G13 anyone?

Post by Prawn Connery »

Ah, I'm not buying into the G13 hype, but I am interested in knowing what to look out for in a G13 pheno, just to see what it's like.

But I think I've found what I need on the Mr Nice site here: http://www.mrnice.nl/dhtml/strains.php?id=23" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The two distinctive features that the G13 plant brings with it are a serrated edged leaf trait and an unusually healthy (almost glossy) green in the growing plant. If you are looking to find a plant that is used to the limelight, then this is your girl!
^ That's what I've just found. Out of about 12 seeds I have one male that looks completely different to the others. The leaves have large serrated edges, lots of fingers and the overall plant is a bright lime-green colour, whereas all the others have dark green/red/blue leaves that are spear-shaped with small serrations. I'll probably use the "G13" male to pollinate the females to see what comes out.


On a related note, I've discovered the male G13 Haze clone that was used in my cross is the same as Soma's and comes from some of Neville's old G13 Haze stock from the late 80s/early 90s. Apparently Soma was given 10 x G13 Haze seeds by Ed Rosenthal that were over 10 years old and only one of them hatched and it was a male. It was used to make all of Soma's G13 collection.

They're not Soma seeds, but test seeds given to me by Luc at Paradise Seeds. He crossed the G13 Haze male (which is apparently a clone of the G13 Haze Soma used in his G13 Collection) with a couple of "mystery plants" labelled "15" and "16".

So I had two different crosses to work with. The 15 crosses look most promising, as half the 16s went hermy. It is a 15 male that appears to be the G13 pheno, with jagged leaves and lime-green appearance. It also has a very sticky/oily stem compared to the others, with a distinct funk about it.

I've never tried any of Soma's stuff - which ones didn't you have luck with?

did g13 get named after its leaf structure???
the intolerance of the old order is emerging from the rosy mist in which it has hitherto been obscured.

Nah, apparently it was bred by the Gub'ment - hence the "G" (Government weed) moniker. If you believe the fairtale, that is.

I didn't have any luck at all with his NYCD - out of 10 seeds only 3 popped and they were all boys - everything else I popped at the time came up no problems....
Then I tried the Soma A I think it was called - nada........
Then I tried the Lavender - out of 5 seeds I got 5 plants - 3 of them girls...... :shock:
Which - in spite of supposed to being mainly indica - grew like Jack's fucking beanstalk all the way past the lights up to the ceiling where it curved and grew most of the way back down again...........
I let it go just to see what would happen...... :whistle:
The smoke wasn't half bad tho - real nice taste and an acceptable high - wispy kind of buds - didn't look anything like the photo's he was showing - no colour to them to speak of but it gets very fucking hot here as you know....
Still got 5 Lavender seeds left..........

I grew pure sativas for about 4 years

Tested them everyway I could to see what they would do

I had something that looked like G13. Those broad leafs were unique.

I like all strains and enjoy taste testing and the thorough going. through testing them one by one.

Or all a t t once.

so
Lets begin.
