Outdoor yield

Outdoor yield depends on plant size, sun, and season. A plant in a 30 gallon pot in full sun can yield 800 grams. A plant in native soil can yield 1000 grams or more. In northern states, harvest is late September to October 15. In southern states, harvest is October 1 to October 31. Rain during flower can cause bud rot. Cover plants or move pots under shelter in week 7 and later.

Top plants at node 5. This creates 4 main tops. Top again at node 8 for 8 tops.
Use low stress training. Tie branches to the pot rim. This makes an even canopy.
Keep temperature at 75 to 80 F in veg. Keep temperature at 68 to 75 F in flower.
Keep humidity at 60% to 70% in veg. Keep humidity at 40% to 50% in flower.
Feed nitrogen in veg. Switch to phosphorus and potassium in flower. Use 1.5 to 2.0 EC in veg. Use 1.8 to 2.2 EC in flower.
Defoliate at day 21 of flower. Remove leaves that block bud sites. Do not remove more than 20% of leaves.
Support branches with a trellis net at week 2 of flower. Branches bend under bud weight.
Flush with plain water for 7 to 10 days before harvest. Check trichomes with a 60x loupe. Harvest when 20% of trichomes are amber.

Common problems

Gorilla Glue #4 has good mold resistance. Still, dense buds trap moisture. Keep air moving. Use a fan. Watch for spider mites and thrips. Inspect leaf undersides each week. Powdery mildew can appear if humidity swings. Keep humidity stable. The strain stretches 2x to 3x in the first 3 weeks of flower. Plan for height. Do not veg too long in a short tent.

Is Gorilla Glue #4 good for beginners?

It is a moderate strain for beginners. It needs training and support. It is not a low maintenance plant. Start with one or two plants. Learn the stretch and feed needs. Then scale up.
