Gangster Funk
Also known as: G-Funk
Gangster Funk Strain Overview
Gangster Funk is a relatively rare hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the West Coast cannabis scene. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, but it is believed to have been developed by underground breeders in California who sought to create a potent strain with distinctive aromatic qualities. The name references both its powerful effects and its complex, funky aroma profile that sets it apart from more common citrus or sweet strains.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dark green leaves often accented by purple hues and covered in a thick layer of frosty trichomes. The buds are usually resinous and sticky to the touch, with orange pistils weaving through the dense floral structure. Gangster Funk is noted for its complex terpene profile that creates a unique aromatic experience combining earthy, diesel, and funky cheese notes with subtle fruity undertones.
While not as widely available as commercial strains, Gangster Funk has developed a cult following among connoisseurs who appreciate its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile. The strain's rarity means that specific growing characteristics and exact genetic lineage can vary between different breeders' versions, though most maintain the core aromatic and effect profiles that define the strain.

Gangster Funk Strain Growing Information
Gangster Funk is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready in late September to early October. Plants tend to be medium in height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though they may require some height management in confined spaces. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a Mediterranean climate when grown outdoors and benefits from careful nutrient management due to its sensitivity to overfeeding.
