Gorilla #5

Gorilla #5 is a sativa dominant hybrid (80% sativa/20% indica) strain with a character all of its own. THC testing typically lands between 15% and 21%, pairing raw strength with a 0.8% CBD content. Seeds come in feminized and regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

Users describe the Gorilla #5 high as an immediate uplifting cerebral rush that sharpens focus and sets off waves of creative energy, keeping you motivated and sociable without weighing down the body. Underneath the mental charge, a mellow body calm keeps things comfortable, taking the edge off without ever slowing you down. These combined effects make Gorilla #5 a frequent pick among patients dealing with mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

On the palate, expect coffee and lemon up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a lemon finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has long tapered spade-shaped dense green nugs with rich blue-purple undertones, fiery orange hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.

In the garden, Gorilla #5 is an easy, forgiving grow that suits first-time cultivators, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. It shrugs off common beginner mistakes, and yields stay respectable even when conditions are less than perfect. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Gorilla family — see Gorilla Dawg and Gorilla Donuts for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
