Jilly Bean is the unknown in Jilly Bean Grape 5 seed pack (Purple Urkle x Jilly Bean). The known part is Purple Urkle, the Emerald Triangle purple keeper that most of California's colour reputation rests on, and it is the reason the cross was worth making at all.

5 identifies the Jilly Bean Grape used here. Numbered cuts come out of a population that was grown and sorted, and the number rides with the plant that was kept. Two crosses that both say Jilly Bean Grape are only the same cross if the number matches too.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Purple Urkle. The Emerald Triangle purple keeper that most of California's colour reputation rests on. Dense purple flower in a closed canopy is where mould starts.
• Father: Jilly Bean. Named by MzJill as a parent. It is working stock rather than a catalogue release, so no public write-up exists and what it brings shows up in the plants.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

• The Aroma. Sweet grape and dark berry over earthy skunk, myrcene-dominant.
• The Taste. Dark fruit up front, musk and earth behind it.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. Compact and indica-built; deep purple colour hardest where night temperatures drop late.
• Before the flip. Decide the shape now. These lines do not tidy themselves up once they are running.
• Flowering Time. Purple Urkle runs around eight weeks indoors, inside a seven to nine week window. Start checking trichomes a week before you expect to be ready.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Purple Urkle as settled and unhurried; the heavy, physical end.
• The Body. Reported in line with that. This is not a plant described as pulling in two directions.
