G13 is the government myth. The story says a federal research program at the University of Mississippi held elite indica material and a technician walked a cutting out in the 1970s, the thirteenth in a lettered series. No documentation has ever surfaced and probably never will.

What is real is that the plant circulated for fifty years under that name, and breeders kept using it, which tells you what they thought of it whatever the paperwork says.

Everything below carries G13.
