Gross is a hybrid strain known for its intensely pungent aroma and surprisingly smooth, balanced effects. This cultivar is believed to draw from bold, funk-heavy genetics similar to GMO Cookies and Chemdawg, producing a loud, savory profile that lives up to its name, though its exact lineage is not officially confirmed. Buds are typically dense and sticky, featuring dark green tones with occasional purple hues, bright orange pistils, and a thick, greasy layer of trichomes.
Terpene Profile:
Gross is rich in caryophyllene, myrcene, and humulene, delivering a sharp aroma of garlic, earth, and diesel with strong skunky, savory undertones. The flavor is bold and lingering—funky, umami-like notes on the inhale followed by a peppery, herbal, and slightly gassy finish on the exhale.
Effects:
Gross provides a heavy-hitting high that begins with a hazy cerebral onset, often bringing about a relaxed, introspective mindset. As the experience develops, a deep body relaxation takes over, easing tension without immediately knocking the user out. It’s best suited for low-key settings or unwinding after a long day.
Medical Uses:
This strain is often selected to help manage stress, anxiety, and chronic pain due to its calming and body-heavy effects. It may also assist with inflammation and muscle tension. Additionally, Gross can help stimulate appetite and may benefit patients dealing with nausea or reduced hunger.
