UsualS - Your plant looks dope but it looks like GDP to me my friend. I have grown most of the Cali purples cuts and your is dead on for the GDP cut I have. Looks like the Royal IMHO. Whatever it is it is pretty and obviously grown well. Peace!
usual suspect that grape ape looks dope, you know where in cali they keep this regularly or do I gotta know the right peeps?
I just read this whole thread and I am surprised that no one mentioned Soma's Lavender!
Back in 2002, I was gifted a Lavender plant. The guy that gave it to me relayed this info during a long smoking session:
Lavender is the true parent to all the purples being discussed. Someone here in Mendo took Soma's Lavender and crossed it with a special PHENOMINAL skunk#1.
Purple Urkle
Grape Ape
Mendo Purps
Grandaddy Purple
Purple Cream....
are all just phenotypes of the original Lav x Sk1 cross.

Looks great...how much weight are you pulling off those ladies?
this is kinda how the story go's as i hurd it.{from 04 raided farm worker T2} except KK developed & passed to EL. maybe a duo?It's a true California strain developed by Eddy Lepp. Grape Ape is the original and Purple Urkle is a pheno of the Grape Ape. Ken Estes crossed grape Ape with Salmon Creek Big Bud and developed Gran Daddy Purple. They are all closely related 'cousins' and run true to their indica roots barely reaching 3 feet tall in most cases. Stretch is minimal and all are characterized by a fine grape taste. Growth is slow in veg and although the clones are available they are always in limited supply. GDP has the potential to yield the highest but all require an extended veg time.
none of the GA i see on here is even close to the GA that routinly going aroun socal.
most look like kush or dont even have purple on them,
that last one by USUALSUSPECT is spectacular but doesnt look anything like the pounds of grape ape ive seen, usualy hybrid looking.
---too bad you are a tool...instead of saying the things you said about us cali growers...you probably shouldve just made a friend in cali...woulda been easier. but if your dumb enough to think what you think bout us out here im sure your not bright enough to have thought about that. go punch yerself in the nuts....subIncredible usual suspect!
They look straight out of the cannabible 3.
Does anyone know any reputable online retailer that stocks Apothecary's Grandaddy Grape Ape? I havent found a single retailer that carries Apothecary. Also is this the same strain as the grape ape just shortend? Because the name in BBB3 states gandaddy grape ape. Thnx
