Indica-Dominant Hybrid
Grape Ape
Grape Ape is a classic, award-winning indica-dominant hybrid (90% indica / 10% sativa) created by Apothecary Genetics and associated with Barney's Farm. It is a cross of Mendocino Purps, Skunk #1, and an Afghani landrace, developed by founder Bret Bogue after 2004. The strain is instantly recognizable for its dense, deep-purple buds, candy-like grape aroma, and profoundly heavy body effects. It won first place at two consecutive Green Cups (2005–2006) and a High Times Medical Cannabis Cup in 2011. Grape Ape is a go-to nighttime strain prized for deep relaxation, stress relief, and pain management, often producing strong couch-lock and sedation.
