Does anyone know or has experience with a good breeder of Girl Scout Cookies and GG4?

I already ordered glookies, how is it so far?
Wanted a gg4, gsc and zkittlez without a mix
I’m pleased with it.
That said, I popped 5 seeds and got 4 distinctly different phenos.
I did label everything, and have the two best phenos preserved.
One very sativa leaning, one indica leaning.
Couple things:
It’s a cal mag pig. Give it cal mag early and often.
It’s slow to finish. All of 70 days AFTER pistils show, not the 12/12 flip.
It’s bushy. Really bushy. Lots and lots of leaves. Canopy management and light penetration is a challenge. I’m scrogging it second time around.
Fairly short, minimal stretch on the indica phenos. The sativa pheno stretches quite a bit more.
End product is quite good. Very potent. Unique taste. Hard to describe.
The good pheno were both big yeilders too.
I’ll have a better “opinion” after this second grow using clones from the strong indica pheno.
Here’s a pic, 2 weeks into flower, stretch is just getting going.

PS: be patient. The weight and the sticky happens late in flower. The last two weeks is where it all happened

4 different pheno's sounds like not a stable genotype.. on the bushy note, how well do they respond to heavy defoliation throughout the grow? Planning on doing a grow with lots of different indica dominant strains in a 5x5 without any topping this time just lst and defoliation and lower the amount of leaf plucking untill week 5 of flower. So from 12/12 switch it took around 12 weeks of flowering!?
I defoiliated quite heavily.
They hated it. Lol. May be why they took so long. They spent a couple weeks energy growing new fans. Lol
Now, I defoliated again late in flower, and they responded well. Buds swelled up nice.
I’d say wait to defoliate until week 6 or 7, after the buds set.
I’ve never been shy about defoliating, this is the first time I’ve seen a plant respond by “stalling” that bad.

Thanks, still finding my ways of when to defoliate.. during veg, early flower and late flower. What's your timings on that?
I loloipop starting in veg.
Normally, I then defoliate around week 3 of flower, which I did, and it seemed to stall this strain.
I always strip fans with about 2 weeks to go.
That’s just my preference. There’s tons of opinions on defoliation. Lol

True, and hows the bud structure on the plant?

Perfect, I did a scrog on my first grow as well and turned out great
Top knots were really fat and firm. Anything after the first 8 to 10 inches never bulked up.

Btw ever tried the Barneys Gorilla Zkittlez?
That’s my guess. I’m not short on light either. It’s the density of The foliage.
It’s a leafy girl.
No, I haven’t

I grew the Barnes Gorilla Zkittlez last year. I liked it. All different pheno's but they all had good flavor and a nice high. It was middle of the road production wise. Not great but not bad either. I will grow it again.
When it comes to Cookies and G.G.#4. I have not found them selfed by anyone I would trust yet except Elev8. They have a G.G.#4. They mention to watch for hermies because it is feminized from a strain with hermie traits. I have DNA's Sorbet #4. it is as close as I can find to a good cookies x glue hybrid. Everything I have ever grown from DNA has been good.
