What are Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower cannabis seeds?
These Gorilla Glue Seeds are the glorious result of crossing the original indica-dominant GG4 strain and a ruderalis cultivar. Unlike photoperiod plants, they flower automatically, paying no heed to light schedule adjustments.
You can expect the same chunky, resin-oozing, THC-rich nugs that made the original Gorilla Glue Strain famous, only a lot quicker. In fact, you can easily accomplish more than two harvests a year, regardless of the season.
The Gorilla Glue Strain cinched first place with countless awards under its belt, including:
- The 2014 Jamaica World Cup
- The 2014 Medical/Cannabis Cup in Michigan
- The 2014 Los Angeles Top 10 Hybrid Awards
- The 2015 Hempcon Cup
- The 2015 World Cannabis Cup
- The 2015 Patient's Choice Awards
- The 2018 Spannabis Cannabis Championship Cup
The Gorilla Glue Seeds retain their predecessor's award-winning qualities but produce more compact marijuana plants. Their size makes them perfect for an indoor setup, but they'll thrive outdoors, too, as long as the climate plays ball.
The Gorilla Glue Strain stays true to its name, with its reputation of clogging up scissors and tools with copious amounts of sticky resin. It's the ideal cultivar for producing concentrates like bubble hash.
With these autoflowering cannabis seeds, it's easy to achieve yield after generous yield throughout the year. With countless Cannabis Cups and other awards under its belt, GG4 has a well-deserved reputation, and these marijuana seeds are no exception.
Nurture them, and they'll reward you with syrupy buds that'll clear the cobwebs, melt the day's worries away, and put a smile on your dial. Feminized, fast-growing, and forgiving, Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower seeds are an excellent choice for beginners and pros alike.
What are the Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower effects?
With their award-winning, indica-leaning genes, Gorilla Glue Seeds promise nugs of the same high caliber (no pun intended). They produce cannabis plants with THC levels in the region of 23–27%. So, start slow and take it easy.
After a single dose, renewed clarity and a sense of serenity replace anxious, stress-ridden thoughts. The weight of the world evaporates, leaving you with cheerful elation and a more optimistic mindset.
A tingling relaxation spreads throughout your body, dispelling tension while easing any discomfort. Your limbs become heavy, and before long, the buds produced by these GG4 autoflower seeds will have you glued to the couch.
That's why the Gorilla Glue Strain is best kept for a lazy weekend or when you're having some well-deserved “me-time” after a long day. Make sure you don't have much to do and keep snacks within reach, though. The chances are that the munchies will kick in, and you'll be too chilled to get up.
After a few hours, you'll drift off to dreamland, making GG4 perfect for bedtime. Don't overdo it though. Too much of this potent bud could worsen dry eyes and cottonmouth or cause bouts of paranoia, anxiety, or dizziness.
What does the Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower smell like?
Whether they derive from photoperiod or auto seeds, Gorilla Glue #4 buds have an unmistakable aroma. At first, they smell like fresh earth laced with kerosene and a sour twist of sweetness.
It may sound odd, but it's one of those scents that leave your mouth watering and your nose wanting another whiff. On the exhale, hints of pine and wood enchant the senses further. The smell of used coffee beans, citrus, and chocolate lingers subtly in the background while a slight tang dances on your tongue.
How to germinate Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower seeds
Ready to germinate your Gorilla Glue Seeds? Follow these simple steps:
- First, you'll need purified or bottled water, paper towels, sterilized tweezers, a dinner plate, and cannabis seeds.
- Wet two paper towels, making sure to remove any excess water.
- Place one on the dinner plate and arrange your marijuana seeds at least an inch apart from each other (use the tweezers).
- Next, place the second paper towel over the cannabis seeds.
- There should be no water at all on the dinner plate.
- Put the plate in a warm, dark place for 24–120 hours.
During this period, make sure that the paper towels never dry out, or your marijuana seeds will die. Once the cannabis seeds have sprouted a healthy taproot, they're ready to be planted.
Be sure to check out our germination guide for full details. You need to follow the instructions precisely to retain your guarantee on the Gorilla Glue Seeds and any other marijuana seeds purchased from us.
Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower seeds grow guide
Whether you want to cultivate Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower seeds in the USA, there are a few fundamentals to keep in mind. Fully grown, these marijuana plants seldom reach more than three feet tall—much smaller than their photoperiod counterparts.
Still, they stay true to their indica genetics with thick foliage, heavy nugs, and broad, fan-shaped leaves. Auto Gorilla Glue Seeds also produce plants with a massive apical cola at their crown. Several clusters of resin-drenched buds grow below that, thickly coated in trichomes.
