Doublegorilla
Also known as: Double Gorilla, Double Gorilla Glue
Doublegorilla Strain Overview
Doublegorilla is a potent hybrid cannabis strain that represents a genetic refinement of the popular Gorilla Glue lineage. This strain was developed by crossing two distinct Gorilla Glue phenotypes, specifically Gorilla Glue #4 with another selected Gorilla Glue variant, creating what breeders describe as an 'amplified' version of the original genetics. The strain emerged in the mid-2010s as cultivators sought to enhance the desirable traits of the Gorilla Glue family while maintaining its characteristic resin production and potency.
Visually, Doublegorilla plants exhibit dense, chunky buds covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give the flowers a frosty, almost white appearance. The nugs are typically forest green with occasional purple hues that may develop under cooler temperatures, complemented by vibrant orange pistils. The strain's name references both its genetic lineage and its formidable potency, with 'Double' indicating the reinforced genetics and 'Gorilla' alluding to its powerful effects.
Notable features include exceptionally high resin production, making Doublegorilla popular among concentrate producers and extract artists. The strain has gained recognition in cannabis competitions and among connoisseurs for its balanced hybrid effects and complex aromatic profile. While not as widely distributed as its parent strains, Doublegorilla has developed a dedicated following in legal markets where it is available.

Doublegorilla Strain Growing Information
Doublegorilla is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience for optimal results. The plants have a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields are substantial, averaging 450-550 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 600-800 grams per plant under ideal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation but thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to be medium to tall in height, often requiring height management techniques like topping or low-stress training. Doublegorilla prefers a stable climate with temperatures between 68-80°F (20-27°C) and moderate humidity levels, particularly during flowering to prevent mold in the dense buds. Special considerations include providing strong support for branches due to the weight of the resinous buds and maintaining good air circulation around the plants.
