What is the Punch Drunk Ape strain?
Punch Drunk Ape is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 30.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and blueberry and chocolate flavor profile.
Punch Drunk Ape is a feminized hybrid cannabis strain developed by Elev8 Seeds, created through crossing two elite clone-only cuts: Gorilla Glue #4 and Purple Punch. This American hybrid combines the best characteristics of both parent strains, inheriting the potent resin production and gassy terpenes from Gorilla Glue #4 with the beautiful purple coloration and sweet grape flavors from Purple Punch. The strain typically expresses purple hues in the flowers, which create a striking contrast against the thick layer of white trichomes inherited from both parents. Purple Punch, one parent strain, is itself a cross between Larry OG and Granddaddy Purple, bringing classic California genetics into the lineage.
Punch Drunk Ape is characterized by its robust growth structure and high resin production, making it particularly suitable for extraction purposes. The plants develop dense, resinous flowers with normal to slightly below-average stretch during flowering. Growers should note that this strain carries genetics from Gorilla Glue #4, which originally descended from hermaphrodite-prone Chem genetics, requiring careful monitoring during the flowering period. The strain is known for producing very high yields both indoors and outdoors, with indoor plants reaching 70-100cm in height and outdoor plants growing into bushes up to 170cm tall.
