one of my top 3 strains of all time. just picked up another fresh batch of gdp and i can’t wait to get these girls flowering. for those of you saying that purple color is only a result of temperature, “meangreenmartian” i have to disagree. exposing your plants to cold air is one way of coaxing the calyxs and leaves to possibly turn purple but does stress the plants and is not recommended. what most people don’t know is that purple coloring is a recessive trait found in many strains of cannabis, it’s in the genes and can therefor be bred for, isolated, and stabilized. i have grown gdp plants that were NEVER exposed to air colder than 73 degrees and they turned so purple they almost looked black and i have had some pheno’s that never showed any purp. for a real purple strain like gdp, it’s in the genes and anybody who has smoked the REAL gdp knows that it IS as good as it looks, probably better…

I’m back. I just wanted to add that this strain is totally unique. For those who have only seen pictures…The smell, taste, and high are completely out of the ordinary. A lot of people don’t particularly like it, because the high is not your typical potent, hard-hitting high. Its very cerebral for an indica and for me it is very ‘tingly’. The immediate effects are lighter and will take a few minutes to develop and its sort of a creeper. Still, I think its very potent, I don’t have to smoke more than any other potent strain. As for flavor and smell, it is sort of a sweet, musky, purple candy thing. It does not have a ’sharp’ or distinctly skunky smell, its a softer, warm and fruity smell that just smells like ‘purple’. I never get that choked-up, cross-eyed, kicked-in-the-forehead feeling immediately after a bonghit with this one, but the unique effects are still equally desirable to that opposite end of the spectrum, for me anyway, and it is in no way a soft smoke or lacking in potency. While the highs from most other strains blur together this one really stands out, and I’m a sativa lover!

It is definitely an indica, all the way around.

I have some nugs that look identical to the ones you have pictured – beautifully frosted purple nugs. Same crop even? A year ago, when you posted those pictures, I was getting the same thing.

Only its been sold to me as purple urkle, not grand daddy purple. Are these strains one in the same, or just very similar?

Thanks for the review. I purchased my GDP at Green Room in Cali they told me it was a Sativa. Anyone else get this as a Sativa?

This is the one I have now compare to the other reviews.

I’m also a fan. Grandaddy purple is often on the delivery service menu in NYC.

I got some Granddaddy Purple from Harborside in Oakland.

The Clerk told me for my inflammation and joint pain this was the hook-up.

He was spot on. It looks awesome, smells nice and it floats me off to sleep at the end of a hard day.

I prefer this to Kush, as I am mostly looking for pain relief, and not a stone. If that makes any sense.
