GG4 formerly Original Glue Feminized

GG4 formerly Original Glue is most suitable for intermediate growers due to the need for some training techniques to maximize its yield. However, some of these methods are easy to learn and can be practiced by beginners who are willing to put in the time. Harvesting is also a bit tricky because the buds are exceptionally sticky. These buds have a silvery grey appearance and are dripping with resinous trichomes that will glue your fingers and cutting tools together – a sure sign of GG4’s potency. 

Indoors, it is highly recommended to use the Screen of Green (SCROG) technique during the plant’s vegetative stage. Install a screen or net about 20 cm (8 inches) above the growing medium, either soil or hydroponics. Weave the young stems through the net for a more horizontal direction of growth instead of vertical. This allows an even distribution of light to all the bud sites. The buds will be denser, and the colas will become heavier with resin. Furthermore, the screen provides adequate support that keeps the plant from drooping.

The ideal temperature range for GG4 is between 20 to 30 degrees Celsius (68 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit). Drop the relative humidity (RH) levels as the plant grows, from 60% at the seedling stage to about 40% when it is flowering.

Celebrated for its high THC levels of 26 to 28%, this strain causes a cerebral high and induces euphoria. After the initial rush to the head, a general feeling of relaxation overcomes the body and gives the smoker a chill vibe.

Despite being a balanced hybrid, GG4 delivers a full-body melt and general stoniness that usually ends up in a severe couch-lock. This feeling of relaxed contentment usually lasts for several hours and ends up in deep slumber. Not ideal to be consumed in the morning, it is recommended to be enjoyed on a day off work or at the end of the day. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride!

If vegging out is your goal for the day, you may want to try another couch-locking wonder, Northern Lights Fast Fem. This 100% Indica strain is highly touted for its deep muscle relaxation effects. Even in low doses, just a few puffs give an aura of well-being and lightness. This fast-flowering strain is best grown in warm climates under full sunlight to produce about 100 grams (3.5 ounces) of bud per plant. Indoor growing is also possible using 600-watt grow lights to harvest approximately 500 grams (17.5 ounces) per square meter. This may not seem like much, but the flowering period is only 6 to 7 weeks – perfect when you are in a rush.
