About Purple Urkle
Purple Urkle is an indica from Northern California, believed to descend from Mendocino Purps with an unknown second parent. It is a West Coast classic and a parent to many modern purple strains. You may also see it listed as Purple Urkel.
The aroma is grapey and berry-sweet, with an earthy, slightly skunky base. Buds are usually compact and colorful, with deep purple leaves, orange hairs and a moderate trichome coat. Myrcene often supports the ripe grape and earthy notes, caryophyllene adds a subtle spice, and pinene can bring a light, fresh edge.
Purple Urkle is commonly described as relaxed, sleepy and happy. People often reach for it at night, when a soothing body feel and a calm mood suit the end of the day. THC usually ranges from 15% to 21%, with little CBD, and potency varies by grower and batch.
Purple Urkle can suit people who enjoy classic purple genetics and a slower pace. Start low, go slow, and give each dose time to take effect before adding more. Use WhereLeaf to find Purple Urkle at licensed dispensaries and delivery services near you.
