4 Assed Monkey Auto

‘4 Assed Monkey’ – those familiar with Mephisto know we don’t just use a name to sell seeds, to jump on the hype train, or to piggy back off of someone else’s hard work. It’s not our style. In fact, to create a new auto strain that really bares a significant resemblance to the photoperiod strain you start with takes a lot of dedication, even more so than the usual high levels of work and time that we put in. In our opinion and experience it can take 3 outcrosses to your desired photoperiod to really lock traits down and to feel comfortable to put that little word, ‘auto’ before or after a famous strain name. To do that work could easily take 5-6 years. This single cross of Gorilla Glue #4 to our Grape Crinkle, working it over 4 generations to become fully auto and testing time, has taken over 2 years alone. Initially we made a cross of GG#4 x Ripleys OG and also the GG#4 to Grape Crinkle for evaluation, but after the F1 grow out, we settled on the GG#4 and Grape Crinkle cross being the one to develop. We’re happy to say that we’re stoked with the outcome, and by calling it 4 Assed Monkey, that pays homage to it being related to Gorilla Glue #4, and also to our company namesake, Dr. Mephisto, who made his 5 assed monkeys in his lab. We’re on our crazy farm developing 4 assed monkeys, so to us, 4 Assed Monkey seems quite poetic. This girl is a quick one, sparkly with frost, high in terps and has become something unique which we’re super proud of.
