Purple weed is purple weed. Just like you can get purple grapes.
It's usually genetics but other factors can force normal coloring strains to turn purplish. It's pretty easy to tell when a real strain should be purple though. Some of the best strains I have ever smoked have had some purps in the mix.... They seem to give a really nice flavor to the bud and couch lock.
Ive also seen shit ass reggie that was sold as purp and was trash lol.
The smell should be fruity and the coloration should be pretty well noted and not just discoloration

Overall it doesn't mean much, some of the purplest weed I have seen was pretty meh but was just very vibrantly colored was years ago though.
Oh man. I had some cherry pie not too long ago and I just kept smelling my grinder over and over whenever I would break it up. Such a good smell and flavor. Great strain.

Seriously man, whenever I break some up to smoke I end up smelling my fingers for awhile
The other day I had two fingers practically shoved up my nose an was huffing like a mad man...
It just smelled too damn good I didn't want to stop

Depends... sometimes buds can be purple due to colder temps when flowering. In this case, the buds decrease in THC production. It can still be dank af but not as dank as it would be without the cold temp shock. The other scenario is genetically purple weed. Can be just as good as regualar buds but I have to admit, purple buds are more aesthetically pleasing imo

No, being too close to the light may cause heat stress or bleaching, the opposite of turning purple.

If it was grown under certain nm spectrum of LEDs. It can be purple to dark black, but the lower fan leafs will have close to normal color where they are covered by the upper fan leafs. You would only know that if you trimmed it yourself.

Wrong. Some purple is fruity, some is sweet without any fruity notes, and others are earthy.

Once I bought weed that was straight purple. With a tiny bit of orange hairs I think it was.
My reaction was "hmmm.. might be good might be standard" and "FUCK yea! Novelty weed! I can't wait to show my friends!"

Low Light, and Low Temps turn weed purple.
You can even grow so called purple strains, to not have a shade of purple in them.
Purple doesn't mean shit, but it's a sweet buzzword. I love buying shitty purple weed and selling it for a mark up because people are idiots.

It's not like I fucking do hand offs in the street and drive away man, If you're dumb enough to buy dirt weed for premium prices because it's purple that's on you.
Most of the people I'll sell it too are actually happy to buy it. They even come back.
