GG4 reviews
Australian Medical batch - “NUGTz Evening Chill”, after much research, prescribing doctor says this is white labeled gorilla glue.
Overall: 7.5/10 — B+
Appearance:
Absolutely massive buds, easily over 2g each, and very dense. Well trimmed, beautiful green with orange hairs and some purple flecks throughout. Trichomes are solid, and honestly the sheer size and density were the most impressive part.
8.5/10
Aroma:
Sweet and herbal with chamomile notes, hints of citrus, woody and earthy tones, and a bit of funk on the back end. Not loud, but rich and pleasant when you really take it in.
7.5/10
Texture / Cure:
Well cured and quite sticky, but a bit tough to break off the stem. Didn’t grind up super fluffy, which makes me think the dry might’ve been a little rushed.
5.5/10
Smoothness:
Very smooth smoke, no harshness or throat burn. Easy to take bigger hits without coughing.
7.5/10
Flavor:
Warm, earthy, slightly sweet with some citrus. Kinda like enjoying a strong espresso on a cold morning — not flashy, but really satisfying in a cozy way.
7.5/10
Effects:
Hits hard and fast. Very couch-locking with heavy drowsiness and strong body relaxation. Amazing for sleep, but I do wish it had a bit more euphoria in the head high to balance it out.
8.5/10
Mood & Experience:
Straight knockout strain. Had me nodding off while smoking, both at night and even in the morning. Super heavy hitter, and as someone who really enjoys indicas, this was honestly beautiful. Haven’t tried it socially, but I imagine it’d be more of a chill, quiet vibe.
8.5/10
Negatives:
You’re basically done for after smoking. Took all my effort just to make it to bed. That said, if you fight through the drowsiness, you actually start functioning again fairly quickly — about 45 minutes later I felt mostly normal, so I kind of wish the heavy effects lasted longer.
Final Thoughts:
As a nighttime strain for sleep and deep relaxation, this is the best I’ve had so far. You can barely keep your eyes open and your whole body just melts. It’s not an overwhelming or uncomfortable sedation, just extremely relaxing and very couch-locking. If you prefer sativas, energetic highs, or more euphoric effects, this might feel a bit one-dimensional — and honestly, with a touch more head euphoria this strain could be next-level. But for pure end-of-day shutdown mode, this one absolutely delivers.
So, for context, I asked the guy at the bud shop to help me forget what my government did last night (at present it is the early afternoon of Jan 3 2026), and he suggested Gorilla Glue. It's been a few years since I'd had this strain, so I felt it was the right call to bring me calm. I used my newly purchased "small" bowl to reset my tolerance range, which was daily, multiple times and with my "big" bowl (even the external surface of the little bowl can literally fit inside the big bowl) for roughly a week leading up to this.
The smell on my bud was quite piney and citrusy for GG. Must've been a limonene heavy grow. Smooth smoke. I didn't really get much of a taste that could be picked out. It's probably be more citrusy as well. Which, now that I'm sitting with the sensations, it would make sense. This one isn't quite as heavy as I've known GG to be. I've past the peak, but I'm not quite glued to my seat. I'm still plenty relaxed... my face just isn't melted. So they've hit a pretty sweet spot with potency. My shoulder's are dropped. my limbs are lose, but not energized. I'm just kinda... good! I give it a 4/5 becuase despite being a very mellow, very sweet spot balance in the potency... there's nothing MEMORABLE about this one. Purple Haze and Maui Wowie and even Rainbow Sherbet all had such unique sensations that they earn an almost mythic space on my lists. GG doesnt quite hit that plane of existence for me, but it's perfectly acceptable for new users who want a more mellow, relaxed, but not quite sedated... or not FULLY sedated at the peak, I should say. more leveled out than sedated.
Been smoking on this strain ever since it first appeared in the Colorado markets way back In 2014-2015 (maybe 2016?). Either way, it's been a long time. I remember when they thought this strain was genetically a 50/50 hybrid!! This strain, regardless of THC content, always hits hard and heavy! A crushing physical euphoria washes over you upon exhale, wrapping your body in a warm blanket of serenity. As your body sinks lower and lower, your head remains completely clear headed, uplifted, and awake. Drowsiness does eventually kick in, either later in the high or depending on how much you consume. This strain has never let me down. It's genetics have remained strong throughout the years!!
I picked up Original Glue (GG4) from Pressure Deliveries for a low-key night with my girlfriend, and it ended up being a really memorable one. We rolled up a joint and just hung out by the water, taking in the view and enjoying the moment. The high came on steady and strong—first a wave of euphoria that put us both in a good mood, then a deep, heavy relaxation that made everything feel slow and calm in the best way. At some point I caught myself zoning out just watching the water and losing track of time, which honestly added to the experience. It’s definitely potent and leans toward that “glued to the couch” feeling, but in a comfortable, content way rather than overwhelming. We ended up just talking, snacking, and enjoying the evening without any stress. Overall, it’s a great strain for unwinding with someone you enjoy being around, especially when you want to fully relax and just be present.
Great strain established at the Global Cannabis introduction, good foundation thanks to cookies. Perfect strain for in the evening. Take a couple of puffs and you'll feel satisfied. No need to keep toking that jay. Puff and daydream away. You'll feel relaxed and pressure relief perfect for sleep or evening in general. It's a creeper, the effect comes heavy minute by minute.
I have it from Hollands Hoogtes @ Tilburg with 28% THC and it is amazing. Beautifull dense nugs super fresh super light green.
10/10 for people in the first place with insomnia followed for anxiety, depression, stress & burn out. Works great for my C-PTSS and ADD. It's really one of the best. The core of today's cannabis world.
GG#4 is straight-up the jam. The high seems to settle all over your face—uplifting, chill. It feels like a good social weed and is overall just relaxing around the house. It's a clean high, never too rough—soothing. doesn't make you sleepy, but can make ya wanna watch on movie on the couch. It has a pine taste to it. I can't say much more about this strain; it's in my Top 10. Also, good weed to sit back and ponder life.
Oh, Gorilla Glue. The GG4 subtype is one of my all-time favorite strains, and I’ve tried 30+ different strains.
I acknowledge that I may have had quite a different experience with this than many of the other reviewers on here, but the top effect for me was a powerful aphrodisiac.
And you’ll sleep well.
That is all.
10/10
Definently got potent amount of Myrcene, Linalool, and Caryophellene, and does not have any citrus or fruity taste unlike the one I used to get. Even with two bowls, it did as much as what other strains would do with three and a half bowl, now I have to go inside because the weather is really hot and sunny, I am sweating but I am so lazy to get up from my chair and go in, which got an air conditioner. Okay, I wake up. I go in quick. Now I am in my bed. Holy fuck. So Ghost Train Haze made my head rush so fast and was much more than what I expected from description saying Haze on steroids. This one said it will glue you on a spot and you get stuck. Now I am like what the frick I am just being sucked into my bed. Not glue to be honest, but gotta be named as Gorilla Vacuum a.k.a GV4. Like how GTH felt like king of Sativa, this one feels like king of Indica, even though the Indica percentage isn't that high compared to others. Not my TOP 1 or TOP 0 like other say, but probably at least in my TOP 5.
