Gushers
Also known as: White Gushers, White Gusherz, Fruit Gushers, TK41
Overview
Gushers is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (60% indica, 40% sativa) bred from Gelato #41 and Triangle Kush. Created by affiliates of the renowned Cookies Fam collective in San Francisco in the 2010s, this strain emerged during the "candy strain craze" alongside varieties like Zkittlez and Runtz. The strain gets its name from the popular candy due to its sweet and fruity flavor profile.
Gushers is visually striking with dense, medium to large buds displaying bright green base notes complemented by purple undertones. Thanks to its thick, frosty coating of trichomes, Gushers not only smells like candy—she looks like it too, which won her the name of White Gushers in some circles. The strain features a delicious and complex aroma that combines bold, upfront cookie notes with earthy and fruity undertones.
The strain has gained significant popularity in legal markets for its unique flavor variations, offering a sweeter, more candy-like profile that's become a favorite among cannabis enthusiasts. It is one of the many strains to come out of the "candy strain craze" and boasts similar sweet fruit aromas, making it a standout in modern cannabis cultivation.
