γ STRAIN REVIEW γ
SEE/SMELL/SMOKE | 9.2/10
There is no need to label these jars, because Ken's award winning Granddaddy Purple speaks for itself once again. The smell has a certain weight to it that lets you know its about to lock you to the couch. The deep purple on the leaves and buds compliment the layer of overcrowded Tricomes. This is one of the best strains out there if you are going for the 'bag appeal'. The fruity taste and smell are quite pungent and is very distinctive when compared to other buds from its lineage. With a very harsh smell you will be surprised at how smooth this strain takes to being inhaled. All smoke tests are done through a Bong & bowl.
HIGH | 9.5/10
One of the most potent highs I'v experienced in a long time. This nighttime strain is perfect for those fighting against insomnia or a pain related illness.
With fast hitting body euphoria and a severe couch-lock feel that is unparalleled be sure to take care of your obligations before smoking this one! This strain is not to be used as a Daily smoker unless dealing with chronic pain or something of the sort, because mentally it dulls you very significantly.

γ GROW REVIEW γ
BUDS/YIELD | 8/10
In terms of Yield this cycle it was above final expectations, but below what was expected from germination. This was due to many factors. Some of those factors are a decrease in plant count and a mutated plant. I am extremely pleased with the bud quality of these genetics and the yield was quite acceptable.
GROWTH | 8/10
The growth of this Ken Estes GDP was explosive and in bursts. It was clear that aeration around bud sites and roots played a primary factor this in grow. The smell came very early in the growth while the purple phenotypes didn't display until late
ROOTS | 7.5/10
The roots reacted a lot with the environment at every step. They really enjoy temperatures to stay steady without much difference between reservoir swaps. Without the constant use of Hydroguard root rot was developed on a single plant and a slow turnaround rate impacted her final yield. Overall the roots did fine in a DWC environment, however constant use of Hydrogaurd is recommended.
