Slurricane
Breeder: In House Genetics
Slurricane is In House Genetics' most iconic creation—a Do-Si-Dos x Purple Punch cross that helped define the modern dessert-terpene, high-resin exotic category. With deep violet-to-near-black coloration inherited from its Purple Punch parent, a creamy grape-berry-OG terpene profile, and heavy indica sedation, it has become one of the most influential boutique strains of the past decade. SeedFinder catalogs 138 direct descendants, and the #7 phenotype is widely regarded as the definitive expression of the strain.
Lineage & Genetics
Cross: Do-Si-Dos x Purple Punch
Do-Si-Dos (OGKB x Face Off OG BX1, Archive Seed Bank) contributes the cookie-gas terpene base, potency, dense bud structure, and the OG backbone. Purple Punch (Larry OG x Granddaddy Purple) contributes the grape candy sweetness, deep purple anthocyanin coloration, berry cream terpenes, and additional sedative body effects from the GDP lineage.
Terpene Profile
Caryophyllene — Dominant; provides the peppery, spicy backbone from the Do-Si-Dos side
Myrcene — Co-dominant; drives herbal earthiness and the heavy body sedation
Limonene — Citrus lift in the top notes, balancing the heavy indica base
Linalool — Floral/lavender notes especially pronounced in the #7 phenotype
Humulene — Earthy, woody supporting role
Aroma: Creamy OG and tropical blueberries dominate, layered with grape candy, berry compote, peppery spice, and a gassy Do-Si-Dos undertone. The #7 phenotype is particularly loud with heavy grape-cream notes.
Flavor: Grape and berry cream on the inhale with tropical blueberry sweetness. Exhale brings earthy OG undertones, spice, and a dessert-like finish. Smooth and full-bodied.
Effects & Experience
Onset: Slow-building; euphoria creeps in over 5-10 minutes before the body stone sets in
Deep full-body relaxation and couch-lock with a euphoric mental uplift. Appetite stimulation is strong. The indica sedation builds progressively—starts social and warm, ends deeply relaxed and sleepy. Best suited for evening and nighttime use.
Duration: 2-3+ hours of heavy sedation
Commonly Reported Uses
Growing Characteristics
Grow Tips: Responds well to topping, LST, and SCROG. Phenotype variation is common: some cuts lean grape/purple (Purple Punch dominant), others stay greener with stronger cookie-funk gas notes (Do-Si-Dos dominant). Drop nighttime temps 2-4°C below daytime in final 2 weeks to intensify purple coloration—even without cold stress, lavender swirls commonly appear. Exceptional trichome production makes it a favorite for hash and rosin. Monitor trichome development starting week 8 with magnification.
History & Origin
Slurricane was created by In House Genetics in Washington state by crossing Do-Si-Dos with Purple Punch. The strain quickly gained recognition, winning 1st Place Best Indica at the 2019 High Times Cannabis Cup Oregon and 1st Place Indica at the 2020 High Times Cannabis Cup Nevada. The #7 phenotype emerged as the most famous and widely circulated cut, known for exceptional resin production, deep purple coloration, and a heavy grape-cream terpene profile. S1 seeds (selfed #7) were later released by In House Genetics. The strain has become a cornerstone breeding parent with 138+ documented descendants, including Sugar Cane, Terple, and numerous other In House Genetics crosses that shaped an entire generation of exotic genetics.
