Grand Daddy Purple

Granddaddy Purple (aka Grand Daddy Purps) is one of the most popular indica strains on the west coast and is perhaps the most well known 'purple' cannabis strain in the US.

Created back in 2003 by Ken Estes in the San Francisco Bay Area, Ken and his team sought out to create the ultimate indica hybrid by merging two strains with fantastic genetics - Purple Urkle and Big Bud. The product of these two, Granddaddy Purple, is a spitting image of it's parents' two best qualities - the deep and dark purple hue from Purple Urkle and the overgrown, dense buds of Big Bud. The dark purple buds blend well with the bright orange hairs and frosted white trichomes that generously cover the bud making it an extremely photogenic strain.

From San Francisco down to Los Angeles, Granddaddy Purple is one of the most sought after Indica strains due to it's Hollywood looks and classic Indica effects. Despite this popularity, however, many growers and those working in the dispensary world have claimed that Grand Daddy Purps is almost identical to another famous purple strain - Grape Ape.

Effects

Perfect for nighttime use, Grand Daddy Purple hits both the body and mind initially but quickly fades into a smooth body buzz like most heavy indicas do. It brings on the classic indica couch-lock feeling and can even promote feelings of numbness in the body. It's immensely relaxing and perfect for ending the day.

For medical cannabis patients, Granddaddy Purps is ideal for pain management. It can also reported to be effective at treating insomnia , depression and anxiety. Novice users beware though, this strain can pack a powerful punch. We'd recommend starting with a hit or two and waiting a few minutes before opting to consume more.