Come harvest time, they turn frosty white, like a delectable treat dusted in icing sugar. Unlike photoperiod crops, GG4 autoflower plants pay no heed to the light schedule or season. This fact means you don't need to trigger the flowering phase manually, and you can reap those gluey nugs all year long.
With their ruderalis characteristics, they'll begin flowering on their own, 2–3 weeks into the growth cycle. After germinating your auto Gorilla Glue Seeds, you'll only need to wait about 8–9 weeks until they're ready for harvest.
These beans are sturdy and beginner-friendly, but environmental factors still dictate the quality and quantity of your yield. That's why an indoor setup with regulated and maintained conditions is preferable.
This Gorilla Glue Strain needs at least 18 hours of light a day. Anything less can hurt their growth, resulting in a subpar harvest.
If electric bills and heat management aren't an issue, you can even give them 24 hours of light for optimal production. Alternatively, a 20/4 schedule will also help boost growth.
Since they start flowering so quickly, it's wise to protect your GG4 autoflower crops from any potential health risks. They might be pest-resistant, but if they're wasting precious energy recovering from injury or disease, the buds will suffer.
They won't be as fat and juicy, resulting in a disappointing yield.
Keep your Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower plants happy with:
- Temperatures in the range of 70–79°F.
- Relative humidity levels of between 40% at the beginning of the growth cycle and up to 60% in the flowering phase.
- Balanced pH levels ranging from 6.2–6.5 in soil and 5.5–6.1 in hydroponics.
- Grow lights of 600–1,000 watts.
- A nutrient-rich growing medium containing calcium, magnesium, sulfur, potassium, nitrogen, and phosphorus.
A Sea of Green (SoG) setup works well with these marijuana plants too. Done right, you can generate a pretty sweet yield two or more times a year.
How much weight do the auto seeds of Gorilla Glue #4 produce when it comes to bud? You can expect about 14–21 ounces per square meter from healthy crops.
With their ruderalis genetics, Gorilla Glue autoflower seeds can thrive in unforgiving conditions outdoors. In this case, you can expect to harvest by mid-October.
You'll only get a rewarding yield if the environment is favorable, though. Warm, sunny weather in a Mediterranean-like climate is ideal. Use 11–13 gallon pots to maximize yield potential, and you'll harvest anything between 1.7–10.6 ounces of fresh bud per plant.
What is the Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower strain genetics?
The Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower strain boasts an accidental yet celebrated heritage. It's the ultimate manifestation of several much-loved cultivars:
- Chem Sister: A phenotype of the mysterious Chemdawg strain.
- Sour Dubb: Another hybrid said to have derived from the Sour Diesel and Sour Bubble strains.
- Chocolate Diesel: A hybrid with Sour Diesel and Chocolate Thai genetics.
- Sour Diesel: A Super Skunk and Chemdawg 91 blend.
- Northern Lights: A top-shelf hybrid with Afghani and Thai genes.
GG4 autoflower seeds take it a step further, though.
They're the result of crossing the original indica-dominant Gorilla Glue strain with a ruderalis cultivar. This intentional genetic hack is what makes the beans flower according to age rather than the light schedule.
Wellness and Gorilla Glue #4 autoflower seeds
This Gorilla Glue Strain blossoms into plants reaching upward of 20% on the THC scale. Even in small doses, the bud from these beans can provide effective pain relief.
It's not just the psychoactive component that makes GG4 an excellent wellness strain, though. Compounds like limonene, linalool, myrcene, and pinene are said to provide therapeutic effects mirroring that of THC.
Whether they derive from photoperiod or auto seeds, Gorilla Glue buds are believed to contain anxiolytic (relaxing), analgesic, and anti-microbial properties.
Unlike our selection of wellness strains, Gorilla Glue Seeds don't produce CBD-rich plants. Still, the GG4 strain is often used to help manage a variety of conditions, including:
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Depression
- Mood disorders
- Post-traumatic stress disorder
- Bipolar disorder
- Chronic pain
- Muscle spasms
- Arthritis
- Premenstrual syndrome
- Multiple sclerosis
- Migraines
- Rheumatism
With its appetite-inducing effects, the Gorilla Glue Strain can also help treat eating disorders while mitigating nausea and vomiting. Lastly, this cultivar also makes a fantastic sleeping aid. Its sedative effects don't kick in for a few hours, but when they do, you're likely to get some deep, quality shut-eye.
