What is the Gorilla Dawg strain?
Gorilla Dawg is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and chemical and diesel flavor profile.
Gorilla Dawg is a predominantly indica-dominant hybrid strain (70% indica, 30% sativa) developed by Mycotek through a complex breeding program that resulted in what breeders call 'the mother load of all Chems.' This strain represents an F1 hybrid cross between Gorilla Glue #4 from GG Strains and 3 Chems from Top Dawg Seeds, creating a unique genetic profile where all four major Chem Dog cuts converge in a single cross. The lineage includes Chem 91, Chem 4, Chem D, and Chem Sis, making it a powerhouse of classic Chemdog genetics combined with the renowned potency of Gorilla Glue #4.
The strain is renowned for its exceptional resin production, earning its reputation as being 'completely covered in glue' and producing an intense aroma that 'absolutely reeks of sour diesel fuel.' Gorilla Dawg exhibits distinctive flower structures that can range from Stardawg-shaped colas to Glue stacked spears, demonstrating the genetic diversity inherited from its complex parentage. The buds are typically dense and heavily coated in trichomes, reflecting the premium genetics from both parent lines. This strain has gained recognition among cannabis connoisseurs for its potent effects and unique terpene profile that combines the best characteristics of both the Gorilla Glue and Chemdog families.
