The Great Gazoo
The Great Gazoo is a modern hybrid strain derived from the genetics of Tangerine Power. Developed for cultivators seeking a balanced growth cycle, this plant reaches maturity after a 67-day flowering period. It is categorized as a moderate difficulty grow that performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, consistently rewarding the cultivator with a high yield. Its genetic influence is evident in the lineage of its notable offspring, Grape Gazoo.
The chemical profile of The Great Gazoo is defined by a complex arrangement of terpenes, led by a dominant concentration of myrcene. This base is supported by significant levels of pinene, caryophyllene, and beta-pinene, followed by limonene, terpinolene, and humulene. The aromatic complexity is rounded out by trace amounts of bisabolol, guaiol, and ocimene, which contribute to a distinct sensory experience characteristic of this THC-dominant hybrid.
Upon consumption, users typically report feelings of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These effects position the strain as a viable candidate for addressing concerns related to stress, pain management, and sleep support. As a THC-dominant cultivar, The Great Gazoo serves as a reliable genetic contributor for future breeding projects, cementing its status through its direct link to progeny such as Grape Gazoo.

Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Russo 2011: acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (IC50 0.44 mM) counteracting THC-induced short-term memory deficits; most widely encountered terpenoid in nature; anti-inflammatory via PGE-1.
