Gorilla Glue strain, also called Gorilla Glue #4 or GG4, was created by mistake of the breeder. Joesy Whales threw out a batch of seeds at first because it wasn't quite the result he wanted. However, this hybrid is a cross between many buds, including Sour Diesel, Sour Dubb, Chem's Sister, and Chocolate Diesel. This marijuana also won different Cannabis Cup awards in Los Angeles, Michigan, Colorado and even World Cannabis Cup in 2015. The ratio of Indica to Sativa is 60/40.
after one season and one harvest I see why this beuaty won a bunch of awards.

Strain details
Gorilla Glue Strain Cannabinoids
| THC | Tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, is a major cannabis chemical compound. It is a psychoactive element that stimulates dopamine release and induces euphoria or happiness. THC-rich strains may be helpful with such conditions as lack of appetite, chronic pains , etc. It is considered to be the primary active marijuana component. | 23.25 - 26% |
| CBD | Cannabidiol, or CBD, is a major compound in cannabis, which is non-psychoactive. It is also proved to counteract the side effects of the second major component THC. CBD is widely used for medicinal purposes in rubs, oils and so on. It is helpful in muscle pain cases, may treat arthritis and migraines. Even Greeks used it against pain, while Queen Victoria applied it to get rid of menstrual cramps. | 0.46 - 0.6% |
| CBC | Cannabichromene, or CBC, is a minor cannabinoid, meaning that its quantity in cannabis is quite little. Though it has the same origin as CBD and THC, it is different in functions. Without any psychoactive effects, it is an efficient cannabis compound in combating acne and depression. CBC produces analgesic, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. | 0.12 - 1.2% |
| CBG | Cannabigerol, or CBG, is one of the minor cannabis compounds in adult plants. On the other hand, young ones contain a lot of this antibacterial and anti-inflammatory component. During the growth, CBG is converted into different cannabinoids, mostly THC and CBD. The compound itself increases appetite and decreases eye pressure. | 0.49 - 1.19% |
| CBN | Cannabinol, or CBN, is a trace element in cannabis that is considered to be mildly psychoactive. It appears from oxidation THC, exposed to light and heat. CBN is mostly contained in old cannabis and in traditional hashish. It is effective against insomnia, bacterial infections and appetite loss. | 0.31 - 0.21% |
| THCV | Tetrahydrocannabivarin, or THC-V, is a compound contained in cannabis in trace amounts. Even though it is close to THC molecularly, it is different in effects. This compound may be psychoactive only in large amounts. THC-V reduces blood sugar, controls appetite, stimulates bone growth, etc. African Sativa strains are the richest in THC-V. | 0.38 - 1.31% |
Gorilla Glue Terpene Profile
| Pinene | Pinene is one of the most widespread terpenes in nature, found in pine trees, basil, nutmeg, parsley, and rosemary. Cannabis containing terpene (alpha-pinene or α-pinene) boasts a strong pine scent. Pinene is responsible for anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, and anti-anxiety effects. | 0.12% |
| Limonene | Limonene (also known as d-limonene) is the second most common terpene in nature and the third most common terpene in cannabis. It has a powerful citrus aroma and can be found in all citruses, including lemons, oranges, grapefruits, limes, juniper, etc. Limonene is known to elevate moods and provide anxiety, depression, and stress relief. | 0.21% |
| Sabinene | Sabinene is a terpene with a peppery, spicy, citrusy, and piney aroma, presented in Norway spruce, Holm oak trees, black pepper, cardamom, and carrot seeds. Found in cannabis in small quantities. Allegedly, sabinene has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. | 0.24% |
| Bisabolol | Bisabolol (also known as α-Bisabolol or levomenol) is a lesser-known terpene found in cannabis. It contributes to anti-inflammatory, anti-irritant, antioxidant, anti-microbial, and analgesic properties of weed strains containing bisanol. Attentive smokers would be able to catch a nutty, fruity scent with herbal and floral undertones, with a tender trace of coconut. | 0.18% |
| Phellandrene | Phellandrene (also known as alpha- and beta-phellandrene) is one of the rare terpenes found in cannabis with antihyperalgesic and antidepressive properties. Phellandrene contributes to a minty, woody, and mildly citrus aroma in cannabis. Previously confused with limonene and pinene, phellandrene was eventually distinguished as a separate terpene common for eucalyptus. Also, it could be found in mint, dill, black pepper, cinnamon, parsley, pine, and lavender. | 0.26% |

after one season and one harvest I see why this beuaty won a bunch of awards.
