Originally bred by the Brothers Grimm and later re-introduced by TGAgenetics, Apollo 13 is one of my favorite strains for getting a task completed that requires a lot of focus such as writing or needing a creative solution to a problem. One of the contributing factors which lead me to breeding was the inspiration I received from how passionate and knowledgeable the Brothers Grimm were about cannabis. Unlike her energetic sister Cinderella 99, this strain is great for beginners because there is no paranoia after medicating even though this strain is a Sativa dominant plant with THC levels hovering around 20%.
This indoor hybrid has a high calyx/leaf ratio & finishes flowering in 8 weeks or less.
The best females are short, heavily branched plants with multitudes of dense, resinous bud sites - perfect for SCROG. Many growers from the 90’s raved about the amazing red bubble hash that could be made from the bright red pistils on Apollo 13’s colas.

Aroma/Taste: Thankfully Apollo 13 has a great effect because her aroma during flowering time will leave you thinking you left the lid of the trash when you enter your garden.
