i would say that this is some bud that got a little supplement of purple food coloring before harvest. doesn't add or take away from the high (looks like it was bomb bud to begin with), but looks cool. and don't undermine me and say "well, it could just be a crazy strain", because purple all over like that (especially inside the stem) is just not found in nature. chlorophyll production would be throttled back too much for a potent plant strain. that said i've seen a few plants that have heavily purpled leaves, even buds, with a touch of purple on the stems.. but you snap the stem and it's clean and white inside:


see the deposition of purple color around the edges of the stem base? not natural..
that said, i would definitely be happy to smoke bud like that, looks tight.
dank pick up.

I've seen Purple Power that is pure purple.

grand daddy puprle is purple on the inside so if you dropped the temp with that could it be possible for it to be completely purple?

no? im talking about the color of the inner stalk.. there in no way to make that any other color than white (or brown if disease/rot sets in) in nature. the outside of the stalk, leaves, calyxes, etc - they can be colored. not arguing that... not even trying to take away from this bud! but there is no way to color the inner stalk unless there is a contaminate in the food supply of the plant, directly depositing the contaminates inside the roots and veins of the plant. there is nothing in the inner stalk that can naturally change color (or even have color), all it is, is starch and nutrients.
