Nice setup and with 4000watts I’m sure your girls will love it. Happy growing looking forward to bud shotsI have to say, this is an amazing thread! Everyone's glues look fantastic, even the s1's, x's and "unconfirmed" cuts.
I have the real deal, luckily had it sent here to brighten up the World a little bit in Eastern Kentucky (we always need that!) from a highly reputable member of ICmag.
I started reading on this thread a month or so back, got distracted with life...and my current grow. But tonight I read from page one through the end. Out of 21 clones, 6 of my plants are gg4's. They definitely all had crazy twisting in the leaves in the beginning, thanks to HydroRed I figured out that it is only the glues signature. Red vein stems and all, it's a very beautiful plant for sure! I am currently 23 days into 12/12 on my first run with her, she is under 4000 watts of HPS in 5 gal grow bags and beneath a scrog net.
Things I have learned about the glue is that she is most definitely a Cal-Mag whore! She is a heavy drinker and feeder compared to the rest of the plants in the room. No matter how much I feed her, usually 3/4 strength every watering which is every 2 days, all she gets is a little burnt leaf tips.. I am pushing her to her max, she is staying vibrant, healthy and green.
Her buds are stacking great now ad stretch has finally seemed to come to a stall. I dosed Nirvana and True Blooms early on and this significantly reduced my stretch and in turn gave me fuller flower development. Both of those products contain natural PGR's and they obviously work great. I do anywhere from 4 to 5 no of Nirvana every feeding, 1ml of true blooms and then twice a week I foiliar spray them with 1.5 ml of true blooms.
Honestly, I don't want to jinx it, but I am pretty sure that I have her dialed in on my very first run! Happy to see what is to come of this glue, I know she has been around a while but not here in Kentucky, not in my hometown anyway.. Defintiely brings new fire to the table for sure!
I have no closeups of her since starting the flowering cycle, but I plan on getting those soon and sharing them. Here is 3/4 of my room... Gg4's are in the very back of the room behind the SD Corey's, Headbangers, 413 Chems and Skunk VA Chem' 91.

I forgot to add... This is my first time experimenting with scrog as well, reason only back half of room is scrogged and the front isn't. Not only are those plants scrogged, they are LST'd as well. This greatly assisted with the reduction in stretch. Believe me, my main focus was on keeping all plants short as I only have 6ft 3 inch ceilings and that isn't including the lights!... So far so good and I'm not seeing anymore indicators of any plants stretching anymore.
Thanks Crippy! Yeah they all seem to be staying pretty healthy thus far. I am using Sensi Bloom a&b, open sesame, Cal-Mag, budswell, earth juice catalyst, molasses, true blooms, big bud, nirvana and b52 as of right now. A hell of a list lol and I'm sure most of that they don't even need, but in all honesty it is working great for me so far.Nice setup and with 4000watts I’m sure your girls will love it.

Ps. The ladies are looking healthy AF
I looking for a good a&b feed I’ll check out the Sensi one you mentionedThanks Crippy! Yeah they all seem to be staying pretty healthy thus far.

A hell of a list lol and I'm sure most of that they don't even need, but in all honesty it is working great for me so far.
This is my first time running a 4000 watt grow, first run in my new underground set up as well. Usually I am running 1600 to 1800 watts, so this is all kind of new to me. I am loving my new grow op and I also have a separate veg room and currently have 3 gg4 mothers that reside there. So I'm glad I read the part about taking cuts from the tops of the plants cause I was just getting ready to take some either tonight or tomorrow.
Will keep updated brother and definitely can't wait to throw down some frosty stanky bud porn! Won't be long
Man a lot and I mean A LOT of people down advanced nutrients, mostly due to their marketing techniques and how they pretty much tell you that you literally need their a&b formula along with every other addictive they make which a bunch... Like 12 or so, if I were guessing. You don't need "all" of it. Advanced Nutrients is a great choice, I have tried almost every other brand you can possibly imagine and always fall back to AN in the long run. They may be expensive, but not much more than their competitors really. You can see in my photos just how well advanced works...I looking for a good a&b feed I’ll check out the Sensi one you mentioned
That's unbelievably Frosty! Reading up on gg cuz I've got my first one hitting 60 days on the 12th, & I see 63 and 70 days recommended to harvest, so I'm going to take the tops at 63 and the Second Harvest at 70 and see if there's a difference (assuming the trikes look ripe enough of course, first run so don't know what to expect?) great info, thanks!Harvested @63 days. Her bud will destroy a cheap grinder real quick haha

it will hermieI aquired a cut of what was said to be Gorilla Glue #4. From what I have picked up on the web and from talking with other growers I believe I may have a legit cut. How can you know with any kind of certainty what you have if you arent able to trace back to momma? Are there any traits or characteristics to this strain that says "this is GG#4"? I have her bushed out now and ready to take clones from. I have heard through the grapevine that here in MI there are legit cuts going around as well.
I kinda want to get some input on the strain first from those on here who truly know the real cuts, then I'll post my pictures of mine in veg and let you decide. This plant certainly has very distinct characteristics about it I will mention also.
I've been running it for over two years and not a nanner or ball sack yet. I stressed it out the first cpl times I ran it too. This plant has been bullet proof for me.it will hermie
I've ran her since 2014, never seen her hermi either.I've been running it for over two years and not a nanner or ball sack yet. I stressed it out the first cpl times I ran it too. This plant has been bullet proof for me.
My clone only gg4 don't like being clonedBro she's well worth it. Main reason why I as trying to help with your cloning issues with her cus she's great in every category except flop city lol but tbh like others have said that's good in a sense. Strong fibers have more of the hemp trait and we don't want that in these plants have you had any rooting issues since you have a new mom?
Where are you located ? Maine ?Someone want to link a cut? Haha I dream of having the glue one day!
