granddaddy purple strain

Granddaddy Purple, often shortened to GDP, is an indica-dominant hybrid created by crossing Purple Urkle with Big Bud. It is best known for dense purple buds, a sweet grape and berry aroma, and a heavy, calming body high that makes it a favorite for winding down at the end of the day. If you are shopping for an evening strain with a long track record, this one earns its reputation.

Materials and Specs

Granddaddy Purple plants grow to a medium height and produce chunky, resin-coated flowers, which is part of why the strain presses and extracts so well. THC content typically lands in the moderate-to-high range, so the potency feels substantial without being overwhelming for most experienced consumers. The buds are usually thick with trichomes and cure into a slightly sticky texture, and the purple coloring comes from anthocyanins that develop when plants see cooler temperatures late in flower.
