GG4, also known as Gorilla Glue #4, is a multiple Cannabis Cup–winning hybrid known for its insane resin production, pungent aroma, and sky-high potency. Bred by crossing Chem’s Sister × Sour Dubb × Chocolate Diesel, GG4 earned its name thanks to its stickiness — trimming a plant can literally glue your scissors shut.
This strain quickly became a foundational genetic in breeding programs looking to inject potency, yield, and gas into new hybrids.

Begins with a cerebral rush, fades into couchlock
-
Long-lasting effects, great for stress, insomnia, or pain

GG4 is not for the faint of heart — expect a wild ride with deep stoniness.
