Named after Howard Marks, a British hashish importer and one of the most prolific contemporary cannabis activists, this strain from Holland’s masters of breeding, Sensi Seeds, comprises some pretty serious genetics. While the male parent, Hash Plant, is a direct descendant of one of the best genotypes to come out of the Hindu Kush region, the female parent, G-13, is almost mythical, such is the legend surrounding its origins. It’s the story that every stoner will tell their kids, the one where the U.S. government breeds an ultra-potent strain only to have a cutting liberated by a weed-loving lab technician, which then becomes the hottest property amongst the counter-culture stoners. We’ll never know the truth, but either way, the quality of G-13 has become famous in its own right, and its original pairing with Hash Plant was available in limited edition seeds in the 90s and was brought back to much celebration by Sensi in 1999.

These days, Mr. Nice seeds give rise to solid crops which won’t grow any taller than about 50 inches but can yield up to 100 grams of premium indica bud per plant. Expect flowering in about 60 days and be sure not to overdose them in the earlier stages of growth – just let them do their own thing! Also try not to over water the plant as it’s simply unnecessary and can only damage your grow. These plants love a lot of light, and the more you give them, the more they will produce for you, but be careful that the leaf tips don’t get too close to the bulb or they’ll burn. With such dense buds, it’s imperative to ensure that ventilation in your grow room is sufficient, and humidity is kept at 40% or below during the second half of flowering, as stagnant, wet air can give rise to mold inside the colas. Invest in more fans to ensure a good flow of air if you think this is a concern in your set up, and keep an eye on the humidity at all times.

Mr. Nice is a smoke for the heaviest of tokers, those who could take a whole cross-joint of Skunk without even batting an eyelid. The ‘double Afghani’ taste gives you the ultimate body stone and knocks you off your feet. Depending on your tolerance you might enjoy a few hours of lazy euphoria and a bit of couch lock, or you could lose all motor function and be totally Macraméd to your chair. Either way, it’s not the best choice for a rookie smoker, but the experienced will love it.

  1. Great cross, its hard to find G13 cuts. Grows low and faster then they say for the most part. Hashy flavor and same smell. We bought a pack when it first came out about a decade ago.
