Leafly — granddaddy purple ↗How to read these relationships
Parent links describe a reported cross. Ancestry components may be several generations back. A phenotype selection comes from a named line rather than a new two-parent cross. Disputed links retain the uncertainty of their source.
Names in this catalog open a strain profile. Other names open the reference describing the relationship. The family view shows the links currently documented here, not every known descendant.
Cannabinoid profile
Leafly catalog summary values, not laboratory results for a specific sample. A displayed 0% is a rounded source value, not proof of absence. Unlisted cannabinoids remain unknown.

Similarity uses catalog reference chemistry, reported attributes and lineage. Missing data is excluded; this is not an effects prediction.
Granddaddy Purple, often shortened to GDP, is associated in Leafly's account with Ken Estes and 2003. Its pedigree is less settled than that familiar name suggests: the source presents both a Mendo Purps/Skunk/Afghan account and a Big Bud × Purple Urkle account. This profile keeps that disagreement visible. Grape, berry and violet are reported flavor descriptors, not evidence that either proposed family tree has been confirmed.
Disputed parentage ↗
Grape Ape is associated with Apothecary Genetics and Barney’s Farm. Its reported background includes Mendocino Purps, Skunk and Afghani, without a fully specified crossing sequence.
Ancestry documented ↗
Cheese has roots in a British Skunk 1 selection. Leafly also describes later Afghani contributions, so these links represent family history rather than one universal cross.
