The True Origin of G13

CannaT

starin' at the world through my rearview
G13 was made by the story in 1970's NCNPR in Mississippi and it was made his way out of facility with unknown chanels.
It was BLD strain. Easy to grow. Smelled like skunk and with lots of sour micrene.Taste wasnt something special sour mycrene and spice.
But it was killer strong herb with fast acting high that was called " indica rush body stone ."
It was always tested for more than 20% thc.
High was long lasting more than 3h.
It wasnt something psydelic mostly body high with hevy feelings of narcotic/letargic efect.
You are very confused and forgetfull if you smoke it for longer period of time.
It was very good for insomnia to.

Thats what I know on this topic.

The most garlic and nasty flavor was from G13 x NL2,
the 75% airborne g13 seeds you gave me made narcotic with some up lift, short chunky weed

and .. tasty ,smelly .weed....

"dee wee dalat”also sent me "SoCal G13" seeds..back when the Dalat talk began

they were more dank tasting and definitely had potency

Hahaha, i was wondering who the hell @Rgd is and when did i get them to this Rgd. Okay, got that figured out. You thought they were tastey???? I'm more used to the taste of stuff like SpaceQueen, so i guess it's just a matter of preference, although i don't mind the non-fruity tooty stuff...as long as it isn't woody with the flame at the back of the throat stuff (which i usually love the high on, so...)

So...which were the more dank the .75 or the SoCal?

I have a pack of G13 x white widow in cold storage that needs looking at. All stories aside it seems likely its origin is from Afghan seed stock. Which province is anyone’s guess at this point.

The one G13 clone I bought & grew, from Organicann in Santa Rosa, was super-vigorous and had sort of a "Conan the Barbarian" look on the stems.

Like the stems would bulk up, as if they were preparing for a wind-storm.

Pure g13 Doesn't smell of skunk,that's forsure,76
I wrot what I read in book by backes which is written by help of Sam and Clarke.

If they dont know, how G13 was nobody on this forum also dont know.
I added only 1 part about indica body rush which someone from Dronkers family said in some interview I read or watch somhere.

In fact I never grow pack of seeds that contain G13. But smoke some g13haze and g13amnesia and I can definatly saw impact of g13 clone that is described in that book.

hashplant is/was strongest strain from Seedbank/Sensi.
G13xhp was limited edition that was back in catalogue in 2000 or 2003.
But was not strong as Hashplant.


One of the fastest-flowering indoor hybrids that we hav thee yet produced. It has the marvellous potency and quick finish of Hash Plant, plus vigor and yield. In our lest test, all seedlings finished in less than 50 days of flowering, producing beautifully solid, heavy buds. Clones from the seedlings rooted very easily and should flower even more quickly. Powerful all-Indica high, but not brutal. This hybrid has perhaps the best balance of speed, yield and quality, destined for commercial success!
This is what Nevile said on this cross in his seed bank.

Those are the seeds I selected that pheno from
They were not making feminized crosses back then. There was no g13 x hp.
The thread I linked tells it all...

Then I started doing seed crops of the pure Indica and crossing it with other strains from Nepal, Mexico, and Columbia.

I had clones and seed and NL#5 was Hawaiian x Steve Murphy's Afghani Strain that is what I sent to Nevil. Steve Murphy owned The Indoor Sun Shoppe in Seattle. NL #5 was a F1 hybrid in 1982.

Northern lights # 1 was Nevils Afghani crossed with the Seattle Afghan strain form Steve Murphy.

I have been breeding since 1970 and he got NL from me. I sent seed to Ben and Kees at Sensi too for giving me the nutrient formula for Grodan and Seattle water.

The 11 strains were graded by height and flavor for indoor growing. The #1 was a short phenotype pure Indica from Afghanistan as was #2,3, & 4. #5 to #11 were the Hybrids with the narrow leaved strains we worked with.

The 11 packets of seed Nevil received were graded the #1 ,2, 3, were 100% indica, #5 the clone I traded Herbie Nelson for was 50% Afghani & 50% Hawaiian sativa. The others #6-#11 were crosses with Columbian, Thai, and Mexican Sativas. Nevil then sold out to Ben, became partners with Arjan, and then hooked up with the Mr. Nice Crew.

Then there is this that says that they were clones and not seed packs.

So where did the nl1 male come from?

Why is it mostly hazey type plants found in a g13x hp/nl1?

When I first got the NL varieties, there were 8 types, 1-8.

They came with descriptions, which I published in my catalogue. These descriptions may not correlate with what later developed. The original intention was to purchase seeds from the US NL growers. It didn't work out and supply dried up. I kept the lines separate and inbred them. NL1 and NL2 stabilised into distinct types and NL5 only produced one unique individual.
NL1 was a full blood Afghan indica. One thick main stem, dark green leaves, modest yield with nuggety buds, a little coarse with good resin production, which when ripe went golden. The high was narcotic. The seeds ranged from tiny to massive. I used to love the big ones. Large fat heavily and darkly mottled seeds. Selecting for these seeds made this Afghan even coarser. It was fun to show people these seeds.
The best line of NL1 actually came from the smaller seeded types, better high and bud structure.
There weren't many pure indica lines around in those days. Big Bud, Hash Plant and G13 were pure indicas in my estimation, but were cuttings. NL1 was the only good pure Afghani male line I had.( there was Sams Afghani#1, but that was toxic in a bad way) The NL2 was a Kush.
I put the NL1 out there as a pure strain. I wasn't popular. People would tell me, "give me the pure strains", but if it cost them 10% of their yield they would complain, well try 50%.
The pure indica hybrids were more popular. NL1 x HP and NL1 x G13 were the best. At least people could use the word pure (very popular). But they were good!

I expect that a lot of people holding what they believe to be pure indicas today, would find, if the truth be known, that the sire line traces back to NL1.


Hash plant X NL1 was one of the strongest indica's I have smoked. That crossed real well with G13.

2 packs each strain.
