About OG Kush
OG Kush, originally known as "Premium OG Kush," was first developed in Florida during the early ‘90s by crossing a marijuana strain from Northern California with Chemdawg, Lemon Thai, and a Hindu Kush plant from Amsterdam. This hybrid strain has a distinct terpene profile that gives it a complex aroma of fuel, skunk, and spice. The name "OG" is often thought to stand for "Original Gangster" due to the strain's authenticity and potency.
OG Kush is known for its lemon-pine-fuel scent and high THC levels, providing a balanced head and body effect. It is commonly used in the evening to help alleviate stress. The strain made its way to the West Coast in 1996 when Matt “Bubba” Berger brought it, along with "The Bubba," to Los Angeles. It has since become a staple in the cannabis industry and has been used to create popular strains such as GSC and Headband.
OG Kush has various phenotypes, including Tahoe OG, SFV OG, and Ghost OG, each with its own unique characteristics and effects. It remains one of the most renowned and widely used strains worldwide.
