Pacific G13
Also known as: Pacific G-13, Pacific G13 Haze
Pacific G13 Strain Overview
Pacific G13 is a hybrid cannabis strain that combines the legendary G13 genetics with Pacific Northwest breeding. While the exact origins are somewhat debated within cannabis cultivation circles, most sources indicate it was developed by breeders in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, likely in Oregon or Washington, during the late 1990s or early 2000s. The strain represents an attempt to combine the potent, relaxing qualities of the mysterious G13 with the vigorous growth characteristics and unique terpene profiles found in Pacific Northwest cannabis varieties.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized plants with dense, resinous buds that exhibit a distinctive appearance. The flowers are often lime green with occasional purple hues, covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating visual contrast. The leaves tend to be broad and dark green, characteristic of its indica heritage, though the plant structure shows some sativa influence in its branching pattern.
Pacific G13 is noted for its complex aroma and flavor profile that combines earthy, piney notes with subtle citrus undertones. The strain has gained a reputation among cultivators for its resilience and adaptability to different growing conditions, though it remains somewhat rare in commercial markets compared to more mainstream hybrids. Its balanced effects and manageable growth characteristics have made it a favorite among home growers in the Pacific Northwest region where it originated.

Pacific G13 Strain Growing Information
Pacific G13 is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants in the Northern Hemisphere are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments, though it thrives in temperate climates similar to its Pacific Northwest origins.
Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Plants typically reach a medium height of 120-180 cm indoors and can grow taller outdoors, sometimes reaching 200-250 cm. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields and manage height.
Pacific G13 prefers stable temperatures between 20-27°C (68-80°F) and moderate humidity levels around 40-50% during flowering. The plants have good resistance to common molds and pests, though proper air circulation is important to prevent bud rot in dense colas. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with the strain responding well to balanced feeding schedules. Some phenotypes may exhibit purple coloration in cooler temperatures during the final weeks of flowering.
