Real GG#4???

[southernguy99]

Thanks, I was blessed with some good genetics. I first began growing in soil/vermiculite but I was new and didnt run it long (or very well lol) before I started building hydroponic setups in the 90's. I havent turned back since. Still have some friends that are in soil/promix.
I can pretty much count on one hand how many times I've tasted a difference between hydro and soil from the same strain. I believe the growers skill will show through the end product more than any medium ever will. Im sure theres folks out there with a more refined taste than mine who may disagree.

So True.

@HydroRed Thanks! I will give it a shot. I currently have a two tent rotation. Thinking about installing a hydro system in the smaller one. I think im just scared because it seems like you can f'up pretty easily in.

I have faith you can do it. Hydro really can be as easy as you make it. Its almost instantaneous in result and more forgiving than soil in a sense. You can honestly get away with just a 1 part nutrient, a pH meter, and a ppm/EC meter. If you know how to read a plant pretty well, you can get away with even less.

Thanks man, appreciated. Much love. Now time to check some tutorial videos on youtube lol

So is this the leaf twist people are talking about in GG4?

Heres some examples of the leaf twist in real GG4. It almost looks as if there is an invisible piece of string attached to one side of the leaf, and it is being pulled up on.


Hope this helps.

You got her dialed in nice.im.getting them colors in the calyx but not the leaves.kinda like a peachy color.very nice

Thanks brother. If this is what you are talking about with "peachy", I know exactly what you mean.

Thats her all day and yes its that peachy kind of color that comes at 6 and a half 7 weeks.I have nothing but good things to say about that cut.I think people with the real deal can really appreciate her when she hits 7 weeks.

I cant help but think when I hear someone say GG4 aint shit....they got a BS cut or some buds from a BS cut that someone wants to think is the Glue. Im impressed by her still to this day, and I've been running her for a minute.

Same here,She checks all the boxes.

Finally got a cut that is supposed to be legit. Had the leaf twist but not the purple in the stem. Has anyone seen a gg4 without the purple streaks? I’ll snap a pic when I get home hopefully the gg connoisseurs here can let me know what they think!

Gorgeous plant. Wonderful all around.

 

[CelestialJourney]

This is my wannabe Glue. Can I get help to determine if she is ready? I believe she might have another week or so left. Shes have been in 12/12 for 60 days

Mine is proving real difficult to dial in. I'm in soil using neptunes fish and seaweed fertilizer with some cal/mag to boost. I'm thinking of switching....any suggestions from some more experienced hands out there?

What do the GG#4 heads think? @HydroRed @Hiesengrow

What do the GG#4 heads think? @HydroRed @Hiesengrow

Im only going by photos Ive seen online but that doesnt seem like a gg4 cut. Those leaves look big imo, but Ive never grown gg4 so Im just going by pics. Cheers man

I dont want to be the downer on anyones party, but Im not really seeing it.

 

[HydroRed]

Best guess will be in flower.

Cant say I've got any soil recipes, but I can advise to feed her higher N during veg and even through stretch in early flower. If you dont she'll "stall out" on you about week 6ish and go yellow early and you wont get the color, terps or yield shes capable of. Just my .02

After I took the pictures the pics don’t look like it but when I have it in the room and didn’t take a bunch of leaves and stuff off it looked like a lot of the pics, the leaves grow almost like a pinwheel on new growth and the older leaves have usually the middle finger one edge lifts up. I unno supposedly came from Marc emery. Who knows lol I’ll post again when vegged out a little more
