About

Second Generation is a hybrid cannabis strain produced by crossing Gorilla Glue #4 with DJ Short Blue Heaven 13 regular seeds. The pairing brings together two well-regarded genetic lines — one known for its heavy resin production and the other for its refined, complex Blueberry-influenced heritage — resulting in a cross that carries notable potential from both sides of its family tree. Because no detailed terpene or laboratory data has been published for this strain, aroma and flavor characteristics are best understood through the lens of its parentage. Gorilla Glue #4 typically contributes earthy, diesel, and chocolate-tinged notes, while DJ Short Blue Heaven 13 is associated with sweet, fruity, and floral qualities. Users of Second Generation can reasonably expect some interplay of these profiles, though individual phenotypes selected from regular seeds may express either parent more prominently depending on the particular plant. Commonly reported experiences with strains carrying this kind of lineage tend toward a strong, full-bodied effect that users describe as deeply relaxing and mentally heavy. The Gorilla Glue #4 side is widely associated with pronounced sedation and a lasting, weighty physical sensation, while the Blue Heaven 13 contribution is often described as adding a more euphoric or uplifting quality to the onset. The balance between these tendencies will likely vary across phenotypes. On the cultivation side, growers working with Second Generation should keep in mind that these are regular seeds, meaning both male and female plants will be present in any given batch. This makes the strain particularly relevant for breeders and those looking to make selections, as regular seeds preserve the genetic diversity and breeding potential that feminized or autoflowering seeds cannot provide. Growers should plan for sexing plants during the early weeks of the flowering phase. The Gorilla Glue #4 heritage suggests a tendency toward vigorous growth and heavy trichome coverage, though specific yield figures, flowering times, and grow-environment recommendations have not been formally documented for this cross. From a breeding standpoint, Second Generation occupies an interesting position as a meeting point between two distinct but complementary genetic traditions. Its regular seed format makes it a practical starting point for breeders seeking to work with the combined traits of its parent strains and develop stable lines further downstream.
