What is the Grandaddy Purple S1 strain?
Grandaddy Purple S1 is a indica cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and earthy flavor profile.
Grandaddy Purple S1 is a feminized selfed version of the legendary Grandaddy Purple strain, created through the process of inducing a female plant to pollinate itself. In a breeding context, S1 stands for "first selfed generation". An S1 seed is a product of self-pollination, where a female cannabis plant is induced to produce pollen and then pollinate itself or its clone. Bred by Dr. Blaze, this indica-dominant hybrid (Purple Urkel x Big Bud) is famous for its high THC punch and seriously lush yields. The original Grandaddy Purple was popularized in 2003 by Ken Estes and represents one of cannabis culture's most iconic purple strains.

Its potent effects are clearly detectable in both mind and body, delivering a fusion of cerebral euphoria and physical relaxation. The S1 version maintains these cherished characteristics while offering the genetic consistency that comes from selfed breeding. The terpene-rich flower delivers a heady mix of grape and ripe berry, layered with classic floral sweetness and earthy undertones. Myrcene does the heavy lifting with its calming musk, caryophyllene sneaks in a peppery edge, and pinene rounds it all off with a fresh twist.
