Bob 87

Bob 87 – Purple City Genetics

Bob 87 from Purple City Genetics is an exclusive premium strain for discerning collectors and lovers of modern Sativa lines. The strain is based on a cross between Bob Hope (Super Lemon Haze x Durban Biscotti) and Strains1987, and has clear Sativa characteristics. Despite its Sativa orientation, Bob 87 impresses with a comparatively fast flowering time of around 70–80 days, making it particularly attractive to connoisseurs of efficient genetics. 

Bob 87 has an intense and complex aroma: sour citrus, sweet notes, gassy undertones and a classic kick ensure a distinctive, recognisable terpene profile. The overall package is complemented by a strong, clear effect that clearly sets this strain apart from standard genetics.

Purple City Genetics – Oakland, California

Purple City Genetics, or PCG for short, has been around since 2008. They are based in Oakland and started out as a cannabis collective. Over the years, as the cannabis scene in the States kept shifting, they adjusted too. These days, they breed for everyone from home growers to large-scale farms, but they still keep their quality standards high. They have picked up plenty of awards along the way at different events and cups. Their strains are easy enough for beginners to work with, but experienced growers will get a lot out of them too.

PCG’s catalogue is not just about yield – though they do that well – it is about flavour and potency too. They put out some pretty wild crosses, and their terpene profiles are always something to talk about. Sometimes they release small-batch strains that disappear fast, so it is worth keeping an eye out.
