Indica Dominant Hybrid – 70% Indica / 30% Sativa
THC: 17% – 23%
Gorilla OG, also known as “Gorilla Mango” or “Gorilla Mango OG,” is an indica dominant hybrid strain created through crossing the classic Gorilla Glue #4 X Mango Kush strains. This potent powerhouse packs a heavy hit of effects that will have you knocked flat out before you know what’s happening. The high comes on fast and hard, slamming into the mind first with a rushing tingly effect that immediately erases any negative or racing thoughts. As your mind settles into this heavy state of unfocused euphoria, a relaxing body high will suddenly take hold, dropping you into a heavy state of couch lock that leaves you fully immovable and pretty sedated. With these heavy effects and its high 17-23% average THC level, Gorilla OG is often chosen to treat conditions such as insomnia, depression, mood swings and chronic stress or anxiety. This bud has a spicy and sour fruity tropical mango flavor with a lightly sweet exhale. The aroma is very similar, although with notable hints of earthy pungency to it, too. Gorilla OG buds have long grape-shaped forest green nugs with thick and furry dark orange hairs and a coating of sparkling minty white crystal trichomes.
Due to her GG#4 association, Gorilla OG tops out at 22% THC with a high that’s pretty powerful. Round nugs are a dusty green tone and feature nearly clear hairs and tons of resin that’s accompanied by thick trichome coverage. Flavors of mango aren’t as strong as one might think, yet while this fruit is still present, hints of leather, earth, diesel, and spices all play into her taste and aroma, offering an experience that feels luxurious, to say the least.
A true stoner strain, Gorilla OG’s high builds slowly and brings about a sensation of euphoria that lasts for hours. Your mind and body will be buzzing and thoughts may not be quite as clear as they were a few hours ago once her effects fully take hold. The most prominent part of your experience will be the strong sensation of couch lock, making it difficult for you to satisfy the munchies that have crept in. Our advice is to get yourself set up ahead of time with a blanket, pillow, and plenty of food within arm’s reach.
Gorilla OG tends to be one of the more popular choices when it comes to medical ailments, as her strength overpowers all types of issues with ease. Insomnia usually tops the list, as most users feel so tired after a few tokes that they simply pass out no matter how hard they try to fight it. Physical pain is numbed fairly easily with this bud, and your euphoric state of mind won’t allow any negative thoughts associated with stress or depression to come creeping in.
So far this strain is a winner, except when it comes to home cultivation. Gorilla OG doesn’t exactly come with an instruction book, and since her breeders are elusive, no one is super sure just what she needs. Some point to a 7 to 9 week flowering period and note that her yields are less than impressive, but we don’t want to give up on her so quickly just yet.
The next time you’ve had a rough day and want to numb yourself to the world, Gorilla OG is the strain to do it with. Potent enough to send you into a state of bliss without being overwhelming for newer users, this strain can be considered as a milder version of GG#4. All in all, we’d say that’s a pretty good sales pitch.
A three-way cross between Original Glue, Black Domina, and Blueberry, the buds of Gorilla Kush are forest and olive green with tinges of purple that hint at its Indica lineage. Depending on cultivation and curing techniques used, some batches of these buds will tend to be more resinous and more challenging to break apart by hand. That said, it’s recommended that users keep a grinder handy to avoid losing trichome content. Aromas and flavors are reminiscent of its parents, offering earthy and woody notes with a floral and fuel fragrance that can be tasted on the exhale.
Cultivating Gorilla Kush is easy to moderate, producing average yields in about 8 weeks. THC levels average in the 20’s and over-consuming may leave you stuck on the couch. Ending

Grow information
Gorilla OG is ready for harvest by nine weeks, producing dark leaves with white, trichome-covered buds. Though some buds appear around 7-8 weeks, patience is a virtue with Gorilla OG to tease the most resin out of its buds.
Type of High
GorillaOG cannabis strain’s high is one for the Indica lovers that lifts you into a peak of rapture that is still mellow with buzzy haziness. As the cerebral lift occurs, you body will become drowsy and couch-locked with an active mind.
Auto Gorilla OG
As you may have guessed from the name, Auto Gorilla OG is based on Gorilla Glue #4 and a cross between OG Kush and Lowryder #2. If you’re looking for a strain to provide a lot of THC in a very compact package, then Auto Gorilla OG could be the perfect choice for you.
By “a lot of THC” we mean about 23%, which is admittedly lower than you would expect from the original Gorilla Glue. But it is still a lot more than you’d expect from an autoflowering strain and is more than you’d expect from a lot of photoperiod strains. Interestingly, Auto Gorilla OG is actually Indica dominant. So although the high is soaring and intense, it’s also a bit mellower than you’d expect. This strain has moderate CBD, . Therefore, the high is followed by a deep body buzz, rather than heavy-duty couchlock. Overall we’d say that although the THC level pointed to daytime use, it wouldn’t be out of the question to use Auto Gorilla OG at night.
Auto Gorilla OG takes a bit longer to grow than many autoflowering strains. It needs 9 to 11 weeks from seed to bud. There is no specific outdoor harvest period. You can grow this strain whenever your weather permits. Just remember that although Auto Gorilla OG is very robust in general, it still needs protection from the rain and wind. Indoor and greenhouse growers will be pleased to know that Auto Gorilla OG is a nicely compact strain. You’re looking at a growing range of between 90 cm (indoor minimum) and 1.2 m (outdoor maximum). On the other hand, Auto Gorilla OG does like to branch out horizontally. Which is how it creates the bud sites necessary for its impressive yields. Standard estimates are in the region of 100g/m2 indoors and 100g per seed outdoors. Having said that, experienced growers can set their sites much higher. As in double that or even more. Grower KushNFT reported collecting 280g from a single plant in a grow report at autoflower.net. Overall, we’d say that Auto Gorilla OG was a very suitable strain for beginners.
The taste and aroma of Auto Gorilla OG is rather more OG than Gorilla. There’s definite Kush spice in there, along with the robust sweetness of earth, fruits and a touch of pine for some menthol freshness.
