Grape Ape

Grape Ape is a mostly indica strain tied to Mendocino Purps, Skunk and Afghani lines, with seeds propagated by Apothecary Genetics and Barney’s Farm. Our record has no THC figure; outside sources place it near 18%. Myrcene leads the panel at 0.96%, followed by pinene at 0.35%, caryophyllene at 0.3% and limonene at 0.11%.

That much myrcene fits the sedative reputation, and flavor tags are fruity and sweet. Outside reviewers score grape far above every other note, which makes the name accurate. Effect tags show happy, sleepy and calm, with outside reviewers ranking sleepy first, then relaxed, hungry and tingly.

Side effects on file are dry eyes, nervousness and dry mouth, and outside reviewers add mild dizziness. Growers describe dense, compact buds wrapped in deep purple leaves and a seven to eight week flowering time. Because the effect list is so strongly oriented toward rest, it is best saved for the end of the day.

A small dose is usually enough, and it pairs well with a quiet evening and a snack.
