About Saffron
Saffron is an indica-leaning hybrid bred by Purple City Genetics in California. It is the result of a cross between the breeder's own Moroccan Peaches and Street Guru, blending award-winning peach genetics with a gassy, Kush Mints-rooted backbone. The strain is noted for a layered aromatic profile that balances the sweetness of ripe stone fruit with peppery spice and a warm, herbal earthiness. Its lineage includes the award-winning Moroccan Peaches, which secured a first-place finish for rosin at the 2023 Emerald Cup.
Reported effects typically begin with a wave of euphoria and a period of subtle creative focus, eventually transitioning into a deep, full-body relaxation and a heavy, sedative finish often favored for evening use.
Plant characteristics
Saffron exhibits a compact, bushy, indica-leaning structure. Indoors, plants typically reach heights of two to three feet, while outdoor specimens can grow to four or five feet. The plant produces dense, resin-heavy buds.
