I seem to remember Shanti saying that Nevil gave him some G13/Skunk seeds in the late 80's/early 90's and that is what he uses as the mom of his current G13 crosses. I think I also read that Shanti has old seeds of pure G13/Haze (no skunk) as well as another skunk-free G13 cross. I'm too tired to find the post but I would guess it was crossed with NL5 or Hashplant.
Hi guys, here is Nevil's recipe for his G-13:
I think that I have mentioned this before, G13 and Hash Plant were cuttings. I crossed HP to NL1, which was the strongest indica I've ener smoked and I put males from this to G13.
It was labeled HP1.G13. People have assumed that this was a straight HPxG13 cross, but this was not the case. Their was NO sativa in this hybrid which was sent far and wide.
If you were looking for pure indica, this was the one. If a good breeder kept this pure he should have been able to pull most indica types out of this. That was my intention.

G-13 cutting crossed to one of Nev's Haze selections sounds like that would be something to consider for the grail. I wonder if this selection is still around and if so in what form?
HHG, I would guess that G13xHaze is Nev's and N states that NL1 is in there too.
Shanti's G-13xSkunk is really nice. Especially if you are not feeling well. It has very strong medical properties, and I can easily seeing it for people who suffer from Chronic pain, epilepsy, cataract , appetite stimulation and insomnia. I can only imagine what some full melt would do or even tinctures, creams and butters.
I was fortunate to smoke pheno's 6, 8 and 10 of G-13xSkunk grown by Medicine Man. HHG, to me there was little variation, with regard to falvour, potency and structure. It was all indica dominate and the only difference was in yield. But that was in the smoke.
I also smoked a pheno of G-13xBW grown by Blused and I think that it tasted like White Widow, so this would make sense not only be cause of the union but on the heriditery level of the NL1. If NL1 is Ortega, then there is another plant with little variation and potent indica characteristics. I would like to try my own G-13xBW. I thought the hight was inspiring compared to the indy dom G13 crosses but it could just been the way it was grown. G-13/BW selection was NL1 dominate, though I am speculating because I have yet to smoke BW straight or NL5 for a pallet/stone comparison.
Now I get a chance to grow the haze cross. I am sure there will be some exciting variation. Might need to buy more of these seeds for more diligence on it.
Defiantly exciting things going on in the MNS Camp.
I hope all is well with everyone,
Chana
