Original Glue — also known as GG4 or Gorilla Glue #4 — is one of the most decorated cannabis strains ever created, bred by GG Strains from a complex cross of Chem's Sister, Sour Dubb, and Chocolate Diesel. The name comes from the extraordinary resin production that would literally glue trimming scissors shut, a testament to its trichome density. Its earthy, pine, and chemical aroma carries subtle chocolate and coffee undertones from the Chocolate Diesel parent, creating a deeply complex nose. Effects are powerfully sedating — full-body relaxation and euphoria that anchor consumers to the couch, making it excellent for pain, insomnia, and stress.

"Dense buds, strong genetics"

This strain handled a pH issue mid-grow better than anything else I've grown. Recovered quickly and the final product was still excellent. Strong genetics.

"Grew it outdoors — loved it"

Grew this in a 4x4 tent under LED. Stretched more than expected but structure was solid and trichome development was beautiful. Dense frosty buds at the end.
