She doesn’t just turn heads—she stops the whole room. This is a tropical firework with a punch, blending the neon citrus zest of Tropicana Cookies with the syrupy, candy-coated body of Purple Punch. The result is a proper standout: buds that look as outrageous as they taste and a buzz that outlasts your playlist. It’s a balanced ride—clear, creative up top with an easy body unwind. If you’re chasing flavour, bag appeal, and drive without the crash, this is your ticket.
Quick Stats
Tropicana Cookies Purple is a balanced hybrid (≈ 60% sativa / 40% indica) with THC averaging 18–24% (CBD: <1%). She finishes in 8–9 weeks indoors. Outdoors in Australia she’s ready: North late March–early April • Mid early–mid April • South mid–late April. Expect around 450–550 g/m² indoors and up to 700 g/plant outdoors in warm climates. Flavour is a tropical bomb—sweet citrus and mango with berry hints over an earthy base. Matty’s tip: drop night temps by 5–10 °C in the final fortnight to unlock those vivid purples.
The Grow (Matty’s Way)
Skill level: Easy–Medium. Forgiving for first-timers, scales hard with good training.
Training & support: Loves topping and a SCROG to widen the canopy. Dense, weighty buds appreciate stakes or a trellis late in flower.
Matty’s Feeding & pH Know-How: “Keep her steady: EC 1.6–2.0 in bloom, pH 6.0–6.5 in soil. Don’t drown her—good airflow and sensible dry-backs keep those big colas happy. Ease off with plain water at the end for a clean, punchy finish.”
Flavour & Effects
On the nose: Tropical fruit basket—sweet citrus and mango with a little earthy funk.
On the tongue: Fruit-salad zing up front, syrupy berry depth on the back, smooth sweet exhale.
First wave: Clear, creative, social lift—great for projects, a jam, or a yarn with mates.
Then it settles: Gentle body release that takes the edge off without couch-lock. Versatile for day or evening.
Matty’s Take: “Think tropical punch with a velvet afterglow—she’ll get you talking, then she’ll tuck you in.”
Grow Log: Inside the Tent
Phase/Week | Key Action/Status | Matty’s Tip |
---|---|---|
Veg Week 3 | Explosive lateral growth; canopy filling out. | Top early and spread her—she takes to SCROG like a champ. |
Flower Week 2 | Stretch on; pistils stacking. | Switch to bloom feed now and tighten RH—buds are incoming. |
Flower Week 5 | Bulking hard; terps roaring. | Carbon filter mandatory—the room will smell like tropical cordial. |
Flower Week 7 | Purple hues popping; resin layering thick. | Cool nights (–5 to –10 °C) bring the colour—mind your VPD. |
Harvest Week 8–9 | Milky trichs with flecks of amber. | Flush ~10 days for max flavour and that clean, sugary finish. |
Matty’s Advanced Notes (For the Nerds)
- VPD & RH: 1.0–1.2 kPa (late veg) • 1.3–1.5 kPa (flower); RH 40–50% in bloom.
- PPFD: 700–900 µmol/m²/s in peak flower; watch for top bleaching if you push higher.
- EC Targets: 1.6–2.0 in bloom; steady beats heavy—avoid sudden jumps.
- Lighting: Full-spectrum LEDs shine here; a mild red push in late flower helps colour and density.
- Terpenes: Limonene (citrus lift), Myrcene (earthy body tone), Caryophyllene (spicy depth).
- Pheno Notes: Some phenos lean green-orange with purple flecks—flavour and potency still bang-on.
Common Pitfalls to Avoid
- Mould & rot: Dense tops demand airflow—use fans and keep RH honest.
- Nutrient burn: She’s hungry, not invincible—feed steady, watch the tips.
- Harvest timing: Don’t chop early—weeks 8–9 deliver peak terp expression.
- Light stress: Keep distance in late flower—resin caps can bleach under hot lamps.
- Colour expectations: Purple varies by pheno and temps—don’t chase colour at the cost of plant health.
