Velvet Purps is one of those purple strains whose physical appearance is highly dependant on the environment it is grown in. Most grows turn the temperature down in order to get the deep purple, and sometimes almost-black, color that most consumers are enamored to see in a sea of green buds. Sometimes these buds come out bright olive green with just a number of purple undertones accenting the flower. A number of bright red pistils wind their way through this flower and stand out as a stark contrast to the bud’s usually purple appearance. These nugs are often coated in a hearty layer of crystal-clear trichomes which also contrast against the usually dark purple appearance of these flowers.
