The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.

One of my least favorite strains is Purple Punch. Though the body effects and flavor are usually fine, the head effects just don’t hit my sweet spot. Ironically, though, I usually enjoy purple punch crosses, so for this News Joint Grow Journal 7.0 cycle, I decided to pop Black Cherry Punch by 34 Mongrels as my one nighttime strain. Black Cherry Punch is a cross of Black Cherry Pie (Cherry Pie and Blackberry Kush) and Grape Punch.

Before legalization, purple weed had its own mythology. Old heads spoke of special growing techniques, special locations it could be cultivated, and of course, about how much higher it could get you. Today, we’ve got more facts about anthocyanin-rich flower but my interest still piques when I see purple in a cultivar name. The latest cut to grab my attention is Purple Churro from FloraCal , so I stopped into Sunnyside Champaign and picked up a sample to review.
