Granddaddy Purple reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Granddaddy Purple.
As a chronic pain patient/depression& anxiety. This is my favorite heavy indica strain out of all I’ve tried.
I get this in oil, a vape cart from District Cannabis found in the DC/Maryland area. It’s a masterpiece!!! In my top 2 strains ever. I can lay in bed and let thoughts pass through me. Meditation my man. I can use it to sleep. I can use it to just calm down. I can use it to be happy.
In my opinion, every med patient should have this in their cabinet.
I’m 55 and never tried marijuana before. I have fibromyalgia, so I went into the dispensary and spent 90 minutes with a budtender and came away with a headache and Grandaddy Purple, to help with pain and sleep.
The first 3 times I tried it, using a one-hitter, I was awkward and was scared to inhale. No effects. I did sleep well though.
The 4th time, I got confused about when to inhale (forgive me, this is so new to me), and gave a sharp, deep inhale. I coughed so much I almost threw up. The second time I lit, I inhaled so hard I actually swallowed the little burning ball at the end of the chillum. I was so mad I couldn’t get this right.
The next thing I know is I kept rewinding my tv show on my phone because I kept missing the scene. I watched 2 houseflies move slowly above my head. I started to feel odd pains in my body, but kept telling myself not to get paranoid. I talked to myself endlessly and giggled a lot. My dogs looked worried.
Although I stayed rooted to my spot on my bed, it was definitely more of a cerebral high. I couldn’t stop talking (to myself!). 3 hours later I started to come down and then still couldn’t fall asleep, which was the reason I got this strain.
I remember the smell of weed on people in high school and it stunk. This strain has a lovely scent, not skunky or pungent. This smoke is strong but is pleasant. I think I need to try a different method of delivery, as well as a different strain, if I just want to fall asleep. I’m thinking of trying a dry herb vaporizer, so the smoke isn’t as burning hot? That’s the only thing that really bothers me about the one-hitter. At least I finally know what being high is all about! As compared to getting drunk, weed is a happy high, while drunk is just sad. I would not ever mix alcohol with this though.
Perfect for insomniacs. I have PTSD and anxiety attacks are common. I get very manic and panicky at night and I usually smoke Obama for relief. On the nights that old faithful needs a boost to really calm me down and help me relax during an anxiety attack, GDP does the job. This stuff will knock you on your ass in the best way. Your gonna be couch locked, so you might as well go to bed after you smoke this. Would recommend for sure.
Granddaddy Purple is the best — second I’d say is Tahoe OG and Northern Lights a close third — strain for getting a restful night’s sleep. GDP relaxes me, in a-melting-my-anxiety-away sort of sensation. I become hyper away of my surroundings, in an insightful not terrifyingly paranoid way. My senses are sharper, but not in a flight-or-fight sort of panicky way. You cannot go wrong with hitting GDP — especially after a hot shower (moisturize afterwards) — and dimly lit, cooled rooms.
Try journaling once the high kicks in, the words just flow (coherently) onto the page (or into the device). This word-dump adds to your mind becoming freer and clearer after GDP grips (more like caresses) your brain.
Lastly, Consider Obama Kush as a early evening strain (as a chaser to GDP) right after dinner. Then in 2-3 hours, hit that GDP as a nightcap. Your body soothingly winds down for bed, almost as if it’s program by GDP to do so. 🥰
Cool
This shit slaps I got a Big Chief Cartridge of it and it taste just like the bud and hits hard as fuck every time I hit it even soft I be coughing like crazy but it’s all worth it 🍇🌤💨🧤
This is my #1 go to when I feel like absolute sht. I have different types/levels of pain, so the full body high is always a welcome feeling. It also helps my nausea and makes me hungry even during a gastroparesis flare... Just wish I could readily find it around me! :(
I’m a chronic pain patient diagnosed with panic disorder, bipolar, and generalized anxiety. This strain helps so much with my spinal and sciatica pain! I’ve cut my pain meds in half bc of this strain. The only other strain that helps nearly as much as GDP is 9lb Hammer. The smell: Straight up sweet with almost a berry like aroma. And taste: Delicious!! Very sweet, a little piney, and maybe a tad nutty as well. In my top 5 favorite strains for sure. Get this if you haven’t!!!
