Gas Monkey
Gas Monkey
Overview
Gas Monkey is a rare indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing Grease Monkey with Gas (or GMO in some sources). This sturdy hybrid emerges from a carefully selected crossbreeding that showcases a potent genetic synergy, enhancing both its aromatic profile and THC levels. The GMO component is known for its intense garlicky flavor and substantial THC potency, while Grease Monkey contributes sweet, earthy notes and relaxing effects to create a balanced experience that appeals to a broad spectrum of users. Gas Monkey's buds are fluffy and light green, with vibrant orange hairs and clear trichomes indicating potent cannabinoid production. The buds have a fluffy airy popcorn-shaped olive green appearance with small orange hairs and a coating of tiny clear crystal trichomes. This strain brings on heavy effects thanks to its super high THC level, which ranges between 28-31% on average, positioning it among the more potent varieties available in the cannabis market. The CBD content is significantly low, typically less than 1%.

Growing Information
Gas Monkey thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments, reaching a medium height that optimizes space usage while producing substantial yields. The flowering time is typically between 8-9 weeks. For indoor cultivation, maintaining environmental controls such as humidity, temperature, and lighting is important to maximize the development of dense, resinous buds. Outdoor cultivation demands strategic planting to ensure adequate sunlight exposure and protection from extreme weather conditions. Growing difficulty is considered easy with outdoor yields of 10-15 oz per plant and indoor yields of 1-2 oz per square foot. When grown outdoors, the plant requires sunny and dry weather with temperatures ranging between 72-80°F and intense humidity. The branches will likely need additional support due to the weight of dense buds during peak flowering phase. Achieving medium to high yields involves meticulous nutrient management and regular monitoring for pests and diseases.
