I’ve been going to the dispensary since medical cannabis became legal in MD and I was able to get some relief of chronic pain and it’s not opioids! This is one of my top 5 strains for pain management. In smaller quantities it really relaxes me and reduces the pain in my neck and spine all the way through to my lower back. If I take at least four draws from a vape cartridge I can sit and relax and even take a nap. The main thing is that the pain is reduced and that’s why I take it. Even pain that’s becoming constant and loud (6-7) where I used to take 2 pain pills to get relief, is so much less, that I can enjoy my day better.
One word of caution is that this strain has a high THC and it’s potent, with over 2% myrcene, so it’s powerful,but it may not for people who are newly using cannabis for pain. Don’t make complicated decisions after you take GDP.
If you want a strain that will numb you and put you to sleep, GDP is your boy. Numbing effects and sex didn’t work very well for us (men, you know what I mean). Now, depending on what you’re into, that numbing might be an asset. But for us it was disappointing. The only thing that saved the strain when it comes to sex was that it turned out to pair well with some hybrids we had that were a little too sativa dominant when it came to anxiety and difficulty focusing. When paired with GDP, these strains improved greatly. GDP took just enough of the edge off to make them more effective for sex.
We are 50-somethings who vape and have sex pretty much daily. All our reviews focus on our experiences mixing cannabis and sex. We only rate after using an oz so the reviews give a well-rounded impression that captures a strain’s potential, downsides, and typical effects.
This was a nice smoke. The buds smelled nice in the jar and had a sort of smokey berry smell right out of the grinder. The smoke was flavorful and thick, but very gentle. I don't like coughing because it aggravates my Fibromyalgia symptoms, so the smoothness was a huge plus. I did not have major couch lock, but did want to stay put. I was mentally clear with a mild euphoric tingle to both brain and body. This seems to be a good afternoon smoke for me. It takes care of pain and anxiety and increases focus. It gave me a long slow burning energy. I wasn't hyper, I just suddenly had the will to keep plodding along at a dreaded mental and physical task.
One of the OG strains for relaxing and getting ready to melt into the couch.
Highly recommended, one of the big time strains.
My all time go to for sleep. I struggle with insomnia and restless legs. This helps both of those. I can sleep straight through the night! 10/10 highly recommended

I love it !!!!!! Big beautiful nugs with orange hairs and very deep purple leaves covered, and I mean covered in white frosting, like morning dew frozen on the lawn on a winter day.
The smell and taste is very sweet like sugary, candy berries. And musty like an attic. But also like that attic the strain holds a treasure like an old forgotten book you found. Opening that book in the attic in a window seat, while the sun pours in making the dust swirling about twinkle and seem magical like faires!
You feel a calm settle about you as the hecticness of the morning and your own mental craziness/anxiety fall off and away. You can breath and relax without OCD kicking in. And you took one bowl hit 😂
This is a pretty strong strain. Very strong indica. Calm, clear head, with a very heavy body high. This is pretty mellow. Definitely a creeper strain. Will first slow down your thoughts, then massage your muscles. You wont have energy to think or move. This is a great strain pain, stress and appetite. Crazy munchies with this strain. I just want to sit in a couch and eat all day. A bit of euphoria. Happy. A bit of paranoia, but not a deal breaker. This is a great medicinal strain.
I have not smoked any WEED in months. I bought a gram of G.P. and smoked like 5 hits off an ol' brass pipe I've had for years. I'm sitting in front of my computer typing this and feeling very much the WAY I want to feel. I'm cutting back on 100oz. of beer a day of 8% Lager Beer. I've cut it back 50% and feel more energized and I have more get up and go.. This weed is the old-school I remember then of the fresh Vermont Afghainy weed... I was never really worried about THC. strength.. I think anything above 15% THC. is just fine. It's the other qualities of the weed that counts... Yes I'm ready to play some loud music on my HIGH WATT sound system.. Cheers!
