The staff at my local dispensary suggested this strain for my Lupus and Fibromyalgia pains. I was not disappointed. The first time I tried this flower I had had a bad episode earlier that day. My body was wracked with pain and my muscles were so cramped that I was also having deep tissue spasms and twitches. My pain did not completely diminish. However my pain level went from not being able to function or speak to a 3. That is better than any prescription medication I have ever tried.
Now be forewarned that I could not have functioned in a public capacity for I was so relaxed and in a meditative state and basically in a incoherent state to deal with the rational of society.
So when the description says "only" use this medicine at night before bed, heed the warning and go by the recommendation. Other than that I enjoyed the relaxation and almost lack of pain.
Even my vertigo went to the wayside.
Silverback Gorrila is one strain the I can definitely say gets me really aroused when I smoke it. I also walked around a fair bit feeling really wise, and felt none of my usual depression or anxiety. The one thing I can say about it though, is that it made me NEED water very badly, so I would reccommend smoking this only if you have lots to drink on hand.
My absolute favorite Indica, especially for those who suffer from insomnia! I wake up the next day feeling rested and not groggy.

Incredibly powerful indica (though more technically a high indica dominant hybrid). Much like its namesake, it is too strong for its own good - which makes it exceptional. Also tough to find this in its authentic form. But when you do find it, you'll know once you wake up scratching your head! As an aside, I'm shocked at the ratings given here by users who simply don't enjoy a particular effect like sleep-inducing or hunger or even psychedelic impacts. That's a user specific issue and the strain should not be denigrated accordingly. I'm more of a sativa fan, and don't particular enjoy being glued to the couch, but for an indica with some horsepower, this deserves 5 stars. That's what an indica is supposed to do.
I got this at the HT CC as Veganic Silverback Grape Ape from Buds and Roses and it was fn great! The effects of the indica and haze strangely don't overlap. I felt the deep body pain relief as well as the dreamy head change. Usually hybrids, for me, have the effect of the dominant strain, but Silver Back Gorilla was balanced. Great strain! Will be making the drive when I run out.
My budtender told me there was a sale on certain strains that were 25/eighth, so I reluctantly walked over (cause that's usually the weaker/older buds) but was fascinated to find that these weren't inferior strains by any means. I picked this one cause the name is fantastic and I love gorillas. As soon as I got home I smoked a bowl to unwind; and boy did I! It's a perfect blend of indica/sativa effects with my head flying and my body sedated. I can feel the music playing and my mood has become increasingly cheerful. I love the taste and high!
Instead of grabbing you by the arm and dragging you around it's wading pool, this Silverback Gorilla sits your ass down and keeps you there until you're ready to go to sleep.
lovely
