Mighty Glue

Mighty Glue is a mostly indica hybrid with some seriously relaxing and pain-relieving properties. Created by the breeders at The Farm Genetics in Colorado, Mighty Glue is a cross between Sour Bubble and the notorious Glue OG. It offers smokers a rich, complicated flavor to accent its deep and slow-moving effects. Mighty Glue’s THC content ranges from 17% to 21%.

Flowers of Mighty Glue are average in size and have a flared, spade-like shape. The internal structure of these buds shows clear indica influences, with the short, broad leaves curling closely inward. The leaves are a pale sage green that is made even paler by the presence of several milky trichomes. Finally, curly orange pistils twist their way through the nooks and crannies of Mighty Glue’s craggy buds.

Once cured, Mighty Glue gives off a dank, earthy scent that may bring to mind incense or damp soil. A second inspection may allow you to pick up on some tart notes of berry. When these dense flowers are broken apart or ground up, they can give off more of a sour, tangy odor, likely due to the double dose of Sour Bubble in the strain’s genetics. Burning Mighty Glue in a pipe or a joint gives off a thick, astringent smoke that’s liable to tickle the sinuses and palate. On the exhale, this smoke tastes sour with some mildly fruity flavors.

Like many other indica dominated strains, Mighty Glue has a gradual onset. After about 10 or 15 minutes, smokers may experience an increased blood pressure around the temples, along with some flushing in the cheeks. Once adjusted, consumers may find themselves eased into an especially thoughtful mood, with certain concepts occupying more of their attention than usual. This mental stimulation can inspire creativity and may facilitate everything from brainstorming to crafting projects. In social settings, this head buzz can result in chattiness and friendly vibes. Mighty Glue can also create some strange sensory distortions, leading smokers to experience trippy phenomena like time dilation or mild hallucinations. Those who are so inclined can amplify these sensations with media like an atmospheric playlist or a visually impactful movie.

Within an hour, Mighty Glue begins to exert effects that are much more body-focused. A heavy feeling in the limbs and core may start to make physical exertion difficult, which can derail the earlier mental energy. Consumers may feel some relief from any aches and pains, or may be able to breathe more deeply. If dosage is increased, Mighty Glue can live up to its name by pinning smokers in place with total body melt. Because of its slow decline into sedation, this strain is recommended for consumption later in the day.

Mighty Glue’s slow-moving properties are valuable to medical cannabis patients. It’s soothing euphoria can be a boon to those suffering from stress, depression, and anxiety. It also helps with physical pain, whether it’s acute and due to minor injury, or chronic and tied to serious conditions like COPD or lupus. Anti-inflammatory properties, may lessen the severity of everyday complaints like cramps and headaches. In a totally relaxed setting, Mighty Glue can lull insomniacs to sleep. Because it isn’t likely to bring about any intense, obsessive patterns of thought, this strain is a good choice for patients who have a low THC tolerance.

Unfortunately for those looking to grow it at home, The Farm has not made seeds of Mighty Glue available online. Prospective growers should take clipping for mature, healthy plants that can be fostered as “clones.” This strain can be cultivated indoors or outdoors, in a humid, Mediterranean-like climate. True to their indica roots, plants grow short and bushy; growers may need to “top” their crops from time to time by trimming away any broad, light-blocking fan leaves. When grown indoors Might Glue flowers within 8 to 9 weeks.

A luxurious, long-lasting indica, Mighty Glue is just what the doctor ordered for winding down at the end of a long day of work.
