Gorilla Runtz Bx1
Also known as: Gorilla Runtz Backcross 1
Gorilla Runtz Bx1 Strain Overview
Gorilla Runtz Bx1 is a modern cannabis hybrid created through a backcross breeding technique that combines two popular contemporary strains: Gorilla Glue #4 and Runtz. The 'Bx1' designation indicates this is a first-generation backcross, meaning one of the parent strains (typically Gorilla Glue #4) was crossed with the original Gorilla Runtz hybrid, then bred back to reinforce specific desirable traits from that parent. This breeding approach aims to stabilize and enhance particular characteristics while maintaining genetic diversity.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a complex visual appearance that reflects its dual heritage. Flowers often display deep green coloration with occasional purple hues, complemented by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of trichomes that gives the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance. The plant structure tends to be moderately bushy with good lateral branching, making it suitable for various cultivation techniques.
Gorilla Runtz Bx1 has gained popularity in both medical and recreational cannabis communities for its balanced effects and complex flavor profile. While specific lineage details may vary between breeders, the strain generally represents a deliberate attempt to combine Gorilla Glue #4's potent effects and resin production with Runtz's distinctive sweet flavor profile and colorful appearance. As with many modern hybrids, exact genetic expressions can vary between phenotypes and growing conditions.

Gorilla Runtz Bx1 Strain Growing Information
Gorilla Runtz Bx1 is considered moderately difficult to cultivate, making it more suitable for intermediate to advanced growers. The strain typically flowers in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Plants tend to be medium in height, reaching 3-5 feet indoors and potentially taller outdoors with proper training.
Yield expectations are moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 1.5-2 ounces per square foot under optimal conditions. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize light penetration and bud development. Gorilla Runtz Bx1 can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors that influence terpene expression and resin production.
Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold in the dense buds, providing adequate nutrient support during peak flowering, and ensuring good air circulation around the plants. The strain's resin production is typically abundant, requiring careful handling during harvest and trimming to preserve trichomes.
