Mr. Nice
Also known as: Mr. Nice Guy, Mister Nice Guy, Mister Nice, G13 x HP
Overview
Mr. Nice is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (80% indica, 20% sativa) created by Sensi Seeds through crossing the legendary G13 with Hash Plant. Originally known as "G13 x HP," the strain was renamed to honor Howard Marks, the Oxford-educated author and cannabis smuggler who wrote the autobiography "Mr. Nice." This strain won second place at the 2004 High Life Cup and began as a limited edition release before becoming more widely available in 1999. Mr. Nice is characterized by extremely dense buds with dark green coloration, purple leaves, and orange and white hairs throughout. The strain produces a powerful narcotic body stone with strong hashish flavors and is known for its creeper effects that gradually build from mild relaxation to deep sedation. Its reputation as a sophisticated indica makes it particularly valued by experienced users seeking relief from various ailments while maintaining the classic characteristics that made it a legendary strain in cannabis culture.

Growing Information
Mr. Nice requires intermediate to advanced growing skills and is not recommended for beginners. The strain has a flowering time of 8-11 weeks (60-65 days) indoors and can yield 400-650 grams per square meter. Outdoor cultivation requires a warm, Mediterranean-like climate with harvest typically occurring in mid to late October in the northern hemisphere. Plants can reach 190-240 cm outdoors but remain compact indoors. The strain prefers temperatures between 65-80°F and requires careful humidity control to prevent mold due to its dense bud structure. Heavy feeding brings the plant to its full potential, and it responds well to training techniques. Mr. Nice grows well both indoors and outdoors but should be protected from rain and excessive moisture.
