Monkey Glue
Monkey Glue
Also known as: Gorilla Glue #4 (Growers Choice variant), GG4 (Growers Choice)
Overview
Monkey Glue is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (70% indica/30% sativa) that emerged from one of cannabis breeding's most fortunate accidents. Created when a hermaphrodite Chem's Sister plant accidentally pollinated a Sour Dubb, this strain was almost discarded by its breeder before being recognized as a powerful genetic combination. The strain represents a variant of the famous Gorilla Glue #4 genetics, primarily available through seed companies like Growers Choice. The name "Monkey Glue" comes from the strain's extremely high resin production, causing everything - hands, grinders, scissors, and tools - to stick to the plant material during handling. The buds are characterized by their oversized, grape-shaped structure with dusty green coloration, golden undertones, thin golden-amber hairs, and an exceptionally thick coating of bright white trichomes that signal the strain's potency.

Growing Information
Monkey Glue is considered easy to grow and suitable for cultivators of all experience levels, thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments. The strain has a relatively short flowering time of 8 weeks, making it attractive to commercial growers. Indoor yields can reach 500-700g/m² under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can grow 1.5-2m tall and yield up to 800g per plant. The strain shows high resistance to mold and can adapt to both warm and cold climates. Plants tend to stay compact with moderate stretch, finishing about 30% taller than when flowering begins. Maximum height typically reaches around 60 inches (152cm). The strain requires careful handling due to its extreme stickiness, and growers should provide stable climate conditions with proper ventilation to avoid plant stress.
