Granddaddy Purple Autoflower is an indica-dominant hybrid autoflowering version of the legendary Granddaddy Purple strain, first created by Ken Estes in California in 2003. This strain combines the genetics of Purple Urkle (Afghan x Skunk) and Big Bud Auto with ruderalis genetics to create an autoflowering variant. The strain features a genetic composition of approximately 75% indica, 20% sativa, and 5% ruderalis, inheriting the signature purple coloration and grape-berry aroma from its photoperiod parent. GDP Auto is renowned for its striking visual appeal, displaying deep purple hues contrasted by bright orange pistils and a generous coating of white crystal trichomes. The buds are dense and compact with a complex aroma profile featuring prominent notes of sweet grapes, berries, blueberry, and pine, undercut by herbal and earthy undertones. This strain has gained popularity for its manageable cultivation requirements, making it suitable for both novice and experienced growers, with a complete lifecycle of 10-12 weeks from seed to harvest.
