Hindu Gorilla
Also known as: Hindu Gorilla Glue, Hindu GG
What is the Hindu Gorilla strain?
Hindu Gorilla is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and diesel and earthy flavor profile.
Hindu Gorilla is a potent hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing two legendary parent strains: Hindu Kush and Gorilla Glue #4. This combination brings together the deep relaxation of a classic indica with the powerful cerebral effects of a modern hybrid. The strain emerged in the mid-2010s as breeders sought to combine the genetic stability and resin production of Gorilla Glue #4 with the ancient landrace characteristics of Hindu Kush.
The strain typically produces dense, resin-coated buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dark green leaves often accented with purple hues and vibrant orange pistils. The buds are usually compact and covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty, sticky appearance that reflects its Gorilla Glue lineage. Hindu Gorilla is known for its robust growth structure and impressive resin production, making it popular among both recreational users and concentrate producers.
Notable features include its complex aroma profile that combines earthy, pine, and diesel notes with subtle sweet undertones. The strain has gained recognition for its balanced effects that provide both physical relaxation and mental stimulation, making it suitable for various times of day depending on dosage. Its genetic heritage provides stability and consistency, though phenotypes can vary somewhat in their expression of indica versus sativa characteristics.

How do you grow Hindu Gorilla?
Hindu Gorilla is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are substantial, often producing 450-550 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments, though it thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to be medium to tall in height, with indoor plants reaching 100-150 cm and outdoor plants potentially growing to 180-220 cm. The strain exhibits good resistance to common molds and pests, though proper airflow is essential due to its dense bud structure.
Special considerations include the need for support structures during flowering as the heavy, resinous buds can cause branches to bend or break. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields and manage height. Nutrient requirements are moderate to high during flowering, with particular attention needed to phosphorus and potassium levels to support bud development.
