Auto Gorilla Glue

Auto Gorilla Glue by Cartel Seeds is an autoflowering feminized strain based on the legendary Gorilla Glue #4 crossed with Ruderalis. The genetics retain the characteristic aromatic profile of the original: earth, pine, diesel with distinct notes of chocolate and coffee. The plants are medium-sized, which is convenient for a variety of growing conditions.

Autoflowering means photoperiod independence: the plant goes into flowering on an internal timer, not a change in daylight hours. For Auto Gorilla Glue, this transition occurs approximately 3-4 weeks after germination, and the full cycle from seed to harvest takes 9-11 weeks.

Genetics and origin of the variety

Gorilla Glue #4 is one of the most recognizable American strains of the last decade, known for its dense resinous buds and complex terpene profile. Cartel Seeds crossed this genetic with Ruderalis to convey the autoflowering properties without significantly losing the character of the original.

Feminized seeds produce female plants with a very high probability. This eliminates the need to determine gender early on and allows for more efficient use of space.

Aromatic and flavor profile

Auto Gorilla Glue's profile is built on several distinct layers. The first is the earthy and coniferous, characteristic of the GG#4 genetics. On top of that is a sharp diesel accent that adds depth. The picture is completed by chocolate and coffee shades, which make the aroma more complex and warmer compared to classic coniferous varieties.

This profile is shaped by the plant's terpenes and depends on growing conditions, maturity at harvest, and drying method. The seeds themselves are neutral - the aroma is revealed in the plant.

How is Auto Gorilla Glue different from the photoperiod version?

Photoperiodic Gorilla Glue #4 requires a 12-hour light day to transition to flowering. The autoflowering version does not require this - it will flower regardless of light conditions. This shortens the overall cycle and simplifies planning, but autoflowers are generally less sensitive to training and require a more careful approach to stress techniques.

The average plant height of Auto Gorilla Glue makes it more compact than most photoperiod versions of GG4, which is important when space is limited.

How to choose a packaging option

Cartel Seeds offers Auto Gorilla Glue in several packaging options. If you are a first-time grower or want to test the strain, choose the smaller package. For regular cultivation or if you are already familiar with the strain, the larger package is more cost-effective than a single seed.

Store seeds in a dark, dry, and cool place - in the original packaging or an airtight container. Under the right conditions, germination will last for several years.
