About G13

G13 is an indica with Afghani roots and one of the most storied names in cannabis folklore. A popular legend claims it came out of a government research program in the 1960s or 1970s, but that story has never been verified, and it is best viewed as part of the strain’s mythology rather than documented history. You may also see it written as G-13.

Whatever its true origin, G13 is known for chunky, resinous buds with an earthy, piney aroma and a sweet finish. Myrcene often accounts for the earthy, musky side of the profile, pinene is the terpene most associated with pine scents, and caryophyllene adds a light peppery spice.

People often report a relaxed, euphoric and sleepy experience with G13, which is why it is usually considered a nighttime strain. It is commonly described as heavy in the body while still leaving room for a good mood. THC typically ranges from 18% to 24%, with minimal CBD, though potency varies by grower and batch.

G13 tends to suit consumers who are comfortable with stronger indicas. Start low and go slow, give it time to take effect, and check the lab results on the package for accurate numbers. Find G13 at licensed dispensaries and delivery services near you on WhereLeaf.

For adults of legal age. Not medical advice. THC and CBD vary by grower and batch — check the product label. Effects vary by person. Start low, go slow, and never drive high.
