Gorilla BX is thought by many to be one of the most potent strains in existence. This rock-star strain won the 2014 Cannabis Cup as best hybrid. It is known for its extreme potency and gets its name from the resin that covers the scissors when trimming. These regular seeds were made with 100% Gorilla #4 genetics and were back-crossed 5 times before being used to produce seed stock..
The smell and taste has been described as a combination of fuel, chem and coffee. This heady hybrid has a soaring high like no other.
