G-13 has some serious lore around it and a long history of storytelling that has made it an icon in the marijuana community. Rumor has it that this strain is a product of a super plant produced by the U.S. government. Back in the early 1960s, government scientists supposedly bred some of the strongest cannabis in the world together over 13 generations. The end product was Indica-dominant G-13.

A clone of this powerhouse then somehow managed to escape to the underground cannabis scene in the 70s and 80s. This strain then became more popular when it was showcased in the 1990s hit film, American Beauty. Is any of this true? Who knows. But, it’s a definite fact that this strain packs a punch. What’s more, it’s unlikely that modern-day G-13 strains are original cuts.

But, don’t expect to get much done with this one.

You may find yourself fading in and out or ready for a nap with this strain. Even small amounts will induce a powerful and long-lasting physical experience that is sedative and relaxing. The world slows down after a few tastes of this strain.

Be prepared with some snacks, as this herb is well-known for inspiring a bad case of the munchies. You may not be up for a long walk, but heading to a nice restaurant or wandering into the kitchen for some tasty bites are pretty standard for the experience.

Medical cannabis consumers like G-13 for treating chronic pain, autoimmune diseases, inflammation, and gastrointestinal distress. Stress, pain, and headaches are also left by the wayside after G-13. Though, the Indica genetics of this herb make it best for evening and nighttime use. This strain’s relaxing effects are accompanied by a strong, earthy sweet aroma.

New cannabis consumers should be warned – this bud is powerful medicine. Those without much of a tolerance may quickly find themselves stuck on the couch or ready for bed.
