GG#5: Dank, Lethal, and Glued to the Couch
In this Cannabis School deep dive, we spotlighted GG#5 — also known as Gorilla Glue #5, New Glue, or New Glue— an indica-heavy powerhouse bred from Sister Glue (GG1) and Original Glue (GG4) . True to its name, this strain delivers a deep, sticky experience.
Cannabinoid Profile:
THC: Typically around 24%, though some phenotypes hit 26–28% — potent enough to leave you stuck to your couch .
CBD: Low (~1% or under) .
CBG: Trace (~1%) .
Terpene Lineup:
Limonene: bright citrus overtones that lift mood
Caryophyllene: peppery warmth for stress relief
Linalool & Myrcene (plus α-Pinene): floral, earthy calm layered into the journey .
Flavor & Aroma:
This one hits hard with classic glue: diesel-fuel funk, earthy spice, and sweet, skunky undertones. Crack a nug and expect a potent aroma that commands respect—and maybe room clearance .
Effects:
Expect heavy sedation and deep relaxation. GG#5 usually brings a cerebral buzz that eases into full-body couch-lock. Perfect for stress relief, pain, insomnia—and yes, some serious glued-to-the-sofa sessions . Consumers report tingles, hunger, sticky naps—and dry eyes/mouth .
Good For:
Late-night chill sessions
Melting away stress or locking in sleep
Those willing to surrender productivity for relaxation
Experienced users who appreciate dank potency
Grower’s Notes:
Branchy, resin-drenched colas tower in about 56–63 days flowering. Big yields, bold aromas, and buds that glisten like freshly frosted glass .
Cannabis School’s Take:
GG#5 isn’t subtle. It’s sticky, intense, and unapologetically heavy. If you’re lighting this after dark, plan to stay put—because once it’s hit, you’ll forget you even had plans. In the glue family? This one sticks hardest.
