Great strain. Knocks me right out. Tastes kind of like pine but It's delicious though. Smells like wood!

Silverback is one of the best strains I've found for serious pain management. The earthy taste isn't my favorite, but a few minutes vaping silverback and pain is gone (both pain from inflammation and pain from nerve damage). It is more drying than many, so have water on hand, but this strain will give one a good night's pain-free sleep.
This is my go-to strain for treating insomnia. Silverback Gorilla puts me to sleep straight away, and not in that gross, groggy, narcotic way that you get from sleeping pills. It's more like, you feel genuinely cozy and comfy in your own bed, and your whole body drinks up sleep like a sponge soaking up delicious brandy. I always sleep soundly after a hit of Gorilla, and my iPhone's sleep monitor data has shown it to be true: a deeper sleep, no tossing and turning, and very little snoring, always waking up to feel genuinely rested the following morning.
Needless to say, this is a nighttime strain, BUT, I will also mention that I once had an ***amazing*** orgasm while high on it. I'm an asexual individual who's suffered from depression for years, and frankly I have very little excitement going on between my legs. I literally just DON'T get horny. But one night I vaped a hit of the Gorilla and moments later I was spontaneously aroused to the point of getting myself off, and it was INCREDIBLE... the kind of long, slow delicious, full-body, 4th-of-July fireworks orgasm I've only ever had before while having sex with another person. And after it was over I laid there and laughed deliriously for a good five minutes. So, if you're looking for a strain that will enhance your sexual experience, GET DOWN WITH THE SILVERBACK GORILLA and see what happens. Just be aware that you'll probably fall straight asleep afterwards.
And oh yeah, this flower LOOKS amazing — black petals with a fine silvery fuzz, just like the creature it's named after. And the SMELL is a heady, musky, animal smell, very powerful and earthy. You may find yourself huffing it even at times when you're not smoking it. A truly magical herb!
Looking for a strain to knock your ass out after a long day or in the office, or as an insomnia sufferer? Silverback is the strain for you. To this day it is the one and only strain that puts me out for the night with just one hit, making an 8th last forever, so the bang for your buck on this strain is really worth it. Really, don't try to toke on this before you have something to do for the day, because you won't be getting it done.
Fantastic strain for relaxing and sleeping and just generally quieting your brain so you can receive. Very euphoric too so you go to bed happy and ready for good dreams.
First of all, I was told it was a sativa, and it definitely felt like it (although I took a LOONG nap once it started wearing off). Anyways, it made me really horny at first, lol. I was also paranoid about my throat closing up.

This is a strain you can start to see shit on. It's like a true psychedelic weed if you smoke enough of it, which isn't much if you get good bud. Simply, this will fuck you up in a good life-changing way. Enjoy, space hoes.
This strain is everything I’ve been searching for! I have adhd, so I’ve spent a lot of nights with a racing mind unable to sleep or stay asleep. I knew I needed an indica, but I really didn’t want one that had any cerebral energy or severe munchie side effect. Strictly just wanted some sleep. This is it! I rolled it up and only smoked half a doob before laying down. My mind was flooded with positive thoughts but not in an over-energetic way. Almost like I was dreaming but awake. Next thing I knew I was waking up this morning. I haven’t slept that long or solid in probably years. I feel amazing! Highly recommend for insomnia and depression.
