What is the The Gorgon strain?
The Gorgon is a indica cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and blueberry and earthy flavor profile.
The Gorgon is a heavily indica-dominant hybrid strain (90% indica/10% sativa) created by Uprising Seed Co through crossing Purple Punch with Do-Si-Dos F2. Named after the infamous monsters of Greek lore, this strain has established itself as a potent and flavorful variety known for its sweet, fruity characteristics inherited from its distinguished parent strains. The strain was developed as part of Uprising Seed Co's breeding program to create powerful indica varieties with complex flavor profiles.
The Gorgon produces long, super dense, pepper-shaped olive green buds with bright neon green undertones, thick orange hairs (pistils), and chunky golden-white trichomes that give the flowers a frosty appearance. The strain's visual appeal is enhanced by its resinous coating, which hints at its considerable potency. True to its genetics, The Gorgon exhibits the best characteristics of both parent strains - the sweet, grape-like qualities of Purple Punch combined with the robust, earthy complexity of Do-Si-Dos F2.
With a flowering time of approximately 60 days, The Gorgon can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors, making it versatile for different growing environments. The strain has never been available as feminized seeds from Uprising Seed Co, only as regular seeds. This potent indica delivers a powerful body high with sedative qualities that make it particularly suitable for evening use, offering users a deeply relaxing experience that can help with various conditions.
