OG Kush

OG Kush is a legendary strain with a name that has recognition even outside of the hemp world. Despite its fame, its exact origins remain a mystery. Some claim that it’s a cross between the staple Chemdawg and a hardy Hindu Kush landrace, while others claim that OG Kush emerged from undocumented bag seeds as a distinct phenotype of some other existing strain. Additionally, the meaning of its name is disputed — the “OG” has alternatively been said to stand for “original gangster,” connoting its status as an old-school building block strain; “ocean grown,” in reference to its origin along the California coast; or even “OverGrown.com,” a now-defunct website that served as a resource for countless hemp growers. One thing that cannot be disputed, however, is OG Kush’s potency — its THC composition has been consistently measured at between 20% and 25%. OG Kush has medium to large-sized nugget-like buds that have a dense, indica-like structure, with yellowish-green leaves, although certain phenotypes may show traces of purple. Vibrant orange pistils, meant to catch pollen from fertilizing male plants, stand out against these colorful flowers. The buds are covered in trichomes that lend them a silvery-white appearance and make them very sticky to the touch; when preparing buds for a joint or a pipe, users may want to use a grinder. When properly cured, the buds have an earthy, musty scent that is accented by some citrusy brightness. The overall impression is of a hoppy craft beer. Burning or breaking open the buds offers more of a pine-like odor. The smoke tastes hashy and spicy like a classic indica on the inhale and exhale. OG Kush’s pungent funk may linger for a while after a joint has been extinguished; those looking to remain discreet about their smoking should take the proper precautions.
