Strain Overview
Glue 31 #1 is the heavier sister out of Compound Genetics’ Glue 31 pop. She is the same GG4 x Jokerz #31 cross that gave us the #3 pheno, but the #1 leans deeper into the indica side and softens the candy in favor of body weight and old-school fuel. If the #3 is the loud, gas-forward keeper, the #1 is the slow, broad-shouldered one that finishes wide and hits like a sandbag.
This is the cut for growers who want the Glue family weight without the speed. She structures wider and shorter than her sister, holds her color through a slow cure, and pulls a heavier, more sedative ride out of the bag. The Jokerz side is still in there, you can taste it, but it sits underneath instead of riding on top. Bag appeal is dense and frosty, with phenos that purple in cold finish and an almost chrome-like trichome head.

Lineage & History: The Wide-Shoulder Pheno
Compound Genetics ran the Glue 31 cross to bring the GG4 backbone forward in a modern hybrid. GG4 has been the gold standard for trichome density since the early 2010s, and her diesel-funk profile made her a foundation strain for the entire fuel lane. The trade-off has always been the harshness on the smoke and the limit on flavor variety. She is what she is, and she does not bend.
Jokerz #31 fixed that. The Compound house stud, a White Runtz crossed with Jet Fuel Gelato, brings sweetness, candy, and a clean fuel layer that softens any partner without taking weight off the high. When the breeders dropped the Glue 31 pack, the question was which pheno would land. The #3 came back gas-first and candy-second. The #1 came back with the order flipped on its head, deeper body, softer candy, and a finish that sat lower on the palate.
Heavy hitters started locking the #1 in for the indica lean. She has built a quiet collector following on the East Coast where smokers tend to want their nighttime hybrids on the heavier side. If you have run the #3 already, the #1 will feel like the same plant in a different gear. Same family, slower car.
Flavor & Aroma
The first note is fuel. Old GG4 funk, sharp on the front, sour on the edges, the kind of nose that fills a room. Underneath that the Jokerz pulls up sweet but soft, more like a melted candy than a fresh one, with a creamy back end that the #3 does not carry. Late in the cure a forest-floor earthiness comes up from the myrcene and grounds the whole bouquet.
On the burn she runs cleaner than a straight GG4 and slower than her sister. The fuel is still there, but it sits in the back of the smoke instead of the front. The candy fills the middle, the cream rounds out the back, and the exhale is clean with a soft pepper note from the caryophyllene. She runs cool through glass, packs heavy in a bowl, and burns down even with very little canoe risk.
For hash she presses to a dark amber rosin that holds the cream and the fuel in a way the #3 does not. The terps run lower in volume but deeper in body, which makes her a quiet favorite among solventless heads who want a smooth dab over a loud one. Live rosin shows the candy clearer than the dry flower. Both formats are worth the run.
Effects & What to Expect
She comes on slow and stacks deep. First fifteen minutes you get a soft head settle, a touch of giggle, and the body weight starting to roll in from the shoulders down. Half an hour in the indica side is fully in the driver’s seat. The cerebral side is present but quiet, more of a warm fog than a clear buzz, and the body buzz takes over the rest of the ride.
This is a sit-down hybrid. Use her at night, on a couch, with the lights low and nothing on your calendar. She is too heavy for a working afternoon and too smooth for a wake-and-bake. Tolerance smokers respect her because the body weight stays steady for two to three hours. Newer smokers should go light because she stacks fast and the indica lean will floor a smaller dose than expected.
The come-down hands you straight to sleep if you let it. No fog the next morning, no hangover, just a clean fade. She is the strain you reach for when the day is over and the only thing left on the list is a movie and a plate.
Growing Glue 31 #1
She runs shorter and bushier than the #3, which is a meaningful difference if you have limited vertical space. Through veg she stays compact, bushes hard from the lower nodes, and stretches roughly 1.5 to 1.8x in the first three weeks of flower. Top her at the fourth node, run a SCROG, and let her fill the screen because she throws a tight, even canopy with very little fluff. Tip: she likes a longer veg than her sister, give her another week and she will reward you.
She is a moderate feeder with a slight Cal-Mag preference. The GG4 side wants steady calcium and magnesium through the whole flower cycle, so dial in your Cal-Mag early and do not let it slip. Watch your nitrogen in late veg because she will go dark green fast and the leaves will get clawed if you push her. Move into PK-heavy nutrition by week 3 of flower and she rewards you with dense, glassy buds and a heavy resin coat. Tip: she colors up at lower temps, so drop nighttime by 10 to 15 degrees in the last two weeks if you want purple.
In late flower she stays cleaner than the #3, with less risk of bud rot because the buds run slightly less dense and the canopy breathes easier. Keep RH below 55% to be safe. Defoliate once mid-flower and once again in the last two weeks. She finishes in 8 to 9 weeks indoor, with day 56 giving you the brightest candy expression and day 63 giving you the deepest body and the heaviest stone.
Yields run strong. Expect 1.6 to 2 grams per watt indoor with a clean canopy. Outdoor she finishes late September to early October and handles a humid climate better than most of the Glue family because of her airflow profile. Cure her three weeks minimum and the cream and candy on the back end keep developing the longer she sits.
