Highland Gorilla

Highland Gorilla is a sativa dominant hybrid (80% sativa/20% indica) strain with a character all of its own. This infamous bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 23-29% on average, with 0.8% CBD. It is sold as feminized seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

Users describe the Highland Gorilla 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. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. Because of these effects, Highland Gorilla is often chosen for managing mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

Highland Gorilla has a distinctive earthy flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. Each exhale leaves a earthy-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has chunky popcorn-shaped bright neon green nugs, curly amber hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.

For growers, Highland Gorilla offers a demanding plant best left to experienced growers — expect plants flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. Dialed-in climate control and careful pruning are repaid with exceptional bag appeal and top-shelf potency. 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 Highland family — see Highland Queen and Highland Thai for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
