Grandaddy Meigs

Grandaddy Meigs is an extremely rare cannabis strain developed by Copa Genetics, a Maine-based breeding operation with over 30 years of selective cannabis breeding experience. This strain represents a complex hybrid featuring genetics from the legendary Meigs Gold (a cornerstone Ohio landrace strain from Meigs County), combined with Granddaddy Purple (GDP) and Ancient OG lineage. The strain's genetics are documented as ((Meigs x Landrace) x GDP)) x AOG F2 PSM, indicating a multi-generational breeding project that incorporates both classic American landrace genetics and modern hybrid vigor.

Meigs Gold, one of the foundational genetics in this strain, has legendary status in cannabis culture and was reportedly grown in the cornfields and woods of Ohio from the 1970s-1980s. Historical accounts suggest Meigs Gold was a cross between Acapulco Gold and Skunk #2, creating a highly potent strain with a reputation that reached legendary status among cannabis connoisseurs. The inclusion of Granddaddy Purple genetics brings the famous grape and berry flavor profiles, along with heavy indica effects, while the Ancient OG F2 component (itself a cross of Iranian Landrace x Snow Lotus) adds additional complexity and potency to the genetic profile.
