Not much you can do, it's mostly genetics as to whether you fast gain or slow gain.

Just keep diet in check, and make sure you're feeding adequately. At your age approximately 1,600-1,800 cals a day is fine.

Don't forget to try and rain close to a meal, so you feed hungry muscles pretty soon after workouts, don't train until say 4:30PM for example then eat at 6:00PM or you'll lose some benefit from your nutrition, with regards to muscle recovery and improvement.
