About GG4
GG4, also known as Original Glue or Gorilla Glue #4, is a legendary indica-dominant hybrid that originated from a cross between Chem's Sister, Sour Dubb, and Chocolate Diesel. The strain was developed by American breeders Joesy Whales and Lone Watty of GG Strains.
The effects of GG4 are known for their slow build-up ("creeper") – you feel the high coming on gradually, starting with euphoric and uplifting mental stimulation. Next, a deep, warm physical relaxation develops that can be so strong that you feel "glued" to the couch.
This strain owes its name to the extremely sticky, resinous buds – the resin is so sticky that it makes your fingers stick together.

With THC levels ranging from 20% to as much as 30%, GG4 is one of the more potent strains on the market. This makes the strain particularly suitable for experienced users with a higher tolerance.
The high begins with a clear, euphoric mental uplift that can stimulate creativity and positivity. Over time, the physical effects creep in, resulting in a deep, relaxed state that often leads to "couch-lock" and eventually sleep.
