Tropical Purple… some strains are just cut a little different from the rest and Gulupa is one of those strains. A exceptional Californian hybrid, leaning to the indica side, it is a vigorous plant displaying great versatility and resistance.
Strong and uplifting (20% THC) and an exceptional terpene profile.
Gulupa is ready for harvest between 60 and 65 days with an estimated yield of 500 grams per m² indoors or 700 grams per plant outdoors.
Gulupa is characterized by a darker green to even purplish color sweeping through the plant as it progresses through flowering - from the vivid intensity of the magenta and plum tones of leaves surrounding the bud sites to the purple highlights streaking the buds. Flame red pistils add a fiery flourish to the beautiful buds which look like freshly prepared delicacies; fat, juicy and packed with crystals.
Lineage
Gulupa is a Purple Kush x Gelato 33 cross. The Kush provides the vibrancy of the plant’s colors and also the minty earthiness which underlines the base flavor. From the Gelato side comes extra sweetness and citrus flavors, along with a euphoric sense of energy.
Aromas, Flavour and Effect
This is an extremely aromatic plant in the grow room. The aroma is an intense summer cocktail of citrus and tasty fruits with hints of strawberry and passion fruit.
In the taste department, Gulupa will tantalize terpene aficionados with its intricate flavor puzzle which is difficult to define. What is not in doubt is the intensity, flooding the mouth with full bodied flavor and lingering on the tongue. At the foundation there’s a strong hashy earthiness, overlaid with passion fruit freshness, citrus, berries and hints of spice and mint. Exclusive, original, exotic, Gulupa is a taste sensation that needs to be experienced.
Recreational: For an indica leaning plant, the effect is surprisingly energetic and lucid. It arrives almost instantly, with a pleasant and uplifting cerebral creep. It is very easy to work with, bringing a sense of contentment and creativity and allowing the flow of deep thoughts which will appeal to the inner philosopher. The body effect is an easy going sense of relaxation which is never overwhelming.
Medical: This plant displays characteristics which have been associated with pain relief. Relaxing without being too heavy, it will also appeal to those looking for a strain that can be used for ongoing relief through the day without being dragged into the couch.
Cultivation
Indoors: Gulupa is a medium sized plant. It displays vigorous growth, achieving medium heights in the grow room. It’s bushy in structure, and multiple bud sites proliferate from its many branches. These swell with heavy, chunky buds which will be a surprise to growers familiar with the typical (smaller) flower production traits of its parent plants. It is recommended to prune this plant after about 3 weeks of flowering and lollipop lower branches, leaving about 30 cm stem from the base.
Indoor Yield: 500g per m²
Outdoors: A great outdoor plant to grow, Gulupa can reach heights of 2 metres in Mediterranean zones where the sunshine will fuel its aromatic display and high production. It is also recommended for exotic lovers growing in northern regions, displaying excellent resistance qualities.
Outdoor Yield: 700g per plant
Suitable for growing outside between 50º n.L. and 50º s.L.
*As with all exotic strains, we recommend lollipopping to obtain a bigger yield and also reduce potential risk of hermaphroditism on the lower branches in case the plant experiences stress.
