In the final weeks of flowering, the buds at the tops of the main stem and branches swell in size and join together into large colas. Strings of bulbous green and purple calyxes also start to ‘run' along on the lower branches, narrowing or closing the gaps between buds. Purple Bud Automatic produces many shades other than green, with foliage ranging from dark blue-green, to lavender and violet, to burgundy and dark red. Unlike strains where purple colouring is mostly caused by low temperatures and is seen mainly in the leaves, the colours of Purple Bud Automatic are seen in its calyxes and large buds as well as in its leaves. While low temperatures in the flowering period can certainly accentuate this strain's purple tendency, plants which enjoy perfect conditions all through their growing and flowering cycles should also display interesting colours. It's not uncommon to see Purple Bud Automatic finish with lime green leaves that serve to accentuate its deep purple buds.This strain takes on an even more mouth-watering look when its mature floral clusters become frosted with a layer of sparkling resin glands, adding a silvery, light-refracting sheen and accentuating the hues beneath. At their peak, the best examples of Purple Bud Automatic take on the appearance of richly coloured velvet.Dried buds taste and smell just as delicious as they look with a rich, resinous pine-sandalwood flavour and sweet, fruity, musky undertones. Purple Bud Automatic's pure indica hash plant forebears are the main source of its thick buds, rich aromas and fascinating colours. The Jamaican sativa ancestor gives some extra expansion and ‘run' to the blooming phase and, more importantly, adds an uplifting cerebral effect which improves and extends the relaxing, body-centred buzz of its indica-dominated family tree.Even seasoned growers and consumers will delight in a harvest of Purple Bud Automatic. On top of the resinous potency and delicious flavours, its striking appearance and beautiful colours will catch the eye every time. This tends to mean that purple buds disappear much faster than green ones! For a rewarding, easy to grow, autoflowering indica hybrid which stands out from the crowd and packs a serious punch, choose Purple Bud Automatic!
