More recently I have seen some jawbreakers being sold saying they have purple but when I look I am not so sure. I have one that has the same “purple” but I don’t really think this is purple. I actually think these are areas where red is coming through from underneath and it causes these areas to look a bit purplish but when the red comes through this effect goes away. Would anyone agree with that? There’s a pic of mine below showing the area I am talking about.

I also wanted to see if we could get some pics posted showing what the purple does look like if/when it comes through.

Hard to say without waiting to see what it does. I agree that it does not look like the purple should in a Jawbreaker.

These are not my pictures, just a couple example from Google. The purple is fairy stand alone and not blurred.

I sold a Jawbreaker to @arnallop3 a while back that I believe has developed some purple. Perhaps he can post a picture showing it.

Some of mine in the past had questionable purple spots and of course all their mouths have hues of the purps. I have some pictures that have a few grains of sand on the shroom and with no lens filter, reflects the violet in my lights to create a purple polka dot look but they are just white grains of sand reflecting. Pretty cool looking tho. You can see it stand out on the red in this photo.
This is my second oldest JB, first offspring of the first pictured and it doesnt have purple yet but has this amazing orange spot coming right off the mouth that has been there for years so im certain its staying that color. All 50 of my Jawbreakers have been from the same mother and they all have had radically different coloration appear on them respectively.

That one is looking good! Lots of red on the baby as well. The purple beside the green is awesome, time will tell how awesome it becomes!

That’s normal purple on jb from what I’ve seen. Here’s a close of my purple jb, unknown on exact age of this shroom but she’s 2.5”+

I have been investing in JB<s lately! So far I have2 eclectus, candy crush, vdm I think it is and a dead pool. I read somewhere they take 3 years to have babies.

To be honest I was hoping to propagate them for resale. I lost aa **** ton of money last year on highend zoas and shrooms I am hoping to regain!

Is it true it takes 3 years? How many babies do they put out afterwards? i was also thinking of buying a purple monster but the babies I have seen barely have color so It scares me because how do I know thats actually what I am getting. They show so called pic of mom but could be something they pulled of the internet!
