The record · 3 sections
Amethyst brings us a new perspective of purple cannabis.
Using two recent renderings of an old school profile, we have found very interesting hash plant variations in this cross.
The mother is a descendent of the Mendo Purps, a long-held Mendocino strain that derives its origins from Pakistani or Chitrali purples from the past.
It holds the spicey gas flavor with a sweet tangy berry overtone.
The Paki Chitral Kush is definitely a preserved landrace, which we obtained from Ace Seeds.
The structure is bushy and squat.
The PCK grows purple and produces thick resin.
We expect to see a bit more variation on this cross.
Some may take on the frosty Mendo look, while others may contribute more vigor with a raw landrace feel.
