413 Concord Grape
Grape Pie × Grape Stomper × Granddaddy Purple (speculated)
413 Concord Grape is a boutique indica-dominant hybrid celebrated for its prominent Concord grape aroma and flavor profile. This cultivar is recognized for its dense, purple-hued flowers and is sought after for its relaxing effects suitable for evening use.
Appearance
Flowers of 413 Concord Grape are typically medium-sized and pinecone-shaped, characterized by densely stacked calyxes and abundant trichome coverage. Under optimal conditions, the bracts display deep green to violet-purple hues, often accented by contrasting orange pistils that mature to a copper color. Anthocyanin expression is frequently enhanced by cooler temperatures during the late flowering stage, resulting in a gradient of lavender to deep purple coloration.
The trichome heads are generally large and dense, covering the bracts and sugar leaves. The cultivar tends to produce a sticky resin, and the buds are notably dense, requiring adequate airflow. Trim quality is often high, contributing to a visually appealing presentation.
Aroma & Flavor
True to its name, 413 Concord Grape offers a potent aroma reminiscent of grape jelly and candy upon grinding. Users often detect notes of wild berry and a subtle floral undertone, complemented by a peppery base that prevents the sweetness from becoming overwhelming. Warmer conditions may reveal deeper nuances of plum, blackcurrant, and hints of vanilla or pastry.
The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, delivering a concentrated Concord grape taste on the inhale, followed by sweet berry jam and floral notes. The exhale often carries a black pepper and mild balsamic edge. When vaporized at moderate temperatures, the fruit esters and floral notes are best preserved, while higher temperatures emphasize spice. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied and slightly coating, with a lingering grape jelly aftertaste.
Effects
413 Concord Grape is commonly described as providing balanced, relaxing effects with an indica-leaning finish, making it suitable for evening unwinding. While it promotes relaxation, it is generally not associated with complete incapacitation or severe couchlock.
Consumers often seek this strain for its nostalgic, candy-like notes combined with its calming influence. The effects are typically characterized by a sense of tranquility and ease, conducive to unwinding after a long day.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
While specific laboratory results for 413 Concord Grape can vary, it is understood to possess a cannabinoid profile typical of potent hybrids, with THC levels commonly reported in the range of 18% to 26%. CBD content is generally low, less than 1%.
The terpene profile is designed to support its distinctive grape and berry aromatics. Key terpenes often found include Myrcene and Ocimene, contributing to the fruity and lush notes, alongside Caryophyllene for a peppery backbone, and Linalool for floral undertones. Humulene may also be present.
Growing
413 Concord Grape is described as a compact to medium-sized hybrid plant with manageable growth and a tendency towards dense, terpene-rich flowers. Growers aim to maximize its bag appeal and terpene saturation. The plant's structure aligns with many grape-derived lines that prioritize visual and aromatic qualities.
Optimal conditions for color expression involve cooler night temperatures, particularly during the final two weeks of flowering, typically between 62–66°F (16.5–19°C). Proper airflow is important due to the bud density. The yield is considered average, with a focus on quality over sheer biomass.
Origins & Lineage
The name 413 Concord Grape references the 413 area code of western Massachusetts, suggesting regional origins and a connection to local craft cannabis cultivation. The cultivar's profile is designed to evoke the distinct flavor and aroma of Concord grapes, a variety associated with Vitis labrusca.
While a definitive public lineage has not been published, it is speculated to descend from grape-dominant strains like Grape Pie, Grape Stomper, or an updated Granddaddy Purple cross. Breeding efforts likely focused on enhancing resin production, potency, and achieving a clear, candy-like Concord grape character, possibly incorporating dessert cultivars to stabilize sweetness and maintain THC levels.
