Kens gdp has lots of stories behind it.. I think he claims he was gifted the cut without any sort of knowledge of genetics.. (will get a source later I am on my phone)
Ive heard scbb x purple urkle, which would be strong since salmon creek big bud was one of the better big buds out there. ( 8 or 9 on potency).
A few sites say oregon big bud x purple urkle, but its really hard to get the info straight... I remember when we were getting 550 oz of gdp and not even flinching, cuz it literally shat on everything in its vicinity... 2005 or 6ish if I remember.
most growers also report small dense nugs... Making big bud less likely of a parent in my humble opinion
_continue on for diatribe on breeders_
This is why I dislike mj breeders , they are rarely forthright with their information and strain names: theres only a few respectable outfits left and most breeders dont even test their f1s these days.. . They just ship em out...
Ken,for the most part is well respected and I tend to side with old schoolers, but even he has a checkered history with renaming strains ;(
good gdp will drop ur jaw, I know this much.. Purple bud labeled gdp is probably what most people have smoked due to drug dealer / grower tactics
If I ever find a gdp cut representative of that shit I got 6 or 7 years ago
