Sr71 by Purple City Genetics
Unknown
SR71 is an indica-dominant cultivar from Purple City Genetics, known for its deep coloration and balanced effects. This strain offers a refined version of the classic "purple indica" profile, combining appealing bag appeal with a predictable growth structure.
Appearance
SR71 develops compact, dense flowers characterized by significant calyx swelling and a frosted trichome layer that appears early and persists through the cure. Under cooler conditions, buds display striking deep purples, ranging from wine to eggplant hues, contrasting with copper or burnt orange pistils. The plant exhibits a stocky, symmetrical structure with tight internode spacing, typically reaching 70-120 cm indoors, and moderate stretch during flowering.
Aroma & Flavor
The aromatic profile of SR71 features sweet, fruity top notes layered over earthy, spicy, and incense-like undertones, reminiscent of a classic "purple" cannabis scent. Flavors often mirror the aroma, presenting a combination of berry, candy, earthy, floral, fruity, grape, orange, and peppery notes.
Effects
Primarily indica-leaning, SR71 is well-suited for evening use, promoting body-centered relaxation and a calm, clear mental state at moderate doses. It is often associated with heavy relaxation without inducing excessive grogginess.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
THC content in SR71 typically ranges from the high teens to the mid-20s, with CBD levels consistently below 1%. The terpene profile is described as leaning towards classic "purple" characteristics, with dominant terpenes including Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Pinene, and Humulene.
Growing
SR71 is noted for its commercial reliability, featuring manageable height and predictable stretch, making it suitable for high-density cultivation. It performs well indoors under high-intensity lighting and benefits from dialed-in environmental controls and consistent feeding. The strain has a relatively fast flowering window of 7-9 weeks.
Origins & Lineage
Developed by Oakland-based Purple City Genetics, SR71 draws inspiration from Bay Area cannabis lore and the SR-71 Blackbird, symbolizing stealthy potency and precision breeding. Its lineage is rooted in classic Kush and Afghani-influenced indica lines, refined to enhance color expression, resin density, and commercial viability while preserving a traditional "purple indica" experience.
