Origin 1: Credited to Growing Pains, a Michigan craft cultivator. A cross of Gelato and Zkittlez with an undisclosed third parent. That lineage shows up immediately in the aroma — a loud, gassy fuel note hits first, then gives way to layers of creamy fruit that linger well after the jar is closed. The flavor lands somewhere between thick bubblegum and sharp diesel with a smooth, velvety finish. Consumers frequently describe a heavy, full-body relaxation that settles in quickly and builds toward couch-lock as the session goes on, with an initial wave of euphoria and lightheadedness that fades into a sleepy, contented calm.
Origin 2: Bred by Serge Cannabis. A cross of Zkittlez with (Sherb x Zkittlez Bx2) — sharing only the Zkittlez parent with the Growing Pains cut, with the rest of the genetics coming from a Sherb-backcrossed line, giving it a creamier, more sherbet-adjacent character. This is also the version used to create Zyrup OG (Church OG x Zyrup), so if you're seeing "Zyrup OG" on a shelf, it traces back to this Serge Cannabis lineage specifically, not the Growing Pains version.
The two versions share Zkittlez genetics, but that's where the clean overlap ends. Growing Pains' Zyrup is the better-documented choice for consumers chasing gassy fruit and heavy, progressively sleepy relaxation, while Serge Cannabis' version follows a creamier Sherb-backcrossed line and serves as the parent of Zyrup OG. Same syrupy name, different recipe—check the producer before assuming the genetics, flavor, or effects carry from one version to the other.
