Gorilla Glue 4 S1 preserves Gorilla Glue 4 rather than crossing it. The cut (one of the most-copied clones of the last fifteen years and the plant that made sheer resin a selling point) was reversed onto itself, so both sides of every seed trace to it. It carries heavy chemical and earth with a sour, piney edge. A clone-only plant has no other way of surviving in seed.

The number in Gorilla Glue 4 is a specific plant, not a decoration. Humboldt CSI grow a population out, keep the individuals worth keeping and number them, so Gorilla Glue 4 is one identified selection rather than Gorilla Glue in general. A pack naming a different number is a different mother.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother and Father: Gorilla Glue 4, selfed. One of the most-copied clones of the last fifteen years and the plant that made sheer resin a selling point.
• What a reversal is for. It puts a clone-only plant into seed without introducing anything foreign. That is preservation work rather than breeding, and it is most of what Humboldt CSI actually do.
• Why self rather than cross. Cross a clone to anything and you get a hybrid of it, not the clone. Reversing it onto itself keeps the parentage on both sides, which is the honest way to put a clone-only cut into seed.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

• The Aroma. Heavy chemical and earth with a sour, piney edge.
• The Taste. Thick and coating with chemical-earth weight and sour pine.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. Gets tall - a hundred to a hundred and thirty centimetres untrained - and stretches hard through the first two to three weeks; dense chunky colas under a resin coat heavy enough to leave fingers sticky; usually needs extra support.
• Vegetative Phase and Training. Open the middle out early. Light reaching the lower sites is worth more than any late correction.
• Flowering Time. Gorilla Glue 4 runs around eight to nine weeks. Start checking trichomes a week before you expect to be ready.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Gorilla Glue 4 as heavy-handed rather than clear; strongly settling.
• The Body. Reported in line with that. This is not a plant described as pulling in two directions.

In the pack

7 feminized seeds per pack. Feminized seeds from Humboldt CSI. The point of their catalogue is access - cuts that otherwise only move between growers who already know each other, put into a form you can actually buy. Sold as authentic Humboldt CSI.
