Popular Gorilla varieties

Since its inception, there have been numerous iterations and recreations of the original GG#4. With each variant offering up something a little different, the choice is plentiful for cannabis enthusiasts, with a cultivar guaranteed to suit each grower’s needs and preferences.

GG #1

Also known as Sister Glue, GG#1 hit the cannabis market in 2016 and is seen as an even more soothing version of the original GG#4. This is thanks to typically higher THC levels than its 2014 counterpart. Coupled with a sweeter flavour and fragrance, GG #1 is a popular choice for those seeking a stronger stone.

GG#4

GG#4 is the original strain that started it all, back in 2014. Sometimes referred to as Original Glue or GG4, this is the cultivar that all others are based on, with an intensely relaxing high and flavours of pine, earth, and lemon. GG4 is bound to impress; after all, she's multi-award-winning for a reason.

GG #5

The result of crossing GG1 and GG4, GG #5, or New Glue, delivers potent flavours and effects. This is thanks to crossing two already intense iterations. Similar to the previously mentioned Glues, GG5 brings a heavy high that is bound to catch a few unsuspecting smokers by surprise. Give it a try; it might be your new favourite of the Gorilla family.
