Not a whole lot of information is found on this strain, but:
Granddaddy Purple crossed with Mr. Nice. This strain captures the purple color of GDP and the smell and taste of Mr. Nice. A very powerful indica that has a high probability of fuzzy couch-lock.
So, I'll just give some pics and the Story behind how I obtained a cut.



Okay, now the story:

So anyone that's been following my Cardboard Flowering Box grows will know that I had a major mishap with a batch of clones and a clone that I had acquired called Purple Cindy.

Well, I went to the co-op today to replace my now dead Purple Cindy, and the proprietor there asked me, "Why the hell are you looking at the Purple Cindy clones?"

"Well," I replied, "I lost my Purple Cindy days after I got her home due to a power failure while I was camping."

So, he looked fairly cross with me, then his eyes softened, "I know how that goes," he said. "Come around here, I have something to show you."

I walked over to where he was and he pulled out 2 of these clones. I read the name and my eyes go wide with excitement. "Is that...?" I stammer.

"Yup! Mr. Nice crossed with GDP! One of my prized possessions in this building." He beamed.

"Wow, congratulations on that one! Hope you don't have the same crap happen to you on these 2!" I gushed

"One." he said, matter of factually. "I have only one."

I furrowed my brow in confusion, and looked at him and the clones quizzically, thinking that one of them is another strain. He kind of chuckled to himself, walked to the water fountain to grab a cup, squirts a little inside, and returns. I'm standing there dumbfounded trying to figure out what the hell that means.

I had just about wrapped my head round what he was getting at when he picked up one of the clones, works the root out of the container, winds them down into the cup, and snugs the rockwool plug into place. He then grins a sheepish grin and shoves the cup at my chest. "I can't 'give' it to you so you gotta donate something for it. Regular 10 bucks should do it."

I sputtered, tried to talk, jaw dropped open, then shut, then opened again. I was trying to talk through the surprise, but all I could get out was, "TH-uhhh, bu-uhhhh..."

He started laughing and said "After a setback like that, you need some good karma sent your way. Just think of it as an 'I'm sorry that happened to you.'"

I will skip the very embarrassing rest of the visit, but will show you the result of last weeks setback. A little bit of serendipity, and good returned from the universe. A very fortuitous turn of events, that has landed me the proud owner of a baby that I would have given my left nut for... Really, I would! Well, okay, not really, but, GAWD! Look at this thing!

hhehe Right Nutted, I might be, but I'll keep it. There is only one other clone of this strain right now, and he isn't giving it up. He told someone else that the other one wasn't for sale and that it was his for personal grow. The guy looked at me accusingly, and just asked for some purple mr nice out of a jar from the bud tender... It pays to get to know the growers around here, and when things go to shit, it's good to know there are people out there that can lend a hand. Other than here... you know what I mean...
 
re: Jandre2k3's Maternity Ward Purple Mr. Nice

Whoa...

There is little I can think of as sounding so nice as a mix of GDP... A beautiful, dense, lovely smelling bud... And (Mr.Nice)G13x Hash Plant... Probably one of the best, potent, indica dominates I've ever tried...

You lucky dog! Those are two seed stocks I'd really like to purchase and have in my personal seedbank! ;)
 
re: Jandre2k3's Maternity Ward Purple Mr. Nice

Holy carp is this another journal? With the 47 you got goin I can hardly check out any others. :cheesygrinsmiley:

LOL, I have a journal for each of my Mothers, so I can keep strain information, smoke reports and such, and the current Flowering journal. I could journal the the Hatchery, the Neonatal Unit, Pre-K, and K-8, as well, if you like. :cheesygrinsmiley:
 
re: Jandre2k3's Maternity Ward Purple Mr. Nice

Jandre - was wondering if you could take a look at my journal... my Bigbud is giving me mixed signals/^%$#^ weeping and curling up on the same branch/bud?
Thanks!
 
re: Jandre2k3's Maternity Ward Purple Mr. Nice

hows the plant going jandre, any new pics yet or not much changed, just trying to keep up with the 100's of journals you got, how do you find time to eat shit and sleep,

their is also an sos request on my journal, another grower is in trouble and needs some advice and help on his only plant, so if any of you can spare the time to look the sos request is either on the last page in my journal or the page before that, its a new grower and new journal so only 2 pages to read through, just trying to get a fellow grower some good advice,

hehe, tyvm. I'm always ready to help, so yeah, just send me a PM next time, and tell me who it is, or ask them to PM me directly. A link to the journal will help me find the first post of the problem. Just click on the number (top right of the post) of the first post detailing the problem, and copy/paste from the address bar.

Hey! Thanks for stopping by. My journals are a little confusing at first, have you figured out how they all tie together? All of my Maternity Ward, Flower Journals, and the main Cardboard Flower Box are all tied together. Wanna know how or have you got it?
 
re: Jandre2k3's Maternity Ward Purple Mr. Nice

You the man, J. I don't know how I missed all the other journals especially the one about the mothers. But duh, I didn't look at your sig line...Blame it on the mj. Gonna try to be around more often and will be starting another journal myself soon. I know I could use your advice once I get started.
