Mendocino Purps effects are mostly calming.

Mendocino Purps, or Mendo Purps, or even just The Purps, comes out of Mendocino County in Northern California. Winning one of the Top Ten slots in High Times' Strains of the Year in 2007, Mendocino Purps began as a clone-only plant, but BC Bud Depot developed a stable cross to make The Purps seeds available. This cannabis strain grows well both in and outdoors. It can grow 3-4 feet at harvest indoors and 6-8 feet outdoors. Flowering time for this strain is 8-9 weeks. It has medium-thick leaves and green hues that turn more purple as the plant ripens. The taste has been likened to a caramel coffee and woodsy pine.

Migraine pain 5; nausea 6 when I medicated round 1530 or so. Takes botu 5 min to start working. Pain/nausea gone. No anxiety/paranoia (an absolute must for me). Body high allowed me to eat a late lunch & kick @$$ cleanin house! Head high uplifting as I've been down today. Strong but even & not overwhelming. High lasted 3 + hour which was very nice! I'd highly recommend for daytime/after work use for pain/nausea/anxiety! Figures I did well with meds that came from Cali! :-)

OMG. This is potent. Great strain, very purple. Flowery and grape in flavor, Mendo Purps taste like a Double Grandaddy Purps with hint of Grape. By far, this is one of my FAVORITE purple strains. It is Heavily Indica Dominant, and a Heavy smoke. This would knock most out. For me, It's how I love to start my day.

Amazingly strong, euphoric come on...enjoyably like LSD. Holy shit does it DRAMATICALLY improve the quality of music and movies (doubling, if not tripling the enjoyment)! Slight emotional edginess makes it risky for beginners, but adventuresome for pros and puts you in an ideally affecting state to be moved by movies, art, etc. There is the unfortunate requisite crash that always seems to come with purple strains...and always earlier than you’d like (about halfway through the high, if not earlier). Give in to the munchies and try to power through by eating. A potent, high-quality high that deserves an almost flawless rating if not for the crash.
