Gastro Pop was created from a cross of Apples & Bananas and Grape Gas—two strains also created by Chris Lynch. Below we’ll shine a light on both parent strains.

Apples & Bananas, Gastro Pop’s first parent, is a beloved strain in its own right. Combining genetics from Now N Later and Jet Fuel Gelato, Apples & Bananas boasts deliciously fruity aromas with bold notes of, you guessed, apples and bananas, as well as hints of cherries and strong gassy overtones. Its flavor is also dominated by notes of apples and bananas, tied together with full-bodied and slightly earthy cookie/pastry notes. Apples & Bananas flowers are a little airy and spear-shaped, with stunning purple colors, and deliver a heavy head high with a light, relaxing body buzz.

Gastro Pop’s second parent, Grape Gas, is a heavy-handed indica-dominant strain that combines Grape Pie and Jet Fuel Gelato genetics. As its name suggests, Grape Gas has a dank aroma that couples sweet grape notes with pungent diesel overtones. Its flavor is similar, mixing grape with bold berry sweetness and a strong, sour note reminiscent of dank diesel. Grape Gas flowers have a very dense structure with a vibrant mix of bright green, deep purple, and fiery orange hues, all under a frosty layer of trichomes. Its effects are deeply relaxing, mixing a warm body buzz with an uplifting cerebral high.

Gastro Pop is a very potent cannabis strain, producing between 23–30% THC.
