What Lavender Jones is
Leafly lists Lavender Jones, also known as Purple Jones, as a hybrid cross of Purple Urkle and Casey Jones. It credits Purple Urkle with the strain's purple and green colouring and dense buds, and Casey Jones with its dreamy, cerebral side. Weedmaps gives the same parents and says the original breeder remains a mystery.
Sources split on the lean. AllBud calls it a sativa-dominant hybrid, 60% sativa and 40% indica, while Leafly files it as a hybrid with mostly calming effects. Casey Jones itself is a sativa: Leafly's Casey Jones page says it was bred from Oriental Express (Trainwreck x Thai) and East Coast Sour Diesel.
Look, smell and taste
Leafly describes vibrant purple and green buds; AllBud describes long, tapered, dark forest green buds with fiery orange hairs and chunky white trichomes. The guide to what makes weed purple explains where those hues come from.
Leafly reviewers' top flavours are lavender, flowery and violet. AllBud describes a sweet, floral aroma with a hint of grape, which it calls typical of purple genetics, and a sweet, floral grape taste with fragrant fruit on the exhale. Leafly's lab data puts myrcene first, followed by pinene and caryophyllene; the cannabis terpenes guide covers all three.
Effects people report
Leafly reviewers most often report feeling relaxed, aroused and happy, and Leafly describes deep relaxation coupled with a dreamy, cerebral euphoria. AllBud describes a deeply relaxing onset that builds into an introspective, hazy and dreamy state, spacey but without heavy sedation or couch lock. The negatives Leafly users mention most are feeling anxious, dry mouth and dry eyes.
