Goliath
Also known as: Goliath F2
Goliath Strain Overview
Goliath is a potent indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain bred by In House Genetics, created from a three-way cross of Platinum, Gorilla Gloo (a Gorilla Glue phenotype), and Grateful Breath. This complex genetic lineage brings together legendary OG Kush, Master Kush, and various Diesel genetics, resulting in a strain with exceptional bag appeal, yield, and potency. The strain produces massive, dense colas with a Christmas tree structure and conical buds ranging from greenish to yellow colors, covered in a sticky layer of cannabinoid-rich trichomes. Despite its name suggesting size, Goliath plants typically grow to a modest 3-5 feet in height, making them manageable for indoor cultivation while still delivering impressive yields.
The strain exhibits a unique terpene profile that creates an intriguing sensory experience. The aroma combines traditional herbal and earthy Kush notes with peppery, spicy undertones and fruity citrus highlights. Users report complex flavors featuring peppery blueberries that transition to sweet citrus and earthy tastes on the exhale. The strain's effects follow an unusual pattern for hybrids, beginning with strong indica characteristics including couch-lock and full-body sedation, followed by a cerebral phase that brings creativity and euphoria. This makes Goliath particularly suitable for evening use and relaxation, though the secondary effects can provide mental stimulation for creative activities.

Goliath Strain Growing Information
Goliath is considered moderately difficult to grow and is available primarily as regular seeds (not feminized). The strain has a relatively quick flowering time of 8-10 weeks (56-60 days) and can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors. Indoor growers can expect moderate to high yields with plants reaching 3-5 feet in height. The strain responds well to SOG (Sea of Green) and SCROG (Screen of Green) techniques to maximize light penetration to lower branches. For outdoor cultivation, Mediterranean-style climates produce the best results, with harvest expected in late September. The strain is noted for its pest resistance and ability to withstand various environmental conditions, making it suitable for different growing setups.
