How to grow Gorilla Z
Taste
Seb's take
Original Glue and Z combine in Gorilla Z, a 60% indica-leaning hybrid built with potency and flavour equally in mind. Sweet and fruity on the nose; the high is creative before it turns relaxed and sleepy at 24% THC — a hit, and then rather more than that.
Where it comes from
Barney's Farm crossed Original Glue with Z — the Zkittlez line — to build this 60% indica-leaning hybrid. The Glue supplies resin and weight; Z the sweet, fruity, sherbet-adjacent character it is prized for. The record says it was made with potency and flavour equally in mind, and the pairing bears that out: a fuel-heavy parent tempered by one of the sweeter names in circulation.
Nose & flavour
Sweet and fruity on the nose, the Z parent leading — candy-bright, with the Glue's resin giving it body rather than diesel. A cleaner, more dessert-leaning aroma than the Glue alone would suggest, which is rather the point of putting Z into it.
The high
It opens with a creative spark before the indica side asserts itself, turning relaxed and then frankly sleepy. At 24% THC there is real force behind it — a hit, as the record puts it, and then rather more than that. The end of the arc is firmly the sitting-down sort.
Growing it
Feminised, medium at around 140cm. Flowering runs 55 to 65 days, with heavy yields between 600 and 700 g/m² — generous by any measure. CBD sits at 0.2%, THC at 24%. A productive, well-behaved plant of manageable height, the sort that returns a lot without asking for heroics in return.
