best high - grape ape vs purp urk and mendo purps ???

[nepalnt21]

let's imagine i'm colorblind, don't care about yield or potency, and let's say cannot smell at all. i've got no nose, i'm patrick star.

time for a purple- off:

what's the best between grape ape, purple urkle and mendocino purps (i have read that mendo purps is really all over the place with phenos, but anyway...)

in terms of the high?

i'll never rest until i find it, it was sold to us as grape ape (and it fit the bill, either that or urk for sure), prolly 15 years ago now and i still dream about the high.

it was super mellow and chill, but not couchlocky... and oh, the dreaminess and good vibes nature of the whole thing, really great.

actually, the head on it was not that unlike katsu bubba, maybe the closest i've found to this grape ape we had.

...

i felt detached and yet was able to function pretty well, and it wasn't super introspective... actually aside from the dreaminess/ slight trippiness, it wasn't even that strong of a head high, just perfect for daytime relaxation if i need a little bit of a dissociating head- high to go with it.

i don't care if it smells like fresh concord grapes, black licorice, piss, or cardboard, i just want that high again.

thanks for any leads.

Mannnnn....I would have to say for me personally the urkle takes the cake. Straight narcotic high. It's strong weed. Grape ape was classic indica feeling and I remember the mendo P feeling like I smoked cookies. Nothing to crazy about the high, it was the unique floral expression in the terpenes that made it what it was.

o damn, haha mendo p just got demoted to the bottom of the group... i know a lot of people like cookies, and that's fine, it's just that i really tend to hate the effect. at least of all the cookies and cookies crosses i've had.

man i wish csi humboldt did an urkle ape cross

he does urkle x ape and ape x granddaddy.
urkle x mendo
purple afghan x urkle
Nspecta says that the his "Purple Indica" strain is his favorite o f the group , i think

I've never had anything with Cookie genetics, what makes you hate its effects so much?

@kro-magnon

to me, it always does a very similar thing... i call it "instant burnout", basically i get the stupids right off the bat instead of two or three hours into the high.

if i want medicinal fx, i can add a medicinal strain (right now i have gorilla glue, gg4 iirc), if i want a decent head high i can add a strain that gets me high (actually, gorilla glue does that too haha), so cookies and cookies crosses aren't bad, per se in my opinion, just not nearly as good as things i smoke regularly.

and i know others respond VERY well to cookies, i'm sure it's top shelf weed for those with the right body/ brain chemistry.

i remember another person saying they got a feeling of depression from it, and i kinda feel that... a kind of depressed, burnout feeling with only a mild stone/ high.

there was another strain, amherst sour diesel, made me SUPER depressed, anxious even... and i LOVE sour diesels and anything chem... this specific one just made me feel SOOOO bad mentally, and come to find out, the budtender i talked to said another medical cannabis patient said the very same exact thing!!!! depression and anxiety central, from THAT exact strain!

so i have learned not to go "this strain will do x,y,z" and rather i like something like "i find that this strain does for me xyz"

We all react differently to the same cannabinoids profile because as you said we all have a different brain chemistry. I understand the feeling you describe when you smoke some Cookie, it's something I've already experienced and didn't enjoy neither, to me it's the strain Chronic from Serious Seeds who had this type of effects so I never liked smoking this strain, it was too brutal for my taste. But I know many people enjoyed smoking some Chronic flowers so it's not a bad strain in itself, I just don't like it.
