Granddaddy Pluto

Granddaddy Pluto Strain Information

Granddaddy Pluto is a heavy, heavy Indica-dominant strain. As given in its name, the strain is a mix between the ever-popular Granddaddy Purple (GDP) and the mysterious Pluto Kush. GDP is a well-known strain for its signature dark purple hue, while Pluto Kush is known for its high THC levels. So, when you put the two together, you get a seriously potent Indica that’ll leave you feeling like you’re floating on a cloud or perhaps in space.

Mind you; this isn’t a strain for your chaotic Mondays or high-stakes job interview. No, this is a strain for when you want to relax and unwind after a long day or week. It’s the perfect strain for when you want to curl up on the couch with a good book or movie and just escape reality for a little while. It’s another thing that you won’t be finishing that book or movie, as Granddaddy Pluto will likely put you to sleep before you reach the end.

Aroma

Both parents, GDP and Pluto Kush, seem to be fighting for dominance when it comes to the strain’s aroma. You’ll definitely get hints of GDP’s sweet berry notes and Pluto Kush’s earthy, pungent aromas. But there’s also a citrusy note that ties the whole thing together.

Flavor

On the flavor front, Granddaddy Pluto tastes much like its aroma. It has a mix of citrusy, spice, pine, and berry notes with a prominent Kush-like flavor. The taste is also surprisingly smooth for such a potent strain.

Appearance

In all honesty, Granddaddy Pluto isn’t a marvel to look at. It’s not ugly by any means, but it won’t turn heads, either. The buds are dull green with hints of purple and are quite dense. But what’s striking about this strain is its trichome coverage. The buds are completely covered in tiny, white trichomes, indicating its potency.

Granddaddy Pluto Strain Effects

The onset of the effects is almost immediate with Granddaddy Pluto. You’ll feel a heavy head sensation followed by a sense of couch-lock. Your eyes may also start to feel heavy, and your body will feel relaxed. As mentioned before, this is not a strain for when you have things to do. The effects are very powerful and sedating.

In contrast, the initial rush is super euphoric. Really, you might even question the Indica-dominance of this strain, as it feels more like a sativa. But don’t be fooled; the couch lock will kick in before you know it. And soon after, you’ll be in for one of the deepest sleeps of your life with not a care in the world.

Given its potent Indica effects, it’s no surprise that Granddaddy Pluto is often used to treat various forms of anxiety and stress. The strain is particularly effective in treating insomnia and can be used as natural pain relief.
