We bought an 1/8th of Purple Arrow from Harmony farms. Nice piney / citrus aroma, the smoke was a little dry and rough; a lot of lung tickling when you hit it. The first two to three times I smoked it, I noticed having a headache afterwards; but with subsequent smokes I didn’t experience that. The high is a really pleasant calm. I found myself really chill but not checked out.
Purple Arrow strain
Purple Arrow effects are mostly energizing.
When it comes to knocking out pain, no medical strain hits the target quite like Purple Arrow. This hybrid provides effective relief for severe pain while simultaneously inducing a sense of uplift and euphoria. Extremely well-rounded, Purple Arrow is potent without causing that over-medicated feeling of some pain relief strains. The uniqueness of this strain is complemented by its earthy aroma. Fragrant, herbal, and a little sweet, this strain tastes almost as good as it feels. When you need immediate relief and would like to stay off the couch, Purple Arrow is a fantastic choice.

Purple Arrow strain reviews(105)
good pain/inflammation relief for a thc strain.
My strains for pain so far: 1. Purple Arrow - Like it's name suggests it targets pain very quickly, and you can still mow the lawn or paint a portrait immediately after medicating. No real plateau, and no need to smoke into oblivion. Slightly lower in THC than most strains these days, and that's fine with me. Also very productive. 2. East Coast Sour Diesel - Great to toke when drinking your morning coffee and reading the news (back pain free). A very CLEAR high. Watch out, though. This high has no plateau, and you will be too high to function on anything other than vedging out if you smoke too much. 3. Hell's OG (f.k.a. Hell's Angel OG) - The best "knock you out" strain pretty much ever. Great for killing pain but get ready to CRAWL into bed or lay on the couch shortly after. Too much of this strain will first put you into an almost LSD-like psychedelic high. Great for sleepless PTSD after the first 15-20 minutes. If you suffer from Pain/Insomnia/PTSD this is the greatest stuff ever. 4. Trainwreck - Also great for pain, but first 20 minutes is pure psychedelia before targeting pain and slowing down to a more Indica-type high. Will also put you to sleep after about 90 minutes. I would live happy with a lifetime supply of these 4 herbs. No specific order except for PA which I consider Pain Enemy #1. 5. Gorilla Glue - Great smoke, great high. Might put you to sleep after 90 minutes or so. I almost left this out just because there are better strains for pain out there. But also, a good pain strain, and also good for insomnia. Just my $0.02...
Best strain for pain and keeping a clear head hands down!
After back and neck surgeries, I was declared disabled. I had been on hydrocodone for a bunch of years and then switched to morphine. In addition I was on muscle relaxers and gabapentin. I realized I was/had turned into a zombie. It was recommended that I try marijuana for pain management instead of the pharma I was taking. Having worked with Purple Arrow for the pain for approximately three months I am off the morphine, muscle relaxers and the gabapentin. Purple Arrow is a life saver for me. No wonder big pharm wants this kept on the back burner. I now spend way less on PW that what I was spending on the pharma.
Addresses pain without the couch lock. I caught a bit of citrus (grapefruit?) on the exhale. Delicious. Def recommend.
Partaken through an oilpen. Each hit was equivalent to three bongloads. This will get you stoooooooooned.
Well well. Isn't that a deep subject? And isn't this one heck of a nicely balanced product indeed. It comes on slowly but doesn't feel like a creeper. Nor does it hit all at once. More so, it feels like it has stages. The first stage is, "hmm, nothing, I'll take another hit". The second stage is, oh that just tastes good, is smooth, and feels nice so I'm going to take another just because its nice." Third stage - well well, isn't this one heck of a nicely balanced product. :) This may very well be my favorite, running a close race with Blue Dream. The body is relaxed, the mind is open and quiet yet attentive. The need to rush disappears. Colors seem a bit more vivid. Overall, a fine selection for me. Your mileage may vary of course, as always.
in my zeal to try as many strains as possible, I rarely try a given strain more than 3x (I'm just not the pothead I used to be - sigh), but this strain has so many 'uses' that it's won my popularity contest - if the measure is frequency of use. a budtender recommended it for going to a concert so I wouldn't be jumping out of my chair - or nodding out. he was right; it was perfect for that - but it's also got other great traits: it's creative, clear-headed, and unusually analgesic (I think I've noticed a correlation between purple strains and analgesic, but more 'research' is necessary). it doesn't make you get too much into your thoughts, which makes sense since it's a hybrid, not a full-on sativa, and, as if that wasn't good enough, every sample I've had of this has been quite potent. definitely worth picking up if you see it; it never sticks around long, from what I've seen.
Very relaxing and helps with headaches. I like that it doesn't feel too stoney. I tend to use this when Blue Dream doesn't work or I've had BD too recently and i need to switch it up. The only downside is the voracious appetite I get. The word "munchies" doesn't even describe it. Most strains actually don't give me the munchies. I guess I've been lucky that way. One hour in, Purple Arrow makes me feel like I didn't eat all day, even though I just had three squares. A day of meticulously counted calories goes out the window and I HAVE to eat. Two-hours in, I suddenly feel so tired that I can't keep my eyes open and I have to drag myself to bed. This is OK but I'm not generally looking for a sleep aid - that's not my issue. But really, if I've prepared for both of these outcomes in advance, PA makes a great pain reliever without any anxiety or paranoia, which is paramount for me in any strain.
