What is OG Kush?
OG Kush is one of the most popular cannabis strains in the world.
The OG Kush cannabis strain is especially popular in Southern California.
Marijuana from the OG Kush line has been legally available there for several years and is also prescribed in medical contexts.
So it is no surprise that growing OG Kush strains has been booming in California ever since.
No other cannabis strain has had this level of commercial success since the 1980s.
But what makes the OG Kush strain so special?
OG Kush is known both for its unmistakable aroma and for its psychoactive character.
It is also often used as medical cannabis.
OG Kush is a hybrid strain made up mostly of Cannabis Sativa.
A small amount of Cannabis Indica is also present.
Learn more in our blog post about the differences between Indica and Sativa.
The OG Kush character is often described as lively and active.
That can appeal to people looking for a cannabis strain that is not described as overly heavy.
The exact genetic origin of OG Kush is unclear, but most people follow the theory that it is a hybrid of Chemdawg, Lemon Thai, and Pakistani Kush.
A fresh, lemony aroma is typical of OG Kush.
The mature green flowers grow dense and large, covered with white trichomes.
What is the OG Kush profile like?
Cannabis strains with OG Kush genetics are known for a vivid, full-bodied profile.
Because the plant belongs mainly to the Sativa family, it is often described as lively and expressive.
The THC content of this cannabis strain is almost always above 19%.
OG Kush is therefore a high-THC strain often chosen by experienced smokers.
The CBD content, by contrast, is very low at around 0.3%.
The OG Kush profile is often described as both physical and mental, with a Sativa-like character.
Users often describe the profile as both rounded and uplifting.
After just a few pulls, many users describe a warm, comfortable tone before the heavier side appears.
The bold, aromatic character makes OG Kush a popular choice for an evening joint.
If you do not have much experience with OG Kush cannabis strains yet, take it slow with this one.
OG Kush terpenes for cannabis
Not everyone enjoys cannabis completely pure.
As an alternative, you can smoke your flower with nicotine-free tobacco substitute in the form of herbal blends with terpenes.
Real Leaf herbal blends are 100% natural and contain neither nicotine nor tobacco.
The flavorful herbal blends are enriched with real cannabis terpenes.
That brings aromatic flavor and adds a noticeable botanical character to the smoking experience.
Terpenes are aromatic compounds found alongside terpenoids and help define a plant profile.
In plain language: terpenes help shape the aroma, flavor, and overall character of cannabis.
So when you mix your cannabis with a terpene herbal blend, the overall profile of the session can feel more rounded.
By the way, herbal blends contain neither CBD nor THC.
The herbal blend with OG Kush terpenes is a natural aromatic recreation of the OG Kush strain profile.
OG Kush is known for its layered and distinctive aroma.
When you smoke cannabis with terpene herbal blends, you can expect a more layered aroma profile.
Alternatively, use our pre-rolled paper with terpenes.
The OG Kush glass roll contains a pre-rolled King Size cone.
The pre-rolled paper is enriched with terpenes and lifts the flavor to the next level.
The top 3 cannabis strains with OG Kush
There are many cannabis strains, but OG Kush is especially popular among breeders.
Kush strains have their genetic origins in the Hindu Kush mountains between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
There, cannabis still grows in the wild.
All Kush strains share a very distinctive taste, firm flowers, and high yields.
Some of the most popular OG Kush varieties include:
- Zamnesia
- Dinafem
- Master Kush
OG Kush Zamnesia
OG Kush Zamnesia offers especially intense aromas.
Its stable flowering period is reached after just 8 weeks.
With a pack of Zamnesia seeds, you can grow an impressive cannabis crop in a relatively short time.
This modern classic grows rather low, but very bushy.
A beautiful pine aroma with a powerful scent defines this strain.
The green buds contain a full 20% THC, so this is not one for the faint-hearted.
OG Kush Dinafem
On the American West Coast, OG Kush is a true star among cannabis strains.
Dinafem’s version of OG Kush is especially popular there.
Here too, the THC value is around 20%.
The strong pine scent of OG Kush Dinafem hits the nose immediately.
We recommend using an activated carbon filter so the smoke does not feel too intense.
When smoking, expect a bold, full-bodied profile.
Like OG Kush Zamnesia, this cannabis strain needs only 8 to 9 weeks to form flowers.
However, it grows a little taller and can reach up to 1.2 m.
That is why it is sometimes described as a stretching Indica.
OG Kush Master Kush
Master Kush is an OG Kush strain that belongs more to the old school.
The resin-soaked buds are known for their deep, classic Kush character.
Many users describe it as mellow, heavy, and rounded.
Master Kush needs around 8 weeks to grow indoors or outdoors.
The quality of this strain is very high.
All OG Kush strains have a mellow side, but Master Kush is particularly pronounced.
