I was thinking about picking up some clones of GDP for my next batch but have been hearing a lot of conflicting information so i am trying to clear it all up..

DO NOT REPLY if you have not gown the strain or had first hand knowledge of the grow.. i dont want any my friends uncles cousin says bs.. thanks in advance

now first of all i have heard people say that it flowers in 50 days, and others say it flowers in 70 days. i dont necessarily believe either one, but think it falls in the middle considering its heritage but was wondering what you guys have experienced.

second is the yield situation.. some say it is a notoriously low yielder like its purple urkle counterpart, while others say it is a good yielder and a fast flowerer. at the same time people say that its grows slow, and doesnt get big but the nugs are rock hard and weigh out a lot more...

now i know it is basically a big commercial strain out here (in cali) which leads me to believe that it flowers fast and yields pretty well, but at the same time its probably the best bet for anyone trying to get a decent yielding purple strain, which are few and far between...

so anyways could a few peeps here in cali who have actually grown the shit give me a heads up? i dont really care if its not the best yielder (like trainwreck) cuz its a phenominal smoke (for a purple) but i dont wanna get shafted and get half of what i would have gotten going with another medical strain...

thanks fellas

these pics r from veg..im a week into flowering but my gdp gives me no problems its suppose to be a picky plant thats not easy to grow and i read at a local club where i got my clone from that the flowering period is longer then most i hear its more like a 75-90 day flower and a big yielder..

people like it because it's purple and only because it's purple. what does that tell you? if it was good for anything else they'd be praising that, wouldn't they. like "wow, this GDP is hella stony", not "hella purple". see what i'm saying? if you get off on colors, go for it. :bigjoint:

COLOR DOES NOT GET YOU HIGH!!!!!!!!! :weed:
Its actually a very highly regarded medicinal strain in California. Plus its really not bad. ITs not the 21% THC with 1.7% CBD like a big hitter Arjan's haze is, but its still a fine smoke. There are better strains, but this is a great one. Heavy Indica 80-90% I think it was.

damn i have never heard of an indica that flowers for 90 days... must be an odd pheno mixed reviews on the flowering time and yield, due to there being so many different genetics around but i do know a lot of people love the smoke.. and fuck Arjan he is a genetics stealing beeatch lol

wooooooosaaaaah fdd....woooooooosssaaaaaaahhhhh... feel better? haha

yes purple is purple and color does not get you high but i will not agree that all purple strains are crap.. some purple strains are crap, and purple is hyped up waaaaay too much, however, its still good weed for the most part.

so can i get some more feedback from a couple other peeps who have grown this crap LOL

see, the puprle is making you all foggy. i NEVER said it wasn't stony, i said IT'S HYPED UP!!!!!!! there is nothing better about purple then there is about skunk #1. it's all good pot.

the rappers praise purple. listen to any rap song and tell em i'm wrong. snoop smokes the purps so so do you. :weed: :clap:

I can only speak for myself.. I DO NOT sell anything.. Especially not marijuana.. SO I could care less about what others think/want etc.. As I stated, I would love to see a "SOP" (sea of purple buds) one day.. It has NOTHING to do with "rap" or w/e.. I just think it wold be cool to see some purple buds. Thats ALL..

then grow some purple. there is no one purple better than the other. a good purple is a good purple. it's all the same. that's all i'm trying to say. :weed:

smells like a handful of potting soil and roses. to me, that stinks. :-P


i go to the "medical club". they have a menu on the wall. A being the best, then B being not quite as good, then C, D ........

they have 5 or 6 strains of each level. when i go in to buy meds and the top 8 are ALL purple, i'm fucking pissed. i did not want something purple. so i either have to get it anyways or go without or go down to C grade.

i saw clones at the club one day, PURPLE X PURPLE. wtf?!? :wall:



"the hype that surrounds purple is stupid"

how's that. :-P:-P:weed:

we need a strain guides

People have these questions all the time. I have a GPD cut too, it looks like the leaves are different and the structure form the other pics on here.

I have looked around a lot and so far found the best info in this thread from ffd.

i completely agree with that, but its something everyone has to experience to get over it LOL

and edux, that is racist.. but kinda funny lol

i think it goes back to what i originally said...

its not that purple is any better or worse, but since the majority of weed is green, purple and blue tints stick out and are as seen as more rare... rarity is usually consistent with higher quality in most peoples eyes especially considering herbs.

but the hype that goes along with it makes real connoisseurs pissed off because they know the truth about the purple industry

Im not being rascist.

Fdd, how can you say Purple Erkle is the same as GDP? I have had both and they are different, I might not be able to tell which is which under blind taste test, but for sure in plant structure and flower time, different too

yeah I know:

so how could it be exactily the same? If it were the same taste, wouldn't everyone just grow the big bud cross? and the GDP flowers 2 weeks sooner on adverage but maybe even sooner if someone lets their erkle go extra long.
