Auto Purple
Cannabis Strain by Pyramid Seeds
Introduction
Auto Purple from Pyramid Seeds captures the entire purple cannabis category in a single cultivar name—the definitive expression of anthocyanin-rich pigmentation genetics in a 70-day ruderalis/indica/sativa autoflowering format from Barcelona's most established seed company. When Pyramid Seeds simply names something 'Purple,' they're asserting this is the essential purple expression in their catalog.
Lineage
Pyramid Seeds has developed numerous genetics including several pigmentation-focused varieties. Auto Purple represents their foundational purple genetics offering—the variety against which other purple expressions are measured. Purple cannabis genetics trace primarily to Afghan and Hindu Kush landrace populations where anthocyanin pigmentation developed as a cold-climate adaptation, and to the specific California breeding lineages (Purple Haze, Purple Urkle, Granddaddy Purple) that made purple aesthetics central to West Coast cannabis culture. Pyramid Seeds' Auto Purple likely draws from established purple indica genetics with ruderalis addition for the 70-day autoflowering capability.
Terpenes
The terpene profile follows purple indica tradition: sweet, berry-adjacent aromatics from linalool and terpinolene alongside earthy myrcene foundation. The characteristic 'purple' terpene quality—sweet-grape with earthy warmth—defines this category. Purple pigmentation under cool temperatures accompanies the aromatic character.
Growth
Growth showcases the defining feature: anthocyanin expression potential under appropriate cool conditions (below 15°C during late flowering), producing the signature purple, blue, and dark-hued pigmentation that makes these varieties visually spectacular. The 70-day cycle is efficient for achieving this effect.
Effects
Reported effects follow purple indica tradition: relaxing, comfortable, and physically easing—the classic evening indica experience with dreamy, settled mental accompaniment.
