Monkey Glue

Description from Growers Choice

Origins and Background

Monkey Glue is one of the most iconic cannabis strains in recent years, born from what many consider the most fortunate accident in cannabis history. It was created by breeders Josey Wales and Lone Watie from the USA, who discovered the strain after Josey’s Chem Sister accidentally hermied and pollinated a Sour Dubb. Rather than discard the seeds, Lone saw potential and decided to germinate them out of curiosity. The result was the legendary Monkey Glue.

Grow Characteristics

Monkey Glue is a 70% indica hybrid known for its high potency and heavy resin production, yet it remains relatively easy to cultivate. This makes it a great option for growers of all experience levels. Indoors, under optimal conditions, it can yield up to 500–700g/m². Outdoors, when given the right environment, the plant can grow up to 1.5–2m in height and produce up to 800g per plant. Its flowering time is just 8 weeks, making it a quick turnaround strain.

Due to its sticky resin, Monkey Glue is known for being quite clingy, so growers should handle it with care.

Flavor and Aroma

Monkey Glue delivers a unique flavor profile that combines mild diesel notes with a sweet and refreshing lemon taste. This combination makes it a favorite among connoisseurs who appreciate a complex yet enjoyable smoking experience.

Potency and Effects

With an average THC content of 25% (some phenotypes reaching up to 30%), Monkey Glue is one of the most potent strains available. It delivers a fast-acting, powerful indica effect that lasts for a long time, deeply relaxing both the body and mind. However, its sativa influence adds a pleasant, uplifting euphoria, making it a well-rounded strain.

Thanks to its high potency, Monkey Glue is also popular among medicinal users for its ability to help with chronic pain, insomnia, and appetite stimulation.

Additional Information

This strain is a feminized hybrid with genetics tracing back to Sour Dubb, Chem Sister, and Chocolate Diesel. It has a terpene profile dominated by Limonene, giving it its distinct citrus aroma. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation and is ideal for growers looking for a high-yielding, easy-to-grow strain with a long-lasting, relaxing effect.
