Gopher Glue has balanced effects.

Gopher Glue is a modern, autoflowering variety derived from a genetic cross between Cotton Candy and Ruderalis. Its exact breeding origins and the specific timeline of its development remain undocumented, as there is no provided record regarding who first crossed these parents or the precise motivations behind its creation. As an autoflowering strain, it is designed for ease of cultivation, requiring 65 days of flowering time in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers should anticipate a low yield from this variety.

The terpene profile of Gopher Glue is complex, characterized primarily by caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene. Secondary and tertiary notes in its chemical composition include linalool, humulene, pinene, beta-pinene, terpinolene, bisabolol, nerolidol, ocimene, camphene, caryophyllene-oxide, and guaiol. These compounds contribute to the strain's sensory expression, though the intensity of these specific aromatics likely varies between harvests.

As a THC-dominant cultivar, Gopher Glue is primarily recognized for producing effects that are relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make it a common choice for individuals seeking relief from stress, pain, or difficulty with sleep. Currently, there are no recorded cultivars of notable lineage derived from this strain, and Gopher Glue remains an isolated entry in contemporary breeding catalogues.
