g-13 compared to other strains

[fallenangel]

hey everyone .. as most of you know im in the middle of building my garden ( damn house needs work too! ) . the other day my buddy grabbed me up a half oz of g-13 .. wow killer weed , 1 hit stupid ! but my question to all in the know is how does this stuff stack up against the other top strains out there ? just currious , im not furtunate enough to have tried all those killer strains yet . rez's stuff, bogs stuff , dj shorts stuff . ak 47 .. all this is on my list and im currious . thanks everyone

The only one on your list I can comment on is the AK47. I'd drop it from your list.
Before selecting, ya need to choose which of the 3 ways you want to go in. Sativa, Skunk or Indica. If your going Incica, The others on your list maybe worth trying. I'd also add Black Domina.

Seems it is inica you're looking for lol.

I hear that G-13 is a very nice strain, I ordered the G13~Black Widow from Reef (11/12/05). I will update you once beans received.

I grew AK47 a cpl years back and ill tell you i would love to have the same cut of that wonderful cherry tasting ak47 in my garden any time .

AG-13 was ok, never did get a good run in with it. just didnt like my setup or somethin. great aroma. MrNice(G13 X HP) sensi seeds is another good one along with there black dominia. I have a MrNice pre 98 cut and its topshelf, token some right now

I thought ak47 was better balanced high and definately better tasting than g13, Rezs diesel good for crossing to get you that crazy high. I got ripped off a trainwreck diesel cross out here which is top 5 in my strains. SD alone doesnt get me crazy high, but sure does taste good. Dj's got good flavor, I think you would like the 13xhashplant as stated above, the right pheno gives the 13 body in flavor, which I like, g13 is too bland for me. The right AK47 pheno would be your best bet IMHO. Oh yeah a good sb2 or 3 pheno from bog is really comparible in high with g13, I think the sb looks better too.

Why does skunk need to be considered seperate from Indica and Sativa?

Is the Skunk high unique?

well when you are talking about skunk.... it is a classic... i think as an experienced stoner its one you neeeed to grow and smoke probably more then once but you proba bly have an idea about it... and base on the genes its in a hybrid you have had.... if not got it under no name or something. its like asking about HAze or Northlights or or or... ya know what im sayin... however all skunks these days arent equal and some really show true colors after they are bred.... so i guess its like anything else.

ya know i feel every pheno even may be unique else why bother identifyin it but this does not come close to what you were lookin for in a responce id think. anywho my comments on the original post are as follows:

talking about g-13 and comparing it to other stuff is interesting... id say it depends what you want...

BOG offers very strong indicas... is the taste better then a g-13 i dont know... probably depends what you like... all around though BOG offers a nice indica and you could find one you thought was tasty if you looked long enough or got lucky. i havent tried his sour bubble next to g-13 but the sour bubble i had seemed stronger... both were very potent though.
ya know screw a break down of what i know because rez, BOG and DJ are very good breeders for the money. G-13 is not as easily found as these breeders and if you got it as a clone of the main varieties of G-13 obviously it would beat most average seeds from those breeders... however you found the clone that suits you.... from them breeders... you will be twice as satisfied... id think.
it is all opinion because G-13 has obviously been aorund for a few years... i guess its history/identity is always a bit in question but oh well.
personally i never liked AK47... nice yeilder but better bag appeal then smoke appeal to my head.
thats my bulldshittery for this post anyway
merry christmas guys

g -13 is one of my favorite strains sure it probably doesnt have an awesome taste but the high is there and that's what really counts to me even though its not bad having taste either ya know but g-13 never let me down so i praise it as my favorite strain ever consumed.

 

[Four Fingers]

Texas Resin Blue 13 was outstanding!
I'd vote no for the AK47 too.

 

[guineapig]

The sample of G-13 which I experienced was quite an experience.....colour was mostly lime green with a few darker-green leaves interspersed throughout the bud....i agree that the taste wasn't much to write home about but WOW what an outstanding high!!

The funny thing was that the bud didn't look "covered in crystals" like a white-widowy bud so i really didn't think that i would get that high.....how is it that a bud which isn't obviously covered in crystals could get me that high? People were very anxious to get the last scraps of these buds because everyone loved them......what an experience.....i will always remember when G-13 came to town.....

So that is my 2 cents......the conoiosseurs who grew it were convinced it was the "real G-13" but who knows for sure.....all i can say is that G-13 rocks!!!

Is it everyone else's experience that this strain packs a punch WAY beyond its crystal composition or am i wrong about this? I have heard that some G-13 cuttings are very crystally (especially Reeferman's example) so who knows if i had the exact copy which others are speaking of......oh well.......

gp :friends:

my set up also ab g13 didnot do that well and i am dropping it from my garden after this run. I do like the pacific g13 and well be keeping it around and paradise seeds is coming out with there own g13 which a few peeps just finished testing on it is supposed to be a haze dad to g13 this stuff is rocket fuel. but if you want something that has a good taste and equell or better in my opion than g13 is sour d

GP funny, I've found very little corelation between trich count and hitting ability. Heaviest hitter being the black dom, which had a very low trich count. ????? Dont understand it myself, but if others are noticing it too, I guess they werent just too small to see?? Convince yourself of allsorts to make things fit together at times. But perhaps its the content of the trichs rather than the amount that counts. Kinda makes ya wonder about the hash that would come from some of these strains.

g13 x butterscotch hawaiin

g13 x butterscotch hawaiin

thats some great stuff for sure..this is a winner in the garden for sure...good luck.......

 

[Guest]

The same rules apply to a strain called "train-wreck". doesn't look crystal coverd but every puff is guranteed to get you there.

 

[Guest]

Tric field has no correlation to potentcy.

[guineapig]

Yes CBF I really do feel that you are correct after 15 years of analysis and testing....

Hence the emergence of "Bag Appeal" as an attribute of Cannabis as compared to the separate category of "Potency".....

I do wonder why this is and at the risk of hijacking this thread I would like to pose the hypothesis that these buds which don't look crystally whatsoever yet get you higher than a strain with lots of Bag Appeal and lower Potency have something inherent in their Cannabinoidal Chemistry which makes them more Potent with a low Trichome Density.....Maybe it is just a simple addition or subtraction of a carboxyl group here or there or perhaps these strains have a different isomer of THC......maybe these strains even have a high percentage of the "Rare Cannabinoids" such as THCV or CBGM but personally i have my doubts.....Hopefully more research will be done on the subject....

An alternate theory is that there is something about the G-13 buds which allow them to just naturally cure in such a way that all of its THC is successfully liberated upon contact with flame as opposed to strains like "White Widow" with so many Trichomes that they all somehow get in the way of a successful combustion......maybe the arrangement of Trichomes on "G-13" strains is just geometrically perfect, allowing for all of the THC to be successfully liberated upon combustion.....

Interesting thread y'all...... GP

I like when trichromes are almost hard to touch, meaning yoru touch the Og kushs good cured trichomes they couldnt fall off if a hurricane came through, you touch NL trichromes they fall off if you walk to fast by the nug. Just an observation I made on what kinda trichromes i like. I like the ones that crust over, not dust over. In my eyes theres a big difference and kind of high.
