In Greek mythology, Hesperides were the keepers of a garden far away in Africa. There grew a single tree that had golden apples said to grant immortality to those that dared make the trek to find this secret place. It gave the eater energy and youth, leaving them feeling focused and alive. It’s no wonder that a group bearing the name Hesperides Gardens took the People’s Choice Award at the 2015 Dope Cup with an energetic strain of secret origins that leaves users feeling uplifted and powerful. Though the exact genetics are kept tightly under lock and key, many believe it to be a blend of ChemDawg and Purple Cotton Candy.

With consistently high THC averages of 20% or more, Cotton Purple Chem guarantees users a powerful high, with long-lasting, uplifting effects. At a 50/50 ratio, you can enjoy both a full body calm with a clear mind. The medium sized, super dense buds are dusted with white sparkling trichomes, orange hairs, and rich purple undertones giving this strain a mystical visual. The somewhat confusing flavors of skunk and cotton candy leave your palate completely at odds, while the skunky earthy aroma hits your nose with a pungent kick.

As mentioned, the high is powerful and gives you an almost invincible feeling of uplifted energy and focus. The jolt to the mind is accompanied by a slow building body high that gives users a slight feeling of laziness, though you are unlikely to experience couch lock. This strain is loved by artists, musicians, and creatives in general for its ability to kick your mood into high gear and build on that feeling over time. This often leads people to a super creative and happy headspace. Because this bud gives you a long-lasting high and isn’t likely to leave you feeling too sleepy, daytime use is recommended.

When used for stress relief, depression, anxiety, and the like, this bud offers users long-lasting relief of many of their most trying symptoms. Cotton Purple Chem is also good for nausea, lack of appetite, and fatigue as it has stimulative properties that are great for energizing the body. For mild to severe pain, higher doses of this product can be beneficial, though it’s not recommended as primary treatment.

This grow is medium to difficult and is recommended for intermediate users and above. The strain will grow inside or outside, however, it is best in controlled temperatures. The flowering time is between 8 and 10 weeks and will have an average to above average yield depending on conditions.
