Real GG#4???
- Thread starter HydroRed
- Start date
What EC are you guys feeding her at? She will stack a lot better at a bit lower EC than one would think. Also those golf ball flowers come with a bit to much N in flower for her, usually cal-mag supplements can be the culprit.
Not talking shit though they all look flame! Also jack your calcium up and separate it from your mag supplements. Its the calcium more than the mag, especially in veg. This will also avoid hollow stems.
I'm a little behind yall on mine...

Thanks for droppin in!
I was about 450-500 ppm on this run. I ran her a bit light on N in veg on my first run with her and she stalled out quick and went full yellow on me at like week 6. You shoulda seen my first run
Im looking at approx 8 zips on 5 plants under 400W COB LED in a 4x3 flood/drain table. Flowered right from 8" rooted clones with no veg time.
I'll post back when I'm all dried and jarred with a dry weight. Til then.....

I backed off quite a bit myself. This latest run is just slightly lighter in color at the bottom.
I am tryna get these giant colas I be seeing. I can see her leaves are a little more opened up and her stems are way thicker. Looks healthier overall.

Thanks guys! I'm glad I kept her around. Shes gonna be a momma I'm going to keep in the mix for a while. I learn a little more every run, so run 3 leaves me with high hopes of it being even better with a little experience under the belt now.
I had some chocolate flavors and smells on the first run even though it was chopped early but this time it is all fuel piss smell. The terpines when wet trimming were different this time too. Kinda bland the first run compared to this time. It has almost a citrus zest/terpentine smell after cutting the sugar leaves off the colas. Smells are much more pronounced this time around for sure.

Don't worry they'll be repotted shortly LOL They are for a 'friend' (@Grandpapy), can't wait to hear how they turn out.

Quick update and pics
247 g's of dry solid nugs from 5 plants.
All 5 went straight from cloner to flower with no veg time.
400W COB LED over a 44"x33" flood and drain set up.
The rooted clones were about 7-8" when they were flowered.
They got to about 4x that size by harvest.
Just a few g's shy of hitting 9 zips of seriously dank buds.
The smell is off the charts! Harvested at 60 days, the stone is a lazy couch lock so I can only imagine how unmotiviated I'd be if I let it go any longer.

I cant really tell either way in those pics. Not that they are bad pics, but they dont give me any definite details saying yes or no. I dont see any leaf twist, but my experience is limited. Im sure someone more experienced with it will have some input to share.
Your stems look a dead ringer for GG though with the reds in fan stems, reds streaks in the main stalk and spaced nodes. Does the stem feel like its greasy or wet? My GG momma has a greasy wet feeling all the time.

Nah not greasy feeling at the moment. Does have some leaf twist but nothing as substantial as I have seen other places.

@Carolina Dream'n Really hard to gauge from a pic alone, but, if I had money on it, I would say "Nay". While in veg some strains like to grow as stalks , some branch out here and there, and some like to get their branches/branching started early (this is w/o manipulation). In my experience, GG4 throws out branches while it is young. The structure of your plant is not indicative of early GG4 growth. That being said, there isn't any way for us to validate it indubitably by illustration alone. You'll have to finish her, even then it's a "crap shoot"/"shot in the dark". Don't let this discourage you. "Self fulfilling prophecy", if you believe her to be "dank"/special, you will treat her "dank"/special, and you just might end up with something more "dank"/special than GG4 could ever be.
A stem rub might give you an idea. I believe her stem smells of kush funk with a hint of it's finished fuel-doused-cat-piss. I have some vegging now (various stages of growth), so I can give a better description later.
Also very vigorous and a heavy drinker. This, if it is in optimal health.
Side note; I see some minor "scarring". That could be from any number of things, but some spots appear to be, almost certainly, thrip damage. Get on top of that now, before it becomes a major issue.
Good luck and kudos.

Lol at the thrip damage comment. There are absolutely no bugs and have never been any bugs at my spot. These plants were quarantined for 14 days, sprayed 8 times and bombed once before bringing them to the spot.... no bugs.
Thanks though.

@Carolina Dream'n Large fan leaf in the lower right of the pic, from left to right, second blade has possible damage towards the end, middle blade has possible damage (towards stem, left half), last blade was most noticeable (gives off the "sheen of thrip damage"), in the middle.
Again, these things can be difficult to diagnose from pics, I was just giving you a heads up to a potential issue before it gets worse. Quarantine should be longer than the life cycle of pests you're looking to avoid (thrips live longer than 30 days). Regarding spraying, thrips can hide in your grow medium, so unless you're treating that also, your attacks are in vain. Shouldn't "pooh-pooh" any words of advice or warnings of "problems". I won't mention the deficiencies/imbalances visible in the plants in the background, I'm sure that's just my eyes/camera playing tricks on me as well.
Sorry though.
