Strain Type - Indica-Dominant Hybrid
With 70% indica and 30% sativa, Grease Monkey is a true indica-dominant hybrid with powerful effects and a delicious smell and taste that will keep you coming back for more.
That strong indica energy is responsible for this strain’s legendary reputation for inducing a floaty, dreamy vibe that will make you feel like a pat of butter gently melting over a baked potato. It’s a blissful high that pairs beautifully with the enlivening effects of the sativa genetics for a subtle uplift.
Lineage
Grease Monkey is a cross between two hybrid strains: Cookies & Cream and Gorilla Glue #4. It was created by Exotic Genetix, who wanted a delightful hybrid that could bring the best both its ancestors had to offer.
Cookies & Cream lends Grease Monkey its delicious, sweet flavor and long-lasting power. GG4 delivers the legendary potency and Grease Monkey’s sleepy, sedating effects. The distinctive combination of these strains in Grease Monkey will have you floating on cloud 9.
