” has left a trail of calm yet energized consumers wandering in a carefree state around Northern California and beyond.
Purple Mendocino is regarded as a helpful aid for anxiety, pain, and stress. It smells woody, with grape and peppery undertones. Fast-flowering with sticky nugs and purplish leaves, the formerly “clone-only” plant is now grown worldwide. Patients savor the coffee, pine, caramel, and woody flavors, which engulf the senses as quickly as the effects. Containing between 22% and 24% THC, the Purps strain may promote calmness while slightly fueling energy. Large doses are said to be sedating.
