About Grape Ape

Grape Ape is an indica variety. The effects people mention most are feeling sleepy, hungry and relaxed.

THC and potency

Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 193 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2023 came in at a median of 16.5% total THC (the middle half ranged from 15% to 19.1%). CBD is typically negligible (under 0.5%). That is in line with most flower on Canadian shelves. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.

Aroma, flavour and terpenes

In lab tests its dominant terpene is caryophyllene, followed by pinene and humulene. Caryophyllene is known for black pepper and warm spice, while pinene adds sharp, fresh pine. Total terpene content measured a median of 1.4%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as grape, berry and sweet.

Reported effects

Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with pain, stress and anxiety. The side effects mentioned most are dry mouth, dry eyes and dizziness. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
