Purple DragonEffects & Experience
The dominant effects of Purple Dragon are creative, focused, calm, and the experience is more nuanced than a simple high/low/sedating label would suggest. Onset is gradual rather than abrupt, the peak holds for roughly an hour, and the comedown is smooth, which is why this strain shows up in so many "daily driver" lists from experienced consumers.
Growing Purple Dragon
Growing Purple Dragon fits guerrilla growers and balcony cultivators, since the plant ignores light cycle and finishes before fall rains arrive. Purple Dragon runs on an 18/6 light schedule from seed to harvest, autoflower genetics ignore photoperiod, so there is no flip and no light-cycle change. Indoor yields land around up to 350 g/m2 under quality LED, and outdoor plants given full sun and 5-7 gallon containers reliably produce up to 400 g/plant. Expected plant height is 3-4 Ft. Medium, with intermediate cultivation difficulty. Practical tips that move the needle: defoliate strategically on day 21 of flower; remove fan leaves blocking interior bud sites without stripping the plant; and feed cal-mag from week 2 onward at 2-3 mL per gallon, most reverse-osmosis and soft tap water setups need it. The most common challenge growers report is late-flower humidity if your indoor RH climbs above 55% during the final two weeks.
