Original Glue

Original Glue, formerly known as Gorilla Glue #4 or GG4, was bred by GG Strains. It was born from an unplanned pollination event when a Chem's Sister x Sour Dubb mother was accidentally pollinated by a Chocolate Diesel male the breeder, the late Joesy Whales, thought had hermaphrodited. The resulting phenotype, designated #4, turned out so resinous it stuck trimming scissors together, giving the strain its name.

Original Glue Strain at a Glance

Original Glue cannabis strain comes either as a balanced hybrid with a 50/50 indica-sativa split or slightly indica-leaning with a 60% indica and 40% sativa. THC levels commonly range from 24% to 32%, among the highest in commercial cannabis. Its dominant terpenes include caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene, producing a pungent aroma of sour diesel, earthy pine, and dark chocolate. Reported effects include an initial euphoric, cerebral lift that transitions into heavy full-body relaxation.

A Closer Look at Original Glue Strain

THC on Original Glue is consistently near the top of the charts, with most tested batches falling between 24% and 32%, so this is one to approach carefully if you're newer to higher-potency flower. The buds grow into dense, lime-green spear-shaped colas, heavily coated in a wet, glistening frost of trichomes so thick that the resin famously gave the strain its name during trimming.

Caryophyllene leads the aroma with a spicy, sour-gas punch, limonene cuts through with a zesty citrus brightness, and myrcene adds an earthy depth that ties into the strain's chocolate-diesel backbone. 

People usually report the high opening with a rush of cerebral euphoria and mental clarity before shifting into a heavy, grounding body sensation that can lean toward full couch-lock. How far that swings will depend a good deal on individual tolerance, dosage, and method of consumption.
