Sitting here puffing a nice fattie of the homeboy, “Abe’s” , most recent labors, a nice plump flower of “Blue Dream”. So it only makes sense that me…puffing on that… while I was fanning around, in a 5 gallon bucket, full of HeadBand Kush, and thinking about Grand Daddy Purps… Hoo Raw, Cali – forny – I – aaaa
Seriously though, I’m thinking about, whoa.. wait up…. before I 4get….. check out this furred out, afro-ed, HeadBand Kush. In Growers talk, “it had a high leaf to calyx ratio”.
Its ugly as heck and a pain to trim. He’s losing a lot to get it presentable.
Trimming that Kush, is more a shaping type thing, you trimmers will know what I’m talking ……Oh and the stink on that HeadBand…….all the way to the roach… but anyway… back to the Grand-Daddy…
Some of the homeboy “Abe’s”, Grand-Daddy Purps flowers were PURPLE. you know…. like damn near “Black & Blue” using the old boxing term… check them out
I got to wondering does it really make a difference…Uno the Purple color and all. “Does the purple color really make a difference.”
So sticky and colorful… were they all the way purple for a reason, or what..
So I decided to find out. Now this is not a very scientific type experiment, just some old fools opinion…
The all purple flowers were lighter in weight compared to the less colored ones of equal size. They also were more “Larfy” (less dense) than the less colored purple buds from the sack. I have two (02) categories of bouquet (smell), “bag and burned”. The flowers can be stinky, as all get-out, in the bag, but when smoked… very little of that stink can be had. If you can find the strain, that has both those charactistics going for it, than you got a winner…. in my opinion. It’s something I look for in a strain…. Anyway back to the purple.
The GDP bouquet is not as intense as the ”Dream” or “Kush”, Oh… it’s there…. just kinda like a weak “unwrapping a stick of juicy fruit gum” smell coming out the bag. After twisting one up, It held up for 3 or 4 hits off the joint. Both samples were the same type smoke, being a nice smooth textured, heavy weighted type.
So to answer my question of , “Does the purple color really make a difference.”
I thought so…….
I will say that after numerous days of smoking the GDP… that the all purple flowers did have a better and stronger bouquet, both in "bag and burned”, samples, I thought, that the all purple flowers smoked better, than the mixed colored GDP. but paid for it with very loose flowers, that became brittle after being out the bag for any amount of time.
Now this was picking average samples out of…. oh… say… 2 to 3 lbs. of “standard market” flowers. The longest being …….maybe 4 inches, and not many of those… average size in the bucket, I was fanning through, was oh……… say… 1 1/2..to… 2 1/2 inches.. a nice average “#3 firm” (on a 1 to 5 scale) in density, they weren’t rock hard. Still a very nice product.
Specially when you bring in the medicinal factor. Which both samples measured the same. Each had a 3 to 5 minute creep. Wasn’t to “top heavy”, so for those of you that don’t like that spacey “d-9”, you’d be happy with a little spot of this…. it sits somewhere in the middle on the scale, as It didn’t have much “Couch Lock” either. Well balanced, would describe it..
A very pleasant experience. Recommended at 3k a pound, it’s not priced to way way out there.
