Long before True Terpenes, Abstrax Tech, and Floraplex, a lone visionary shaped the future of the terpene industry. This is the story.

Dive deep into the legend of Gorilla Glue #4, the pioneering terpene profile that started it all.

Did you know that Mr. Extractor’s G’Rilla 13 was the trailblazer in the world of terpene profiles? This fact, often touted across Mr. Extractor’s website, isn’t just a bold claim—it’s a piece of history substantiated by a rich tapestry of evidence. The journey of this pioneering terpene profile has been meticulously recorded and can be traced through a diverse range of mediums. From the visual storytelling of videos to the real-time updates on social media accounts, and from the lasting impressions captured in images to the digital archives preserved by the Wayback Machine, each medium offers a unique glimpse into the genesis and evolution of the first terpene profile. This comprehensive documentation not only asserts Mr. Extractor’s role in this innovation but also paints a detailed picture of how G’Rilla 13 came to be a significant milestone in the terpene world.

The story begins with Andrew Jones, the future CEO of Mr. Extractor, early 2010 era.

At this juncture, Jones had just achieved a remarkable feat in the field of thermodynamics, just before received multiple federal patents for some of the earliest closed loop thermodynamic extraction machines. However, it was his next project that would mark a turning point in history. Working closely with medical patients, Jones identified a recurring issue: patients were seeking a way to use their botanical products digitally in a form compatible with contemporary technology. They desired a liquid form, akin to other products that utilized a mix of flavoring, propylene glycol, nicotine, and vegetable glycerin. However, their trials had shown that only propylene glycol could dissolve their botanicals, leading to a problematic outcome. This mixture, while effective, resulted in an extremely harsh experience for the users, owing to the throat-irritating nature of propylene glycol—a component widely used by other companies to induce harshness in their products. This specific challenge laid the groundwork for Andrew Jones to embark on the creation of the first terpene profile, addressing a need that had been unmet in the market until then.

The Initial Challenges of Vaporizer Technology Development

Drew’s journey in terpene innovation, while pioneering, wasn’t without its precedents. Before his significant breakthrough, O-Pen had ventured into the realm of propylene glycol-based solutions, blending it with extracts in an attempt to create a usable product for vaporizers. The concept initially garnered interest, especially considering the limited options available at the time. However, this enthusiasm quickly waned as users, particularly medical patients who were the primary consumers, reported adverse effects. The use of pure propylene glycol proved to be harsh on the lungs and throat, a major drawback for a product intended for medical use. This situation underscored the urgency and the need for a more refined and health-conscious solution, setting the stage for Drew’s next big venture.

Revisiting Terpenes: A Shift in Drew’s Research Approach

Drew, fueled by the success of his thermodynamic extraction machines and his online platform Mr. Extractor.com, set his sights on developing a better alternative. He reasoned that the best solution might be derived from the plant itself, leveraging his expertise in extraction technology. This led to an exhaustive period of experimentation, marked by numerous failures and setbacks. Early in his research, Drew had considered terpenes but initially dismissed them due to their potent aromas, as his goal, shaped by patient feedback, was to create a liquefying agent that was neutral in taste, allowing the natural aroma of the plant to prevail. Furthermore, the solution needed to be safe, without causing health issues or undesirable side effects. But after a series of unsuccessful attempts with other formulations—where solutions either separated, tasted unpleasant, or were too harsh—Drew revisited the idea of using terpenes. This time, he approached the problem from a different angle: if creating a taste-free solution was unattainable, why not develop something that enhanced the flavor instead? This paradigm shift in his approach marked a pivotal moment in his quest to create the first successful terpene profile.

The G 13 Strain: Inspiration for Drew’s Terpene Innovation

Drew’s deep involvement in the world of medical botanicals extended beyond just extraction technology. He had a rich history in various aspects of patient care, including cultivation, manufacturing, and distribution. His expertise was particularly evident in his work with the G 13 strain, a variety that he and his team had mastered over the years. This strain was not just a personal favorite but also one that they had successfully mass-produced and distributed nationwide, known for its potency. It was this very strain, G 13, that Drew chose as the inspiration for his first terpene profile. This decision, while intuitive, was met with significant challenges. During that period, terpene testing was a nascent and unrefined science. Laboratories were hesitant to engage with botanicals, and their understanding of terpenes was limited. The test results available at the time were rudimentary and often inaccurate, as emerging labs struggled to cater to a community that was just beginning to recognize the importance of terpene profiling.

