The microscopic Monte Carlo quark-gluon string model (QGSM) is employed to study particle production in ultrarelativistic proton-proton collisions. The model is based on Reggeon Field theory accomplished by string phenomenology. Various observables, including multiplicity, rapidity and transverse momentum spectra, short-range, long-range and femtoscopy correlations, are described quite well in a wide span of the collision energy. Predictions are made for pp collisions at √s = 14 TeV.
