Seb's take
Chem Sister, Sour Dubb and Chocolate Diesel combine into Gorilla Glue #4, a decorated cross that picked up Cannabis Cups in both Michigan and Los Angeles in 2014. Earthy pine and chemical sweetness fill the nose; the high runs euphoric and uplifted before settling into happy, sleepy relaxation, and does not travel discreetly.
Where it comes from
Three American lines meet here: Chem Sister, Sour Dubb and Chocolate Diesel, a pedigree with fuel running through every branch of it. The cross earned Cannabis Cups in both Michigan and Los Angeles in 2014, which tells you the judges agreed. Herbies Seeds carry the feminised version. What the parents lend is chemistry in the literal sense — a diesel sharpness from the Sour Dubb and Chocolate Diesel, softened by the Chem Sister's heavier resin. Gorilla Glue #4 is a decorated name earned honestly, and one the plant has spent the decade since living up to.
Nose & flavour
The nose leads with earth and pine, pungent enough that it does not travel discreetly. Underneath sits something distinctly chemical — the diesel inheritance showing — with a sweet, woody finish that keeps it from turning harsh. It is a heavy, resinous smoke rather than a delicate one, the sort that coats the glass and lingers in the room long after. Old-school in the best sense: unsubtle, and entirely unapologetic about it.
The high
The opening is euphoric and uplifted, a bright lift that arrives quickly and carries a happy, sociable edge. It does not stay airborne. As the minutes pass the body settles, sleepiness creeping in and an appetite following close behind. This is the sitting-down sort in the end, a high that begins in the head and finishes in the armchair. At 28% THC, approach as you would a staircase in the dark.
Growing it
Feminised, and near enough an even indica-sativa split. Flowering runs 55 to 65 days, with plants reaching between 100 and 160cm — give her the headroom if she takes the taller road. Yields land around 549 g/m², handsome for the class. The record notes strong resistance to mould and pests and a plant that will grow almost anywhere, which makes this a forgiving choice despite the potency at the other end. Resin production is heavy, so keep your scissors clean and expect to clean them again. CBD sits at 1%.
