Grape Ape Feminized

This great Grape Ape isn’t the Hanna Barbara cartoon you may remember from childhood. It is known to hit as hard like a purple primate would but in a much less painful way. The presence of strong lineage the likes of Mendocino Purps, Skunk and an original Afghani strain gives it a distinct grape coloration and smell when growing. Leafly reports that Grape Ape is propagated by Apothecary Genetics and Barney’s Farm, two legends in their own rights have combined forces to deliver a memorable experience that will leave you wanting more.

That popularity has also made it very easy to buy Grape Ape Fem strain seeds online.

All growing environments are on the table with Grape Ape, however, she is best grown in a greenhouse. It is one of the more difficult strains for novice growers to be successful with due to its care requirements. Being a near pure indica strain the plant loves to stretch its limbs laterally and grow large thick fan leaves on top. This is where experience can really help this purplish powerhouse thrive. Trimming of the top canopy of fan leaves is highly recommended to allow for light penetration to the lower reaches. Rarely reaching over four feet in height gives the plant the ability to blend in well to outdoor gardens. Aside from regular trimming and pruning, Grape Ape does require consistent watering and feeding in order to achieve the best possible yields of fresh flowers.

Rather fast growing marijuana seeds, Grape Ape has been known to begin flower production in a little as five weeks leading to harvest within the eight week range.

Harvests of five hundred grams are not unheard of and that firmly places home cultivators in a position to consistently replenish their supply of fresh smokable flowers.  

Growing well in multiple environments including indoor places Grape Ape Fem strain seeds in a category that not many strains get to enjoy. Indoor cultivators can enjoy as much as five hundred gram harvests with well cared for plants. When growing Grape Ape inside it is recommended to have at least a 600 watt high intensity sodium discharge light or a comparable thousand watt led lighting system.  As previously mentioned, trimming the top fan leaves is a smart move to allow as much light into the lower reaches of the stalk. Not only does this aid in air flow to control humidity but also allows for more space for flowers to grow. She is a pretty plant to grow and tends to flash a purplish tinge as harvest nears as the naturally occurring Anthocyanin emerges.  This trait can be enhanced by cooling the indoor grow space with a portable air conditioner when the light cycle is set to dark, try to keep the nighttime ambient temperature around sixty degrees Fahrenheit. Expect to harvest within nine weeks at most.

Whether growing in an outdoor garden or a greenhouse this is where the Grape Ape Fem strain truly lives up to its hype. A natural resistance to hungry pests like spider mites and disease resistance to the dreaded powdery mildew takes the pressure off of cultivators to defend their plants from an insect invasion and harvest robbing disease. Trimming requirements are the same as indoor, keep the top fan leaves knocked back to allow maximum light penetration to the lower reaches of the stalk. Grape Ape cannabis seeds are best sowed in late May to early June for an expected harvest in late September or early October. True to its parental lineage the plant grows to a maximum height of four feet. Regular trimming, watering and feeding will deliver yields as high as seven hundred grams. As autumn nears and the nighttime temperatures begin to cool, the Anthocyanin begins to turn the foliage purple. Buds are big and lined with purple accents and covered in thick crystal trichomes.
