Peer-reviewed, open-access studies that examined samples sold or grown under this name. Findings describe those samples, not the breeder’s release, and may not match every product. Each quote is copied from the paper’s full text.
- Cannabinoids: A Gorilla Glue #4 sample labeled 25.41–30.88% THC measured 15.68% THC by dry weight, well below the reported range.
“Gorilla Glue #4 | Dispensary 3, 403R-00073 | Denver, 80204 | 25.41–30.88 | 6 | 15.68 (0.77) | -38.30% | -49.20%”

- Terpenes: Gorilla Glue #4 samples were grouped among the beta-caryophyllene-dominant cultivars.β-caryophyllene
“A fourth group of cultivars were dominated by β-caryophyllene, which included Blue Cookies, Girl Scout Cookies, Animal Cookies, Thin Mints, Fortune Cookies, Sherbert, Chemdog, and Gorilla Glue #4 (gorilla glue).”

Areto Research estimateNot published by the breeder. Areto Research estimated this with AI-assisted review of the strain’s name, reported parentage and commonly described traits; it is not a source, a lab result or a prediction for any product. Details marked “general guess” have low confidence. Each estimate is replaced as soon as a breeder publishes that detail.
Source records checked: 2026-10-31. Research checked: 2026-11-01. Fields without supporting records remain unknown. Potency and terpene composition vary by product batch; use that batch’s COA for tested values. View sources.
