OG Kush Strain

OG Kush Strain

OG Kush Strain is an American marijuana classic, a Southern California original with some of the highest THC levels in the world. With a 25:75 sativa/indica ratio, this strain pulls no punches.

Expect a hard, mixed high with intense euphoria followed by serious couch-lock. The plant’s THC concentration can reach levels as high as 19-24%. That just 1 percentage point less than the current record-holder. The cerebral boost from OG Kush is ideal for depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety, while the heavy body high can help with pain and nausea. OG Kush is also used to treat Alzheimer’s disease. Dry mouth and eyes are the most common negative effects, though headaches and paranoia are also possible. This strain is a hybrid, probably a descendant of a female Chemdawg plant and a male Hindu Kush plant. OG Kush, which has given rise to countless West Coast strains, has an earthy, wood taste and a strong pine scent. It’s most popular in California, the Pacific Northwest, and Colorado.

OG Kush is sometimes known as “Premium OG Kush” or even just “Kush,” first cultivated in Florida almost 30 years ago now. The original genetic lineage is not 100% known, but researchers believe that Chemdawg, Hindu Kush, and Lemon Thai  were mixed with an unknown Northern Californian strain to make OG Kush. The secrecy is probably due to the strain’s incredible fame – OG Kush is the single most recognizable and widely-used strain when it comes to medical marijuana. With a nearly balanced composition (55% Sativa, 45% Indica) and mid-high THC levels, it’s no wonder the strain is enjoyed around the world.
