GG#4

excellent strain, potent

Came exactly as advertised. Nice plant.

Harvest day for round 2 of the GG4 strain. The extra veg time definitely made a difference in how this plant developed. Still happy with this strain, however this will be my last run of GG4. Will update in 7-14 days with dry weight and smoke test. Update 08/25 - dry weight is 157g (minus 3-4 grams for my smoke test). Very happy with the overall weight and smoke, berry/citrus taste and smell. The extra veg time this plant got, compared to round 1, I believe is what made the difference in how much extra bud and weight this girl produced. I have enjoyed growing GG4, she's been a pretty easy strain to grow, minus her hunger, but this will be my last run of this strain for a while, time to try other strains.

GG#4 was a nice easy lady to grow. I was surprised by how much she stretched, by her beautiful colors and by how much dense, sticky, huge and wonderfully smelling buds she produced! Update June 19 - dry weight and initial smoke. Overall I was very happy with how this strain grew and the purple colors that came through the plant and in the buds. Amazing aroma while growing and smoking, a real pleasure to the nose.

Just took her down. Still hanging, overall a decent grow in my opinion. Smells wonderful and fruity in the drying tent. Looks pretty good, shiny buds that are fairly dense. We shall see in a few days after drying, trimming. 5 star as of now, because she still drying...... All dried and sitting in jars for the next couple o weeks. Was very easy to trim, high calyx to leaf ratio ( just read up on that topic, so figured I would use some buzz words lol) snips got gummed up real quick as expected. Didn’t know I couldn’t change the strain rating after an hour, but would have given 8 stars. Not cured yet, so taste will be off a bit but got some nice dense sticky icky buds, burns well, not harsh and looks amazing. Getting more of a citrus pine type smell from the jars, the fruity smells have waned a bit. It’s still pretty early after drying though. Quite happy with just under 4 oz, from this girl. Looking forward to some cure time, but the buzz was very nice, started off feeling gitty, then faded to my couch for some relaxing. Had a great nap. Think I’m going to like the GG#4.

So today was decision day in the garden. This gal has been battling a moderate case of powdery mildew since the beginning of August. High humidities, poor circulation and night temperatures as low as 13c and morning dew all contributed to the problem. I did my best to defoliate, and I went as far as spraying with a mixture of H2O2 and water, to slow it's progression. So I checked the trichomes today and most were milky with a few clear and a few amber, so I decided to pull the trigger. I would normally do a two week flush and 48 hours of darkness, but I was getting nervous about the PM going past the point of no return so I forwent my usual routine. When growing outdoors, PM or not, I think budwashing is an imperative step in the harvesting process. I do a four bucket system. First bucket is 200ml of 3% H2O2 to 5 gallons of water. Second bucket is 1 cup baking soda, 1 cup lemon juice to 5 gallons of water. The final two buckets are just filled with room temp tap water. I do this not only to kill and remove PM, but I find lots of dead bugs, spiders and bits environmental debris. I have never had a problem with potency or flavor after doing this. All most every trace of PM was gone after the wash and whatever is left will get trimmed off once it's dry. At the end of the trim I smoked a nice lump of scissor hash and it was delicious, not to mention it sent me into a different dimension. I don't do wet weights so once I know I'll add dry weight to this diary, but it looks like a pretty good haul.

This is by far the stickiest of the four plants and could end up having the highest yield as well, or if not at least as much as the blueberry. It fox tailed a little bit but the stress of changing the light didn't cause any other problems like with the kushy and the blueberry.

So I can tell you this about it , its very potent . As I was doing some clippings for trich testing they dried and smoked them good taste reminds me of the parent genetic chocolate disele a lot . I was lucky enough to have 2 different phenos in my garden for this go 1 very disel for flavour ( GG#1 ) and the other disel with a hint of chocolate and berries ( GG#2 ) Over all they both yielded well and I dont have any real complaints about that ! They are very strong to mould and pests I did not suffer any problems with that what so ever and I had over watered GG#1 and she still came out quite kick ass ! I would recommend everyone to try growing this strain at least once 😁
