Genetics & Lineage

Purple Haze is the perfect marriage of legendary landrace genetics that created one of cannabis history’s most iconic strains:

Purple Thai: A pure Sativa landrace from Thailand known for its energizing cerebral effects and distinctive purple coloration. This strain gives its offspring the uplifting euphoria and exotic visuals that made Purple Haze famous in the first place.

Haze: Another legendary Sativa landrace that originated in California during the 1960s. Haze strains provide the soaring mental stimulation, creative inspiration, and long-lasting effects that define classic Sativa strain experiences.

This 85/15 sativa-dominant hybrid brings you the best of both parent strains. Its defining characteristics include an uplifting mental sensation paired with an energizing body high that feels grounded and functional. 

Cannabinoid & Terpene Content

Purple Haze: The Best Weed Strain Of The Month

Purple Haze ranks among the strongest strains in Arete’s catalog, delivering serious potency even for experienced users.

Arete’s Purple Haze contains 29.3% THC with 30.4% total active cannabinoids. Its terpene content reaches 2.5% with complex aromatics and a powerful entourage effect that enhances the overall session.

Any seasoned user will tell you that THCa produces the exact same effects as delta-9 THC. This is because THCa is the precursor to Delta-9, meaning THCa transforms into delta-9 THC when heated, like from the spark of a lighter.

Visuals, Aromas, & Flavors

At first glance, you’ll notice that Purple Haze lives up to its name with super frosty dark buds featuring stunning purple and green coloration, complemented by vibrant orange pistils.

Crack open a nug, and brace yourself. Sweet and sour notes hit first, followed by complex herbal and berry undertones that create a truly sophisticated aromatic profile.

This mouthwatering aroma translates directly into flavor with every hit, delivering the same sweet, sour, herbal, and berry notes that make this strain instantly recognizable to Purple Haze fans.

If you’re into complex, layered aromas that translate into ultra-specific flavors, this strain delivers a sensory experience that’s genuinely unmatched.

Effects

Purple Haze: The Best Weed Strain Of The Month

Purple Haze is becoming increasingly popular for good reason: it delivers the euphoric, uplifting experience that made it a cultural icon.

Arete’s Purple Haze is one of the most potent batches we’ve tried, thanks to its generous THCa content that naturally converts to classic delta-9 THC.

Expect to “kiss the sky” with this potent cultivar. Typical effects experienced when consuming Purple Haze include:

  • Euphoria that elevates mood instantly
  • Uplifting mental stimulation and creative inspiration
  • Energizing cerebral effects are perfect for daytime activities
  • Gentle relaxation that doesn’t interfere with productivity
  • Long-lasting effects that maintain intensity throughout the session

Best for daytime use or when you need creative inspiration, this legendary strain practically screams artistic expression and deep stoner thoughts. Using it at nighttime isn’t recommended, as the energizing Sativa effects might keep you too stimulated for sleep.

If you’re after a sweet, complex smoke with historically significant genetics and exceptionally powerful effects, get your hands on this legendary heavy hitter.
