N13 Kush Feminized is 90% indica and 10% sativa. The plants are compact and bushy, with large, resinous buds. Yields are substantial, and the aroma is earthy, with notes of berry and pine. The effect is typically indica – potent, relaxing and contemplative. The strain grows well in continental climates.
N13 Kush Feminized has a formidable gene pool, with parent plants including G13 Hash Plant and Nicole Kush. It’s 90% indica, 10% sativa, and the indica dominance comes out in the intense, relaxing stone. Like many indicas, the plants are compact with a fairly speedy flowering time.
They also generate impressive yields. Growers can expect an earthy aroma and taste, along with hints of berry and pine. Nicole Kush can be defined as a sweet and woody flavoured strain with notes of lemon that captures the dynamism and freshness of the US fields.
This strain, developed by Sensi Seeds’ researchers, has an impressive parentage. Its genetic pool includes plants like Mr Nice G13 x Hash Plant (named after cannabis icon Howard Marks), and Nicole Kush – both varieties having won awards in the past.
It’s a 90% indica, 10% sativa strain, and the strong indica genetics can be seen in the plant’s appearance and the relaxing, powerful high. The seeds are feminized, to avoid the presence of male plants. This makes it easier for novice growers, as there’s no requirement to identify and remove unwanted plants.
The strain also has a relatively short flowering time of 50 to 65 days, so the buds can be harvested fairly quickly. Like most indica-dominant strains, the plants remain compact, both indoors and out. That means they can be grown without detection with relative ease.
They’re also typically indica in appearance, with a thick central cola and plenty of bushy branches. The buds usually multiply at the nodes rather than on the branches themselves, which is another classic feature of an indica-dominant strain. When cultivated in the right conditions, the plants produce plenty of weighty, resinous buds, which result in a formidable harvest.
It’s largely the bumper yields that make this cannabis strain a popular choice for growers. The characteristics from Nicole Kush usually produce sizeable harvests, regardless of whether it’s grown indoors or outside. However, if growing this strain outdoors, it’s important to note that they require a continental climate, with plenty of warmth and sunlight.
Most cultivation techniques deliver good results with this strain, such as SCROG (Screen of Green), SOG (Sea of Green), lollipopping and supercropping.
Effect, taste, and smell of N13 Kush Feminized
This strain is 90% indica and 10% sativa. As a result, the aroma, taste and effect are all very indica in personality, though a hint of the sativa influence can be detected. When consumed, users report a fast-acting sense of deep relaxation and warmth, which leaves them feeling both thoughtful and inspired.
During the cultivation stage, the plants produce a pleasant earthy scent, with hints of rich berry and pine. This aroma intensifies as harvest-time approaches, and during the curing process. The taste is a perfect balance between the sweet flavours of Nicole Kush and the popular hashy one of Mr Nice G13 x Hash Plant, with notes of berry still very evident. N13 Kush brings together the best of US and Sensi Seeds genetics.

Strain FAQ
Why do some cannabis strains smell piney?
Alpha-pinene, present in pine trees, gives forests their pleasant scent. Alpha-pinene gives cannabis its pine-like scent and other qualities.
Where do the genetics for High-THC cannabis strains come from?
High-THC strains combine sativa, indica, and hybrid traits. This rich genetic mix is created through careful breeding to increase THC and create a mesh of cannabinoids and terpenes for a variety of effects. It's a balancing act that showcases the art and science of legal cannabis cultivation.
Can 12/12 photoperiod hybrids flower faster?
Breeders have been working cross-breeding hybrids to meet the 12/12 light schedule and speed up flowering. These optimised hybrids can finish faster than other varieties without compromising yield or potency.
Can hybrids highlight uncommon cannabinoids?
Hybrids can be produced to raise CBG or THCV levels for distinct effects and medical purposes. Cannabis' complicated chemistry is being more understood and appreciated with this concentration on uncommon cannabinoids becoming more common.
How have North American and Canadian cannabis strains adapted?
North American and Canadian strains have evolved or been intentionally selected to thrive in a wide range of temperatures, from the humid Southeast to the cooler, drier North. Strong plants that can withstand a variety of environmental circumstances are helpful for breeders trying to generate resilient hybrid strains.
