Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide
Indica 100%
Indica, sativa and hybrid are a retail shopping convention — not a reliable guide to genetics or effects. When researchers analysed 89,923 commercial samples across six states, these labels did not predict a plant’s terpene or cannabinoid profile, and a genome-wide study found sativa- and indica-labelled plants to be genetically indistinct (PLOS ONE 2022; Nature Plants 2021). The labels are so fluid that AK-47, a hybrid, won “Best Sativa” at the 1999 Cannabis Cup and “Best Indica” four years later. For an accurate, genetics-true picture, see the chemotype above.

About Granddaddy Purple Ultraviolet
Genetics: Granddaddy Purple F6 x Frostberry F4 Ultraviolet Male Variety: 100% Indica Avg. Flowering Time: 8 Weeks (Mid-late Sept outdoors) Yield: Medium to Heavy Potency: High GDP is the Godfather of purple indicas, but if you prefer to grow your cannabis outdoors in the open elements, you pretty much need to be south of the 45th parallel in order to get in to finish before the weather turns against you. What is a shame is that GDP exhibits some of its finest qualities when grown in soil under natural sunlight, and then ripened off with cool evening temperatures. Outdoors in intense sunlight, GDP’s notoriously slow vegetative growth becomes a non-issue. And when the day/night temperature differential increases in the fall while the flowers are maturing, the cold significantly enhances colour, flavour, and resin production. This is fantastic if you’re growing in Northern California or Southern Oregon, but any further north and you lose that sweet spot that Granddaddy Purple thrives in. The solution to this conundrum came in the form of a truly exotic male plant that emerged from our super early Frostberry line that we coined “Ultraviolet”. So named due to its gorgeous purple pollen
