5 Cannabis Strains to get in 2025 – Gorilla Greens Dispensary

Introduction

As 2025 approaches, Canada’s cannabis landscape is evolving rapidly. Consumer tastes are shifting, focusing more on bold flavors, unique terpene profiles, and balanced effects rather than sheer potency alone. Whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or just starting your cannabis journey, knowing which strains will dominate the year ahead can help you stay ahead of the curve.

Here’s our curated list of the Top 5 Cannabis Strains to Watch in 2025 — selected for their flavor, effects, and growing reputation among both experts and everyday users.

Godfather OG – The King of Indicas

Origins & Genetics

Nicknamed "The Don of All OGs," Godfather OG is a legendary indica that crosses XXX OG with Alpha OG. It’s not new to the scene — it famously won Best Indica at the 2013 Cannabis Cup — but its resurgence is thanks to its unmatched potency and reputation for deep relaxation.

Flavor & Aroma

Expect a bold, kushy aroma with hints of spice and a subtle touch of grape, giving it a more complex nose than your average OG strain.

Effects

If you’re looking for a strain that knocks you out, this is it. Godfather OG delivers heavy sedation, making it a popular choice for insomnia, chronic pain, and stress relief. This is nighttime bud at its finest.

Terpene Profile

  • Myrcene (sedation and body relaxation)

  • Caryophyllene (spicy notes and stress relief)

  • Limonene (subtle citrus and mood enhancement)

Flavor & Aroma

Expect a sweet candy burst upfront, followed by a wave of diesel funk and a creamy finish. It’s the kind of complex flavor that experienced smokers chase.
