GG#2016
Also known as: GG 2016, GG2016
GG#2016 Strain Overview
GG#2016 is a hybrid cannabis strain that represents a specific phenotype selection from the broader Gorilla Glue family, which originated from GG Strains (formerly Gorilla Glue Seeds). This particular phenotype was stabilized and released in 2016, hence the numerical designation in its name. The strain is part of the complex lineage that includes Chocolate Diesel, Sour Dubb, and Chem's Sister, though GG#2016 represents a refined expression of these genetics with consistent characteristics that distinguish it from other Gorilla Glue variants.
The strain is characterized by dense, resinous buds that are typically light to medium green in color with occasional purple hues, often covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give it a frosty appearance. The buds are known for their sticky texture, which can make handling and preparation somewhat challenging but contributes to the strain's potency. GG#2016 maintains the signature traits of the Gorilla Glue family while offering a more balanced effect profile compared to some of its more indica-dominant relatives.
Notable features of GG#2016 include its complex aroma profile and consistent growth patterns. The strain has gained recognition among cultivators for its reliable performance and among consumers for its distinctive effects. While not as widely documented as the original Gorilla Glue #4, GG#2016 has developed a following among those who appreciate the Gorilla Glue genetics but seek a slightly different expression of these characteristics.

GG#2016 Strain Growing Information
GG#2016 is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for intermediate to experienced growers. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean climates with consistent temperatures.
Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Plants tend to be medium in height, with indoor plants reaching 100-150 cm and outdoor plants growing to 150-200 cm. The strain requires good air circulation and careful monitoring of humidity levels, particularly during flowering, to prevent mold due to its dense bud structure. Regular pruning and training techniques like topping or SCROG can help maximize yields and light penetration.
