More About These Grape Ape Strain Seeds

Grape Ape is a mostly indica cultivar created by crossing Mendocino Purps, Skunk, and Afghani. It’s best known for a distinctly grapey aroma that comes through as sweet, dark fruit with a faint skunky edge, the kind of scent you notice right away when you open the container.

The effects are typically described as carefree and deeply relaxing, making Grape Ape a common pick for winding down at the end of the day. Many people reach for it when they’re trying to take the edge off stress and anxious feelings, and it’s also frequently mentioned in conversations around soothing physical discomfort like everyday aches and tension.

Visually, this strain tends to show off dense, compact buds framed by deep purple leaves that can darken as the plant reaches full maturity. In cultivation, it’s often associated with a 7 to 8 week flowering window.

Growing Tips for Grape Ape

These Grape Ape feminized seeds are highly sought after by novice growers because of how easy this strain is to cultivate. Grape Ape marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to the climate of California in the summer. Grape Ape cannabis seeds grow into pale green and orange plants with long leaves and potent buds.

If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need to hope for consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the perfect outdoor climate without having to put up with unexpected outdoor variables. These plants grow from short to medium and can reach around 2-6 feet tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of around 6 feet, these plants are easy to grow in several smaller grow setups.

The ideal temperature for these plants is around 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 40-60% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but lowering the humidity every week will help this plant grow. Growing indoors will ensure that the moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are consistent and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages.

Topping, Sea of Green (SOG), Screen of Green (ScrOG), and Low-stress training (LST) methods are the best training techniques for this particular strain of cannabis. If performed correctly and at the right time, these techniques will promote bud production and increase final yields. LST helps manipulate the plants by tying down the branches to increase the size and density of the buds while allowing them to grow almost naturally. The “Green” methods will help to reinforce the heaviest bud sites so the branches don’t bend or break. Topping will help keep the plants manageable by trimming the tops so the canopies don’t overgrow. The Grape Ape strain requires an 18-20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative growth stage. Changing the light cycle to a 12/12 cycle will induce the flowering stage of growth.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Grape Ape strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55-65 days.
• Yields: While Indoor yields are around 500 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 600 grams per plant. These yields are massive and should keep you in dank buds for a long time after harvest.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of October, depending on when the seeds were planted.

Grape Ape: Sweet Grape

The Grape Ape cannabis strain terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while myrcene and pinene are the secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – This is known as the spicy or peppery terpene and can be found in cloves, black pepper, and cannabis plants.
• Myrcene: Secondary Terpene – Myrcene is earthy and found almost exclusively in cannabis plants.
• Pinene: Pine Needles – Pinene can be found in conifer trees, pine needles, and cannabis plants and is known for its fresh and pine-like fragrance.
