Purple Monkey is a hybrid. Reviews most often mention feeling aroused, sleepy and relaxed.
Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 54 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2021 came in at a median of 19.6% total THC (the middle half ranged from 18% to 21%). CBD is typically negligible (under 0.5%). That is in line with most flower on Canadian shelves. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.
In lab tests its dominant terpene is pinene, followed by myrcene and caryophyllene. Pinene is known for sharp, fresh pine, while myrcene adds earthy, musky notes with a ripe-fruit edge. Total terpene content measured a median of 1.2%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as violet, grape and skunk.
Beyond feeling aroused, reviewers also mention feeling tingly. Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with pain, anxiety and depression. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
