According to reputable sources on legend, the Gary Payton cannabis strain was named at the end of an “arduous” breeding process.

The twentieth-generation great-grandbaby plant was knighted with the famous NBA player’s full name for standing “head and shoulders above the rest” of its siblings.

Which cannabinoids will I see in Gary Payton?

Alongside THC, Gary Payton does not contain traceable amounts of CBD and often contains 1% of CBG.

No matter the THC level, Gary Payton gets you high, okay?
