Real GG#4???

View attachment 3851692 Okay I believe I found the right spot to ask this question. What characteristics should I be looking for to verify if this is GG4 or not. Here's a pic of what I was given 5 weeks in bloom View attachment 3851691

In veg:

Stretch/height with more than average node spacing
leaf twist
purple stems

In flower:
very low leaf/calyx ratio on buds
pungent fuel smell
LOTS of trichomes on flowers/sugar leaves (even on fan leaves)

In your last pic, it looks like there may be a GG vegging in the back? I see some leaf twist going on back there.
Those buds look a lot like my first run of the glue as well. Not quite run to its potential, but you can see it there.

Def GG4 dom bro. Nug structure and lil leaf and high calyx is there she has the look bro. I'm sure smell is there too but you found a good one bro. Got me really wanting to crack a few of these again. What's the nose on it?
its difficult to describe the smell it was kinda sour then after reading your description on the smell went back and found it sweet smelling I guess like milk chocolate but me nose has been stuffed for last 2weeks fighting a cold cant smell or taste shit. I really have no reason to doubt the source. I got these in Seattle problem is I brought back 8 cuts four gg4 and four aj sour d. I had them separate but mix ups happen. none of the sour d rooted 3 of the gg4s are in bloom. ill be smoking the test one in few weeks very excited to say the least.

In my experience, GG4 gives off notes of chocolate and earth early on, with u destined off pungent fuel cat piss. Matured, it's extremely pungent fuel cat piss. Not sweet, by any means.

Probably just the stuffed up sinuses.
yeah at the moment I cant even smell or taste my keeper OG. it sucks cause tasting the bud is key to me. ill update once I can honestly tell

IMG_2474.JPG IMG_2497.JPG Okay this stuff has been drying for a few days just broke up some of the lower buds and it smells like sour diesel without the diesel part. I hope it tastes like it smells. Well gonna smoke what I believe is GG4 for the first time. Happy New Years.

If it's anything like the ones I've tried you are in for a treat, lovely chill on the buzz

It didn't taste like it smelled the flavor I'm getting is more along the line of a cookies cross. It's definitely not citrusy Or OG like. Let's see what a few weeks will do to the smell taste.

Wow, not sure how I missed these updates....
The terpines on mine after the cut had a citrus zest to them, but once dried/cured it exhibited no citrus smell or taste at all. Strong fuel smell/taste with a strong cat piss like odor even after 5+ wks of cure in jars. One of my top favorite smokes along with Kosher Kush from Reserva Privada. Shes a hard one to travel with without giving yourself away on the smell. @ 60 days the buzz gets me super chill and lazy. I can f#ck up a bag of Fritos too after smoking haha

0-10, would you consider glue to be a yielder? I'd say 7 or 8 maybe... I've gotten over a lb per plant on her, and so has a buddy of mine. But, another friend is really having trouble getting any serious yields on her.

What growing technique/type do you think facilitates the best production from this strain? I've had great success with long veg times and scrog with tons of support. I've seen others do great with SOG and no veg clones.

Just curious to see what y'all think.

By cat piss smell do you mean ammonia like smell? I'm not getting that. It's hard to describe I'm gonna roll another one up to get a better grasp on her smell and flavor profile all in the name of science.
One thing I did notice she's took longer to dry than other strains I've grown. Here's a pick of dry bud IMG_2524.PNGIMG_2522.JPG
