Ready for liftoff? This week we’re orbiting around Planet of the Grapes by Ithaca Organics, a potent hybrid that delivers heavy flavor and full-bodied effects. With deep purple notes and 20% THC levels, this strain is not for the faint of heart, but for those seeking a rich, euphoric ride.

Genetics & Terpenes

Planet of the Grapes is the stellar cross of Grape Diamonds x Chem D-95, bred by Ethos Genetics. This cultivar brings together the fruity flair of Grape Diamonds and the gassy, chemical backbone of Chem D. The result? A terpene-rich strain dominated by myrcene, with support from limonene and caryophyllene, known for promoting relaxation, mood elevation, and a touch of the munchies.

Aroma & Flavor

Crack open a jar and you’ll be greeted with bold grape and berry aromas, layered with a sour citrus edge and a nutty, slightly earthy finish. The flavor is just as complex—sweet, juicy, and slightly funky, with lingering notes of chemical sharpness and chestnut on the exhale.

Effects & Experience

Expect an immediate lift in mood, followed by a relaxing body buzz that may leave you smiling, snacking, or sinking into the couch. Many consumers describe it as both euphoric and grounding, making it great for after-work sessions, social wind-downs, or creative flows. Due to its potency, it’s best suited for seasoned consumers or those ready to ride a deeper wave.

Perfect Pairings

  • A cozy night in with snacks and your favorite movie
  • A post-hike wind-down with mellow music
  • Unwinding after social events or long workdays
