If you’ve ever been around hemp flower, you’ve encountered this hemp DNA multiple times, and it’s one of the ones that has been gaining a lot of popularity. The lineage (Chocolate Diesel x Sour Dubb x Chem’s Sister) is where the sharp diesel-and-earth smell is derived and it’s nothing delicate. Open the bag and you will know what you are getting.

In the THCA space, the thing that makes it relevant is that it looks and smells the part at a lower price point. The buds are dense and resin-y, and the ” Gorilla Glue THCA ” moniker is a fitting description, as the trichomes are actually glued on. Many budget flower trades compromise on quality for the price, whereas this one doesn’t. If bag appeal is not a priority, it offers a fair trade as a smaller, less cosmetically manicured version of the same genetics that is sold under the “Ugly Buds” classification by DopeTHC.

For those creating a rotation rather than purchasing a single strain one at a time, it may be interesting to pair something heavy, diesel-focused and potent like this up with something more dense and kushy to capture the contrast, such as Kush Crasher Strain; a denser, earthier, heavier-bodied hybrid with a flavor profile more akin to the other end of the strain spectrum than diesel. This is one of the reasons that if you like one, you also like the other, which is why you keep it in rotation.

It’s worth keeping in mind that anyone shopping around: the naming inconsistency of this genetics (this same genetics is also listed as GG4, or GG#4, or Gorilla Glue #4 depending on who sells it) means that it’s worth running a few search variations, as the same inventory can be listed under different names completely across the websites.

In sum, this strain has no need of an introduction, which is why it’s good news to see what’s in stock before it moves.
