Intensity and Effects
Gorilla Zkittlez’s mixed heritage induces a high that boosts the user’s creativity, also bringing on an onset of tame sedation. On average, it has a medium-to-high level of THC at 22%. CBG content in this strain is around 1%. Even long-time partakers will find its THC concentration satisfying. Its long-lasting, relaxing effect gently tails into light sedation.
If you’re in an artistic mood, Gorilla Zkittlez is a great choice, making it ideal for visual artists and creative writers. It’s most pleasant when paired with creative pursuits, as the hazy effect it can cause, plus the creativity, can make focusing on mundane tasks more of a headache.

Therapeutic Benefits

Gorilla Zkittlez aids in the management of depression and anxiety, and when used in moderation, it can be an effective stress reliever. Those who have difficulty shifting into low gear after a busy day might benefit from Gorilla Zkittlez.
Terpenes
A cannabis strain’s terpene profile affects its flavor, smoothness, aroma, and therapeutic effects.
- Terpinolene: A common cannabinoid terpene, most marijuana strains have only a small concentration of terpinolene. Terpinolene’s ubiquity indicates its key role in the taste and smell of many cannabis strains. It carries the flavors and fragrances of pine, flowers, herbs, and citrus.
- Myrcene: It imparts a moderately sweet flavor. It has also been described as spicy, earthy, and musky.
- Ocimene: It possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-fungal, and anti-viral properties.
Grow Info
Gorilla Zkittlez may be cultivated both indoors and outdoors. Either way it delivers a generous yield. The best time of year to harvest is in October.
Outdoor cultivation does present more problems with pests, but this can be prepared for. It prefers warmer conditions, but it is sturdy. It can survive even colder and more arid climates, within reason. So, getting the right balance of light and humidity is more forgiving for indoor growing.
When properly tended to, the strain can usually be as harvested in 60 days, with an average yield of about 500-600 gr/m2 when grown indoors or 1000-2000 gr/plant when grown outdoors.
Gorilla Zkittlez grows tall for an Indica-dominant strain; plants can grow up to 170cm (5.5ft) tall. But its canopy gets densely packed with buds, whether grown indoors or outdoors. These growth tendencies can be exploited by pruning the plant as it grows. Denser bud sites improve the plant’s productivity, and pruning Gorilla Zkittlez so that it keeps low to the ground as it grows encourages more budding sites to sprout while keeping the height of the plant manageable.
To reduce vulnerability to any infestations when growing pruned plants outdoors, you can use agricultural practices like companion planting to ward off pests.
Parentage
Gorilla Zkittlez is the offspring of Zkittlez and Gorilla Glue. Both West Coast strains were well-known. Gorilla Glue had a fantastically high THC-to-CBD ratio. Zkittlez had a pretty good THC ratio, too, but it was known for its flavorful terpenes. Breeders wanted to harness the best of both strains, and the result was Gorilla Zkittlez.
Zkittlez was grown from Grape Ape and Grapefruit, while Original Glue, aka “Gorilla Glue,” has three parent strains: Chem’s Sister, Sour Dubb, and Chocolate Diesel.
Conclusion
You should definitely add a sample of Gorilla Zkittlez to your cannabis selection for those times when you just want to kick back and let loose with your creativity, whether you’re making art or playing games. If you want a potent creative high from a pedigree bud, you can’t go wrong with Gorilla Zkittlez. It’s a good choice to grow because of how hardy it is.