Are you smoking the prettiness of the bud or the bud's content Antoinette?
always wondered why suckers prefer high potent weed when they could always have low potent ones. It took some chronic pain for it to make sense. If it weren't fpr such high THC MJ 's I would never have left the house after my motorbike accident. Got me out the wheelchair and active enough to move participate in therapy.
I thought my bad was unpleasant, aesthetic wise. Not preety like Northern Lights.
Really don't understand why people grow marijuana indoors. I mean its in the plants name weed! Never seen a weed thrive indoors have you? But outside variants like Gorilla Glue shine in the sunlight and make such INCREDIBL blunts that all my friends shifted to outdoor grows.
Taste kinda reminded me of Sour Diesel which is what got me hooked.
One of the highest yielding weed I have ever grown. Even my dad was astonsihed bu the harvest.
even though it is a hybrid, I smoke it only before bedtime, it helps me fall asleep, I don't feel any energy effect from GG at all
this is an excellent hybrid that compares to Girl Scout Cookies in terms of effects. It is a moderate strain that is most suitable for mid to late afternoon uses. It has a great taste and unique smell. It is by far my favorite strain.
It’s a good high besides the headache. But it relaxed me when I got off work
perfectly balanced hybrid - good high without over-stimulation, probably because its indica-prevaling
very smooth and soft smoke never makes me cough
Nice hybrid, highly noticeable its indica dominant. Good choice for the night smoke cause it provides SUPREME relaxation and goddamn it makes me almost immovable. I dont mind since it works like an insomnia pill for me.
this batch of GG smells different than last time. More apricot and flowery notes. Im not complaining lol just wanted to say I like this too. Though it has similar potency 20% thc. It helps me cope with sleep problems and relieves muscle tension.
I love this strain! It’s so relaxing and allows you to just chill on the couch while binge watching Netflix.
wonderful, top-shelf, deep, and pleasant high. It has a strong mental delay but you can still focus though in a trance kind of way. This stuff is extremely potent, so I advise that you take it when you have completed all the days task.
I absolutely love GG. It has a unique way of channeling my energy and helps me get very creative. Particularly like its taste and the creativity bit, but the high can be a bit overwhelming. If you can handle it then it is the real deal, but smoke with caution.
GG is an excellent classic strain. I don’t understand why Allbud describes the taste as being incredibly harsh. I find it to be flavorful. However, it is not for beginners and those with low tolerance. I find it useful for PTSD and muscle pain.
epic! Gorilla Glue lives up to the hype. It gets you higher than Girl Scout Cookies. Although a Sativa dominant hybrid, its effects feel more like an Indica especially when taken in large doses. You will feel happy and euphoric at first before getting Stoney and sedated.
my fav strain. I am glued to my couch…perfect for PTSD.
this dope is the best I have smoked so far. Great taste and smooth inhale.
I love GG4, it is super delicious, frosty, and stanky. It is one of my favorites.
make me real bad headache, cant work normal all the day
Gorilla Glue is a heavy strain.
intense buzz.
a perfect medicinal strain.
Best strain for stress.
Most potent strain I have tried.
did taste and smell a bit like glue. I love bongs usually, but I tried this as a joint. Definitely one of my new favorites. I use it at night to relax and go to sleep, goes great with insomnia.
Very pleasant high right off. My current fav is Gelato, and it is not as good, but still recommend this weed. Flavor is not particularly pungent, but vaping is best if you just want to get relaxed. Its a good choice to let some steam off.
I saw a review on leafly mentioning that its good both flower and vape, but I must say that the bowl I had was by far superior. Uplifting & relaxing, washed my back pain right off. This kinda reminds me of Zookies, to be honest. Its great for all day use
love the laid back relaxed feeling, makes me mellow and uplifted
Glue is such a fitting name, stuck me to my friends couch with a dumb smile
this bud is great for physical highs, but not a strong cerebral high. would recommend for body pain
Not sure if I got a bad batch or not. The high was very odd, made my legs and arms numb
it is as strong as any Gorilla, but this made me sleepier
Vaped and smoked in flower too, great experience
very tasty, good for relaxation
best for a lazy Sunday
heavy hitter
