I'd been hearing about this strain for quite some time but hadn't ever tried it due to my not being a fan of Big Bud (I still haven't seen The Sopranos either). Anyway, when my favorite shop had it in, I thought it was a good time to be bold and it paid off! The flavor was distinctly grape and it quickly became my go to for a sleep aid and late evening pain relief.
Love this strain. Awesome flavour and sure does the trick for taking care of my pain and relaxing me enough to fall fast asleep. One of my favourites for sure!!
This strain is DEFINITELY a pure Indica. The high can sometimes seem to take a minute to kick in, but when it finally does.....dear god it hits you with some force. Novice smokers beware...take it easy with this one and don't get carried away otherwise you'll end up falling asleep for 12 hours straight. This has all of the perfect effects of a deep Indica; the heavy arms, the low eyes, the pain relief and major relaxation capabilities. My only con when it comes to GDP is the taste. But that being said, it isn't anything TERRIBLE. It just doesn't compare to some other flavorful Indicas. Anyone looking to combat insomnia, this is the stuff for you.
Great Strain! one of my all time favorites plus it is great for insomnia or stress reducer. Dominate Indica Strain and good taste and smooth smoke for a relaxing end to the night.
3 stars only because I usually have 4-5 different strains at any given time and by the time I get to it in the evening, I tend to reach for DSB for its potent indica effect. As for the GDP, it looks good, smokes well, but doesn't have quite the potency I need to manage my back spasms. Based on the quality of this bud and where it came from (TSCC), I'd gamble on the same strain from CBHS Vancouver, any day.

Love love love GDP. It's my favorite bedtime ritual, and consistently eliminates my fibromyalgia pain, restless legs, anxiety, nightmares, and insomnia. I can actually get a full, deep 8hrs of sleep. This is the only thing I have found that helps me wake up refreshed, bounce out of bed, and hit the ground running. I also appreciate not having a groggy hangover with GDP, like I get with traditional pharmaceuticals.
I don't know why, but ever since I first discovered the wonders of cannabis 25 years ago, I have always loved and been fascinated by purple marijuana, and this strain is no different. Wonderful sweet berry aroma and flavor profile. Heavy relaxation and my thoughts just drifted away. Really good evening meds.
