Gorilla Glue #4 Seeds

Genetics & effects

Gorilla Glue #4 is a feminised hybrid created from Chem Sister × Sour Dubb × Chocolate Diesel. Its 60% indica and 40% sativa balance is associated with vigorous growth, dense flowers and generous resin coverage. THC is listed at 18–28%, while CBD is listed at 0–1.5%, with final expression influenced by phenotype and growing conditions.

Earthy pine and herbal notes lead the flavour profile, followed by sour diesel character. Beta-caryophyllene, myrcene and limonene are the prominent listed terpenes. Experiences are subjective, but many describe an initially euphoric and uplifting mood that gradually settles into deep relaxation and a heavy-bodied sensation. Its bold aroma and layered flavour make it a favourite among growers seeking a classic diesel-forward cultivar.

Growing in Australia

Gorilla Glue #4 is rated as an intermediate grow. It is best suited to hot, dry or temperate Australian climates, with good airflow especially important as flowers gain weight. For seasonal outdoor cultivation, planting during spring from September to November gives plants time to establish before summer. Local temperatures, humidity and daylight hours will influence timing and structure.

The feminised format is designed to produce predominantly female plants, making it a practical option within a planned growing space. Growers exploring comparable formats can browse feminised seeds in the catalogue.

Indoor

Indoors, plants generally reach around 100–160 cm. The expected flowering period is approximately 8–9 weeks, with listed yields of 450–600 g/m² under suitable conditions. Early canopy management can help keep growth even and improve light distribution across flowering sites.

Branches may require support as buds become denser. Maintain steady air movement, avoid prolonged excess humidity and allow enough space between plants to reduce mould risk. Carbon filtration may also be worth considering because the sour, earthy and diesel aroma can become pronounced during flowering.

Outdoor

Outdoors, Gorilla Glue #4 commonly reaches 130–170 cm, depending on container size, soil conditions and exposure. Listed yields range from 500–750 g per plant where the season is favourable. Choose a sunny, sheltered position with well-draining soil and enough room for lateral branching.

In humid or changeable areas, regularly inspect dense flower clusters and remove damaged plant material. Strategic pruning can improve airflow through the centre of the plant, while sturdy stakes or ties can help branches carry late-season weight.

Harvest

Australian outdoor harvest generally falls between March and May. Exact readiness varies by latitude, planting date and phenotype, so visual flower maturity is more useful than the calendar alone. Indoor plants typically finish after the listed 8–9-week flowering window. Handle mature flowers carefully to preserve resin, aroma and colour, then dry them slowly in a dark, ventilated environment before storage.
