Gorilla Z
Also known as: Gorilla Zkittlez, Gorilla zkittles, Z Gorilla
Gorilla Z Strain Overview
Gorilla Z, also known as Gorilla Zkittlez, is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) developed by the renowned breeder Barney's Farm. This powerful cannabis cultivar represents a masterful fusion of two legendary strains: Original Glue (formerly Gorilla Glue #4) and Zkittlez. The strain combines the potent, resinous qualities of its Gorilla Glue heritage with the fruity, tropical flavor profile characteristic of Zkittlez genetics. Gorilla Z exhibits dense, oversized olive green buds featuring deep blue-purple undertones and a thick coating of frosty white trichomes that give the strain its distinctive sticky texture. The buds are accented with thin, clear amber hairs and produce an incredibly aromatic profile. This strain has gained significant recognition in the cannabis community, with some phenotypes winning competitions such as the 2022 Dabadoo Brasil championship. Known for its exceptional resin production and high cannabinoid content, Gorilla Z has become a favorite among both recreational users seeking potent effects and medical patients looking for therapeutic relief.
