After releasing our award winning Gorilla glue Auto we immediately started looking for a way to top it. When we secured a clone of a Zkittles mother we couldn’t wait to get to work on producing a strain that had all the power and punch of Gorilla with the zesty uplifting buzz of the Zkittlez strain. The resulting cross surpassed even our greatest hopes.
Pale green leaves tend to grow quite long and more slender than you would expect for an indica dominant strain. A classic pine tree-shaped plant with close side branching and a dense heavy main cola, are literally smothered in sticky trichomes. None of the scissor sticking goodness from the Glue has been lost in this beauty! These frosty crystals are packed with THC and you can easily expect levels of 20% to be achieved without requiring expert skills.
The yield of the Rainbow glue is very good, growing 400-500gm2 in a SOG under good conditions. Be aware that the main cola of this plant will be big and very dense so ensure you have a good airflow around the plants at all times, especially as you approach harvest time.
The effects come on fast. Uplifting and energising feelings abound from the first toke, building to a euphoric buzz that is truly special. If you keep going either with repeated bong rips of do a blunt to yourself, the more indica body effects will begin to take hold. This is where the Gorilla heritage can come through and catch you unaware if you are not careful!
- Yield: 400g-500g/m2
- THC: 20%
- CBD: Less than 1% CBD
- Taste: What will really take your breath away is the super pungent candy-fruit aroma that wafts up from this lovely lady as soon as the flowers begin to fatten up. Tropical pineapple, lemon lime and a slightly sour tang at the end make this a real mouth-watering experience.
Strain FAQ
How do breeders make pineapple-flavored cannabis?
Matchmaking with sweet, fruity parent strains is key. Breeders can focus on pineapple overtones over several generations by selecting and crossing breeds with fruity or tropical scents. Like a good recipe, patience and accuracy are said to be needed to make the right pineapple combination.
How has increased THC levels affected cannabis breeding?
Breeding for strains with 20% THC and beyond has spurred innovation and the discovery of unusual exciting genotypes. It is important to remember that the mission is about enhancing the strain's taste, fragrance, and therapeutic potential as well as just stretching THC boundaries.
Why do Ruderalis auto-flower?
Ruderalis strains bloom according on age, unlike Sativa and Indica cultivars that flower with light cycle changes. For efficient and consistent growing, this characteristic reportedly simplifies cultivation and provides a predictable growth cycle.
How have strains from various places optimised THC and CBD?
With a progressive approach to cannabis legalisation and research, North America and Canada have developed recreational strains with high THC and medical strains with high CBD. The legal diversity in these regions has spurred substantial breeding programmes to optimise cannabinoid content for varied uses.
Why do indica plants seem different from sativa ones?
Indica plants are short, bushier, and have broad leaves. Due to their mountainous roots, being low and strong protects them from wind. Their tiny design is practical and attractive, making them ideal for indoor gardens.
