I've only had about 3 and half real sessions of jelqing so far. Should I be seeing flaccid gains already? It seems to be hanging much nicer now, probably a much as half to three quarters of inch. Is this normal? Please pray for me that I might be a fast gainer. And if I am a fast gainer, what is the best approach for me? Milder or heavier workouts? Im thinking milder over a longer period of time...
flaccid gains

Measuring flaccid is as variable as the weather unless you measure turtled every time. I've been at this a month and haven't gained flaccid length but have gained 1/4" hard length.
Franken: Congrats! It's not uncommon to notice flaccid gains this early. You may even notice a slight increase in erect gains this early.
I'm getting good early flacid gains as well, I decided to stick to the newbie routine for a while. When I'm getting out of the shower or just relaxing at night I have noticed I hang at least 5+ inches and it's alot thicker looking flacid. As far as erect gains its not time to measure yet. I would stay light if I were you, it can't hurt and you can always add some extra jelqs in there if you stop gaining.
me too. My flacid state is a monster now. i think its two times bigger than it used to be ( longer and ticker ). Although my erect gains are not coming yet. 
But i know the reason and will fix it
But i know the reason and will fix it As Big Girtha said, "Never let it turtle." I find keeping extended with a moderate stretch for long period of times really helps with flaccid length.
Especially after manual exercises. I used to stretch, jelq, and then stay wrapped with sports wrap for hours. It seemed the longer I stayed wrapped the longer it would hang lower. Some other good devices are golf weights, or an extender at mild tension. I think the key is low intensity, long sessions.

Luis, just curious what do you think is your issue here?
Ok - I am just trying to say that some men gain easily flacid and others gain easily erect. in my case i only had so far increased my flacid gains. really do not know why Iguana . on this thread if i am not wrong you will see that some gained more in flacid while others gained more in erect.
some days ago i started a thread about what is really happening to me - i then received some advices . Plese check it out https://www.pegym.com/forums/general-pe/1974-hard-gainer.html

I have seen some minor erect gains as well. Its about 7.25 BPEL where my max was maybe slightly over 7.0. If I can hit 8.0-8.5 BPEL I'll be in heaven. My current girth is less than I initially thought, I'm looking at about 5.25-5.5 in girth currently. Would like to hit 6+ in girth.
