About Gooberry
Gooberry is a classic Pacific Northwest indica powerhouse bred by crossing three foundational titans: pure landrace Afghani, DJ Short's Blueberry, and Northern Lights. The cultivar produces stout, resin-soaked colas with dense forest-green and violet-tinged calyxes covered in sticky amber trichomes. The aroma is rich, sweet, and earthy—combining ripe wild blueberries, sweet pine resin, spicy Afghani hashish, and damp forest floor. Consuming Gooberry delivers an immediate wave of tranquil euphoria that quickly gives way to a heavy, full-body couchlock that relieves severe muscle tension, chronic pain, and insomnia.
