It's known for melting away tense muscles and intensifying your fondness for whatever you can find in your kitchen.
Granddaddy Purple Autoflowering Origins
Grand Daddy Purple Autoflower gets its name (and look) from its Granddaddy purple parent. Its exquisite purple buds develop as the plant matures and later form into red-tinted crystals. The Hindu Kush aspects of Granddaddy Purple auto plants create a delightful smell and taste and a THC content ranging from 14% to 23% that may leave novice smokers locked to their couch.
This popular Grand Daddy kush strain is a cross of the pure indica strains Granddaddy Purple and Hindu Kush. Grown by Ken Estes in a San Francisco laboratory, Granddaddy Purple is a west coast classic. It is known for its profoundly relaxing high, mild buzz, and sweet grape taste.
Hindu Kush takes its name from its origin, a 500-mile mountain range between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Its subtle but sweet earthy aroma and sedative qualities make it a favorite for anyone looking for a relaxing high after a long day. The combination of these popular parent strains makes for the perfect Grand Daddy kush strain.
What Are Grand Daddy Purple Autoflowers
Prior to the 80s, growers had two options-- Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa. Starting in the spring, they transition from their vegetative stage to their flowering stage as the days grow shorter in the fall. Indoor growers have learned to imitate this growth cycle with light manipulation, but, like outdoor growers, they're limited to a slow growth cycle and single annual harvest.
The discovery of a third species, Cannabis ruderalis, brought new options. Discovered in Siberia in the early 80s, this new substrain fascinated Amsterdam breeders. It could automatically flower after just a few weeks. They went to work, crossing it with the existing indica and sativa strains to create a new autoflower type.
Of course, more options mean more fun. These days many popular strains, such as this Grand Daddy Purple auto strain, are available as autoflower seeds.
Growing Grand Daddy Purple Autoflowering Seeds
Perfect for new growers, those growing in a small space, or those who prefer more than one harvest each year, the Grand Daddy Purp grow cycle is very accommodating. They don't have special light requirements to bloom, are ready to harvest in 10 to 14 weeks.
As is the nature of all autoflowering strains, Auto GDP can flower on its own, not requiring the sophisticated lighting systems common to other indoor growing plants. Likewise, Auto GDP seeds yield compact-size plants - they can grow to a meter tall in the appropriate environment. Their small size makes them ideal for indoor growers, and they're ready in just 10 to 14 weeks.
These are feminized seeds. Female plants, contrary to male plants, are the ones that actually produce weed. All of our autoflowering seeds are feminized!