Overcoming Challenges: Drew’s Innovative Approach to Terpene Blending

Faced with these limitations, Drew decided to take an unconventional approach. Realizing that traditional laboratory methods were inadequate, he chose to rely on his senses and expertise. He procured a variety of terpenes, aiming to replicate the distinctive terpene profile of G 13 through a meticulous process of trial and error. This experiment was not without its risks. The few scientists willing to discuss terpenes with him cautioned against direct interaction with these compounds, treating them as potentially hazardous even in small quantities. Undeterred, Drew focused on identifying the most prominent terpenes associated with specific plants, ordering them from a chemical company far from his locale, a fascinating story all on its own. Once the terpenes arrived, he embarked on the delicate task of blending them, guided by his knowledge and olfactory sense. This process was arduous and filled with uncertainty, but after about three weeks, Drew experienced a breakthrough moment. He had successfully created a terpene profile that not only emulated the essence of G 13 but also met all his criteria: it remained stable without separation, caused no irritation, and, importantly, tasted fantastic. This eureka moment signified not just a personal achievement for Drew but also a landmark event in the world of terpene science and botanical product development.

The Birth of G’Rilla 13: A Blend of Science and Sensory Expertise

Drew’s initial creation, G’Rilla 13, was a significant step in terpene innovation, yet it was a prototype with room for refinement. While it closely resembled the aroma of the G13 strain, it wasn’t an exact match, as we now know most profiles aren’t. This realization dawned upon Drew after careful analysis and feedback from testing the profile with friends and family. Interestingly, the scent also shared similarities with Gorilla Glue #4, another strain he was well-acquainted with. Drawing on his extensive experience in crossbreeding and developing new strains, Drew saw this as an opportunity to blend the best of both worlds. He envisioned a ‘liquid crossbreeding’ of G13 and Gorilla Glue #4, thus birthing ‘G’Rilla 13’. The name for this innovative blend was derived naturally from its genetic lineage. Recognizing its potential and the solution it offered to a longstanding issue in the industry, Drew aptly named the product ‘The Solution’, signifying its role as the long-sought answer to a prevalent challenge.

A Pioneering Decision: Sharing ‘The Solution’ with the World

The emergence of ‘The Solution’ marked a watershed moment in the terpene industry, not just for its innovative blend but also for the strategic decision Drew made regarding its disclosure. At that point, he faced a critical choice: to keep the composition of ‘The Solution’ proprietary, potentially creating an exclusive and highly lucrative product line, or to share his groundbreaking invention with the world. Drew, understanding the broader implications of his discovery, chose the latter. This wasn’t merely a decision to share a successful product; it was a conscious, strategic move to foster a new industry. By revealing the ingredients and the process behind ‘The Solution’, Drew invited others to explore and innovate in this space. This decision catalyzed the creation of numerous companies and brands, each exploring variations and applications of terpenes, effectively transforming a once niche sector into a thriving industry. This choice not only facilitated the emergence of a new market but also played a pivotal role in aiding millions of medical patients and creating thousands of jobs. Drew’s vision and his decision to share it with the world, a significant moment in the history of terpenes, is well documented in his videos on Facebook. These videos not only chronicle his journey but also highlight his intention to foster industry-wide growth and innovation, an intention that has since come to fruition.

The Evolution of ‘G’Rilla 13’: A Blend of Science and Sensory Expertise

Despite its groundbreaking nature, the initial version of Drew’s terpene profile didn’t quite capture the exact aroma of G13 – this was, after all, the first prototype. However, it was remarkably close. Through careful analysis and testing with friends and family, Drew realized that the profile also shared notes with Gorilla Glue #4. Drawing from his extensive experience in crossbreeding and developing new strains, he saw this as an opportunity to innovate. The result was a unique blend, a sort of ‘liquid crossbreeding’ of his two favorite strains: G13 and Gorilla Glue #4. This creation needed a name that was as unique as the product itself, and thus ‘G’Rilla 13’ was born. It was a fitting tribute to its dual lineage. The product was more than just good; it embodied the very solution everyone in the industry had been seeking. Aptly, Drew named it ‘The Solution’, a straightforward yet profound title that emphasized its role in resolving a long-standing challenge in the terpene world.
