Hazy Gorilla
Also known as: Hazy Gorilla Glue, Hazy GG
Hazy Gorilla Strain Overview
Hazy Gorilla is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that represents a creative cross between two popular genetic lines: Gorilla Glue #4 and a haze-dominant sativa parent, typically Super Silver Haze or another classic haze variety. This combination was developed to blend the potent, resinous characteristics of Gorilla Glue #4 with the cerebral, uplifting effects associated with haze strains. The strain emerged in the mid-2010s as breeders sought to create varieties that offered both strong physical effects and clear-headed mental stimulation.
The plant typically displays characteristics from both parent lines, with dense, trichome-covered buds reminiscent of Gorilla Glue #4 but with a more elongated structure inherited from its haze ancestry. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to lime green, often with vibrant orange pistils weaving through the flower structure. The trichome coverage is exceptionally heavy, giving the buds a frosty, sticky appearance that lives up to its 'Gorilla' namesake. The aroma profile combines elements from both lineages, creating a complex sensory experience.
Hazy Gorilla has gained popularity among both recreational users and medical cannabis patients for its balanced effects and versatile applications. While not as widely documented as its parent strains, it has developed a following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate hybrid varieties that don't lean too heavily toward either indica or sativa dominance. The strain's genetic heritage ensures it carries the robust growth characteristics of its predecessors while offering a unique combination of effects.

Hazy Gorilla Strain Growing Information
Hazy Gorilla is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 9-11 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready in late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are substantial, often producing 450-550 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can yield 500-700 grams per plant. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor environments but thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to reach medium to tall heights, with indoor plants typically growing to 120-180 cm and outdoor plants potentially reaching 200 cm or more. Special considerations include providing adequate support for branches during flowering due to heavy bud development, maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold in dense colas, and implementing training techniques like topping or LST to manage height and maximize light penetration.
