Violet Sky strain: what the lab panels show
Violet Sky is a cut from the Khalifa Kush program that Planet 13 grows in-house, and we print no pedigree for it. Among the products on the Las Vegas superstore's shelf that carry a lab panel, Violet Sky comes as two flower products, one pre-roll, one vape and two concentrates from Khalifa Kush and Khalifa Yellow.
What it is
A cut grown within the Khalifa Kush program, an artist partnership, alongside Khalifa Kush and Point Breeze. What we can state is what a lab measured: the batches on our shelf now, when a batch is in, and the ones we wrote this guide from, below.
What is on our shelf now
Among the products on the Las Vegas superstore's shelf that carry a lab panel, Violet Sky comes as two flower products, one pre-roll, one vape and two concentrates from Khalifa Kush and Khalifa Yellow. The flower products test 23.4% to 24.5% THC, the pre-roll tests 23.2% THC, the vape tests 80.5% THC and the concentrates test 73.3% to 74.5% THC. Vapes and concentrates are extracts, so their THC reads far higher than plain flower's. Limonene leads three of its six panels (bright citrus, lemon and orange peel, in the terpene guide's words). Our per-batch grade, set by each panel rather than by the name, calls the batches on our shelf indica, indica-hybrid or hybrid.

What the panels showed when we wrote this guide
The live resin cart led with myrcene at 4.37%, limonene at 1.29% and ocimene at 0.62% behind it, on 75 mg/g of terpenes, at 84% THC, and graded indica; the 3.5g flower tested 18.8% THC, put caryophyllene just ahead of myrcene, and graded indica too. The 1g pre-roll's terpene panel read far outside anything a flower carries, most likely an entry error, so we leave that panel out.
What that means for you
In the batches we wrote this guide from, the cart and the flower both graded indica, though myrcene led one and caryophyllene the other. Each batch's grade is read from its own panel on the five-class spectrum, and the terpene guide covers myrcene and caryophyllene.
Questions people ask about Violet Sky
Is Violet Sky indica or sativa?
We do not type Violet Sky by its name. Our per-batch grade, set by each panel rather than by the name, calls the batches on our shelf indica, indica-hybrid or hybrid.
How strong is Violet Sky?
The flower products test 23.4% to 24.5% THC, the pre-roll tests 23.2% THC, the vape tests 80.5% THC and the concentrates test 73.3% to 74.5% THC. Vapes and concentrates are extracts, so their THC reads far higher than plain flower's. THC is a batch figure, not a property of the name, so the next batch can differ.
What does Violet Sky smell and taste like?
Limonene leads three of its six panels (bright citrus, lemon and orange peel, in the terpene guide's words). Terpenes are a large part of a strain's smell and flavor, which is why we read the panel rather than the name; sulfur compounds a terpene panel does not measure add the skunky note some strains carry.
What effects does Violet Sky have?
Effects vary from person to person and from batch to batch, so we do not promise any. What a panel tells you is the chemistry: which terpenes lead, and the grade it earns on the five-class spectrum, shown in this page's shelf table for each batch whose panel carries them.
