Granddaddy Purple reviews

This is a very good example of a normal marijuana. I don't so much feel high as I feel too comfortable to get up to smoke more. I am feeling very productive and energized after smoking.

I often seek out strains that will uplift me, relieve me of anxiety and/or depression, and give me time to relax, smile, and have a laugh with my wife. I've had strains in the past impact me in negative ways but this one took the cake. I bought it because it was recommended by many sites as a great reliever of anxiety and depression--but instead, it GAVE me those things. I didn't even smoke a whole joint, my wife and I shared, and I was noticeably blazed fairly quickly. That feeling wouldn't traditionally be an unwelcome feeling but what came with it was what I could only describe as debilitating and unpleasant. I began getting paranoid about my physical body; heart racing, wondering whether I was remembering to breathe, feeling nauseous. Then I got paranoid about my life; all I could think about was pain and death. I struggle with bouts of anxiety and depression but I have NEVER been a suicidal person... this high made me so paranoid about how painful and awful life was that all I could think about was how death would be a gift. I then started questioning my faith and my very existence in this world... After being uncomfortably high for quite some time, I slept it off. Unfortunately, the damage didn't end when the high ended. I am not kidding, this one high triggered the worst depressive episode of my life. I didn't consume cannabis for quite some time after this experience bc of how awful it was, but the thoughts I had while high from this strain stuck with me for MONTHS. I had what I can only call an existential crisis. I questioned my faith, my existence, my self-worth, I went through a period of total uncharacteristic apathy where I didn't care about anything at all and even stopped doing the things I loved and lied in bed for most of the day. I had been having a bit of a rough time before, but after smoking this strain that ONE time, the thoughts it triggered left me in shambles. If anyone reading this is concerned, I'm fine! The last several months I've managed to begin crawling out of this depressive episode and I'm returning to being myself again! I've occasionally started consuming cannabis in small quantities again but am doing so VERY carefully. I urge anyone who is struggling with mental health issues to listen seek professional guidance and/or at least tell a loved one how you are feeling. If you use cannabis as a medicinal way to cope, do it with caution and pay attention to your mind and body and take notes on how certain strains, terpenes, etc interact with you. And if you're reading this as you are currently struggling, then please remember, you are loved, you are beautiful, you are worthy, and I believe in you! We need you, I'm so glad you're still here with us. Much love <3

One of my favorite night time strains for several reasons. I use a Cresco liquid live resin cartridge and right from the start you treated with a grape, berry and mild earthy taste. The initial high is a calming euphoria - plenty of smiles, contentment, giggles on the cerebral front. Physical relaxation coincides nicely - followed by restful sleep. I suffer from insomnia and hip / lower back pain. I’m working through releasing tension in flexors / iliopsoas and this strain really helps to complement the physical therapy, stretching, massage, etc.

This strain is nice, gradually you’ll start to feel it in your legs. Then around your eyes, but feeling complete relaxation and euphoric. Immediately I want to eat something and my stomach is really telling me. At this point you feel pretty tired. I feel pretty happy, but I feel glued to my bed. Feels good under the covers all warm. Nice body high and behind the eyes high. It’s the next day, I fell asleep writing the review. Great strain!

First of all I have to say that I got this from fluent dispensary and they are trying to get away from the stigma of cannabis being related to a bunch of Stoners so they've renamed their products. At Fluent, this is called Polaris. This was confusing as hell for a newbie when I first started out and it took me months to figure out by Polaris and Granddaddy Purple where the same thing! Regardless, it was recommended to me to use this to help me sleep since I have insomnia. The first week I used this, and I used the tincture that you put under your tongue, it worked like a charm! I slept so good! Better than I have in years! But then it didn't necessarily stop working, it just didn't work as well. I find it hard to believe that I'd built up a tolerance in a week but again, I'm pretty much a newbie so that could be the case. The first week or so I used it, I got about five uninterrupted hours of sleep each night, which in and of itself is a miracle! Since I haven't slept that many hours in a row since I was probably a toddler and I'm 56 years old now. After the first week or so, I was lucky to get 3, maybe four hours of uninterrupted sleep. I still consider that a good thing since my normal sleep pattern is about 2 hours of sleep and 2 hours awake. As far as the high goes, there really isn't one for me. It's probably because I take the drops before I go to sleep. I noticed no hangover whatsoever in the morning nor do I feel high in the morning. I'll tell you an interesting side note and that is I have very bad arthritis in my fingers and hands and lately I've been experiencing tingling on the tips of my fingers on both hands. I had a very expensive cream from fluent dispensary, $100 for 2 oz! I had run out of that cream (which actually worked!) but there was no way in hell I was going to spend $100 on another 2 ounce jar of cream so I decided to use this tincture on my hands. I filled the dropper to 0.50 dropped it on my hands, rubbed together for about a minute or so and then added some lotion to kind of soak up the oil from the tincture. Holy cow! Works like a charm! It worked actually better than the cream from Flunt dispensary. (I'm not sure if we're supposed to be mentioning other dispensary names so I may get bleeped or deleted but I think that's kind of an important thing to know). Bottom line, as a tincture for relaxation and or sleep I think it's wonderful! I think it doubles really well also as and alternative to hand cream to help with arthritis and or swelling! See ya.. I have been told this a 75% Indica. just saying..

This is migraine MAGIC for me. Really, just magic all around. I’ve had nasty headaches my entire life and only found relief with a migraine med that’s now off the market for causing birth defects (wah wah wah). I tried this strain out of desperation one night and my pain disappeared, leaving only the head pressure behind. It’s now an integral part of my routine, because it’s also great for PMS related aches, pains, and headaches. It also helps with my sporadic anxiety attacks and subsequent insomnia. It’s truly medicine!

It’s alright I guess, I got mine from Abundant Organics In Az Phx. You know it’s just something to smoke not to get high. I been smoking for 20 + years might be why it don’t hit hard. This is will get me half way to where I wanna go but that’s alright. Who knows it might get YOU high :)

This is an insanely feel good Indica. Just vibing out to music right now so heavy. It’s wonderful that smoking a bit of this is able to put me in this calm and sedated body and head space without making me feel like I need to go to sleep right away. It would be great for a calm and chill evening listening to music, watching movies, getting in the hottub and just enjoying life. The high lulls you into the true indica feeling of sweet peace. As a fairly new smoker this one did kick my ass in the onset though, but still an enjoyable trip to true mind-numbing bliss before a good sleep.
