Is purple haze extinct?

    I always hear people saying purple haze is extinct. I sometimes see people online saying that too is it true? How did it become extinct? I really want to know since one of my idols (jimi hendrix) loved purple haze and i've always wanted to try it
    also does it release purple smoke or is that a lie too??

    Thats the theory but its impossible to know for sure. If it is, there are probably a few strains going around claiming to be Purple Haze but since we can confirm, quit worrying and smoke what ya got :)

    Purple Haze - by Jimi Hendrix isn't about weed. It's about a dream Jimi had where he was walking around under the ocean.

    It has been cited in many documentaries. Some say it was a dream, but I think he was trippin hard.

    Hmm interesting, i'd heard that Purple Haze was about Acid and a type (blotter paper) of Acid that was around at the time.

    Ahh well it all adds to the mystery :smoking:

    ""I dream a lot and I put a lot of my dreams down as songs," Hendrix said in a 1969 interview with the New Musical Express, "I wrote one called 'First Around the Corner' and another called 'The Purple Haze,' which was all about a dream I had that I was walking under the sea."[6] The term "purple haze" has been used to refer to LSD, due to the form sold by Sandoz, called Delysid, which came in purple capsules. Furthermore, Purple Haze is a particular strand of marijuana noted for its 'purple' appearance, therefore this is the most credible reference as 'kissing the sky' means 'to get high'.[7][8] Common legend is that Jimi was on Owsley Stanley Purple Haze LSD when he composed the song."

    Haha same.
    And since no one else answered this, the smoke isn't purple...

    Some say the original strain, like back in the 70s is extinct because it has been cross bred so many times and you can't find the original anymore, but since it's been cross bred with better strains to make a better product, who cares?

    I've always heard jimi hendrix just said it was about a dream, but it's actually about acid.

    Haha he is your "idol" yet you didnt know that song is about a dream? hahahaha. And the original is extinct. Some dispensaries have bud called purple haze, but it shares none of the genetics the original did. From what others here have said anyway.
