Gilled Gorilla Strain Overview
Gilled Gorilla is a specialized hybrid cannabis strain developed by 517 Legend Seed Co, a micro breeder from the 517 area of Michigan that specializes in preserving landrace, heirloom, legendary, and old-school strains. This unique cultivar represents an innovative approach to cannabis breeding, combining heritage genetics with modern cultivation techniques. The strain was created through a meticulous breeding process that involves crossing Matanuska Gorilla with 1978 Maui Wowie, resulting in what the breeder describes as a 'lime diesel acetone terp based powerhouse.'
The strain's lineage traces back to some of cannabis culture's most legendary varieties. Matanuska Gorilla itself is a cross between the famous GG4 (Gorilla Glue #4) and Matanuska Thunderfuck from 1974, while the other parent is the classic 1978 Maui Wowie, a Hawaiian sativa landrace known for its tropical characteristics and historical significance. This complex genetic background creates a strain that bridges different eras of cannabis breeding, from the legendary Alaskan varieties of the 1970s to the modern Gorilla Glue genetics that became popular in the 2010s. The strain is characterized by its distinctive terpene profile dominated by lime notes, minimal leaf-to-bud ratio, and abundant trichome production that gives it a heavily frosted appearance.

Gilled Gorilla Strain Growing Information
Gilled Gorilla can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments with a flowering time of approximately 90 days. The strain exhibits characteristics inherited from both parent lines - the robust, resinous qualities of Gorilla genetics combined with the tropical adaptability of Maui Wowie. Plants are known for their minimal leaf-to-bud ratio, making trimming easier, and abundant frost production. The strain benefits from the cold resistance inherited from its Matanuska genetics while maintaining good performance in various growing conditions. Growers report heavy trichome production and dense bud development. The strain is considered moderately difficult to grow and is best suited for experienced cultivators who can manage its longer flowering period.
