Genmanipuliertes Gras?

eine Suche nach "g13 us government" bringt bei Google diverse Seiten mit diesem Text:

The G13 is an outstanding pure Indica cutting reputedly discovered by the U.S.government research program in Mississippi. Crossed with the Hash Plant it produces one of the best indoor hybrids that unfortunately was only available in the late ‘80s.
Now the Sensi Seed Bank is very proud to have this hybrid in production again and to bring it on the market labeled as “Mr. Nice”. This is in honor of Howard Marks, an Oxford graduate, who became one of the biggest Marihuana smugglers of our time. After spending 7 years in an American Penitentiary, Howard released his autobiography “Mr. Nice” and now spends his time promoting the normalisation of Cannabis. If you like a solid and resinous bud with a ‘double Indica’ hashish taste and aroma, it is time to go for the Mr.Nice G13 x Hashplant.

eine Suche nach "g13 us government genetically" bringt aber tatsächlich diverse Quellen. wäre nett, wenn Ihr mir helft, die Spreu vom Weizen zu trennen.

schließlich belegen die zunächst nur, dass es das Gerücht gibt. *zwinker*

Question 1: Is G13 real? Stories abound since the release of American Beauty, but no concrete answers to the question. Everyone claims to have G13 seeds in their bank, but often it turns out to be a renamed variety (Such as Mr. Nice). I have my own story, about hitchhiking in the early '70s and sharing a roach with the driver. Best stuff I've smoked then or since ("Completely mellow high. No paranoia"). I swear I remember him telling me it was G13, but . . .

Answer: G-13, the legendary "standing 8-count", in-your-face-potent strain was genetically altered by a US government marijuana cancer research facility to increase potency in the herb when there was an actual honest gov't program (among all the swag related dis-honest programs then and now). When the facility was disbanded scientists who cared took clones with them to preserve their research. (http://www.angelfire.com/nz2/g13central/frames.html) G-13 has all but disappeared in its original state, but there some reliable, extremely potent, high-yielding crosses available right here in our own state ... clones! (Click here for all the FAQS).

I am experimenting with a G-13 crossed with Hawaiian that is extremely potent, but leaves you rather breathless. Anyone out there with another cross of G-13 or pure G-13, let me know … Please.

Sharkey and K from High Times say they have pure G-13 which produces 26% THC. How to get hold of them is another question...you might write the editor.

G13 is the alleged codename for a strain of marijuana, supposedly developed by several U.S government agencies during the 1960's. According to myth, the CIA, FBI, and other agencies procured the best strains of marijuana from breeders all over the world. At a secret installation in Mississippi, they bred many new hybrids. Putting these together, they created a strain that was more powerfully intoxicating than any of the original hybrids. This strain, G13, was a primarily indica phenotype strain and provided a very potent smoke and a completely mellow high. Allegedly a single cutting of this potent strain was stolen by an employee at this government facility and released into the public domain. G13 comes from the room the employee supposedly stole it from, Grow Room 13. This is of course a myth used by dealers to sell product, or seed banks to sell seeds. Some modern breeders claim to have strains which are descendents of the original G13 strain. While this is most likely not true, chances are the strain they are selling is much more potent than anything produced 30 years ago. To date, no government agency or independent verification of this strain has been released. Other rumors say G13 was developed by the University of Washington's cannabis-testing-facility in the 1970's for medical testing, but this, too, has not been verified. This strain was featured in American Beauty, a movie. In the movie a young dealer hands a bag of what looks to be about an eighth (1/8 of an ounce, commonly 3.5 grams) to another character saying, "This shit is G13. It was genetically engineered by the government. It's incredibly potent, but a super-mellow high. No paranoia", then charges him $2000. This bogus line is responsible for a boost in the strain myth's popularity.

The name G-13 is said to derive from the term Government Marijuana, the 13 used as M is the thirteenth letter of the alphabet.

Apocryphally, G-13 contains 28% THC by weight, about double the average percentage in most high-grade sensemilla grown commercially. It has been claimed that some strains of marijuana grown in Amsterdam have met or surpassed this percentage, but accurate, verified results have not been produced.

G-13 in fiction

The G-13 strain was featured in the film American Beauty. In the film, a young dealer named Ricky Fitts (Wes Bentley) hands a bag of what looks to be about an eighth (1/8 of an ounce, commonly 3.5 grams) to the character played by Kevin Spacey and says, "But this shit is top of the line. It's called G-13. Genetically engineered by the U.S. Government. Extremely potent. But a completely mellow high, no paranoia," then charges him $2000. This line is responsible for a boost in the mythical strain's popularity.

also für mich ist das zunächst mal Humbug. kann ja sein, dass man im englischen mit "genetically altered" oder "genetically engineered" nicht die gentechnische Veränderung meint. ansonsten halte ich es für offensichtlich, dass dies Quatsch ist, denn in den 60ern war die Gentechnik einfach noch nicht o weit. ich kenne den erwähnten Film nicht, aber das scheint mir eine plausible Erklärung für dieses Gerücht.
