What Platinum OG is
Leafly calls Platinum OG an indica-dominant hybrid and one of the "heaviest" strains around, and says it is purported to stem from Master Kush, OG Kush and a third, unknown parent. AllBud gives the same 3 parents and rates it 75% indica, and Leafly files it under indica (see what these labels really mean).
Its exact origin is murky. SeedFinder lists a Platinum OG from Apothecary Genetics and maps it as Platinum Kush x Joe's OG Kush, with Master Kush (marked "probably") behind Platinum Kush and an SFV cut of OG Kush behind Joe's OG, so both sides lead back to the same 2 Kush lines. SeedFinder records a 2nd place for Apothecary's version in the indica category of the 2016 Santa Cruz Cup, and the breeder lists 9 weeks of indoor flowering and an outdoor finish in early October.
Look, smell and taste
Leafly describes plump, lime green flowers with prominent orange hairs and a platinum coating of crystals, which fits the name. Reviewers' top flavour tags are earthy, pine and pungent; AllBud adds diesel, spice and coffee notes with a herbal edge, and Apothecary Genetics compares the taste to fresh pine nuts. In Leafly's lab data, myrcene leads, followed by limonene and caryophyllene.
Effects people report
Across more than 1,000 ratings, Leafly reviewers most often report feeling sleepy, relaxed and tingly, with dry mouth, dry eyes and dizziness as the main negatives. Leafly describes a brief, heady onset that settles into strong physical sedation suited to night-time, and AllBud mentions a calming body buzz with couch-lock, euphoria and heavy sleepiness.
Effects vary by person and dose. Health Canada's lower-risk cannabis use guidelines suggest lower-THC products and no driving for at least 6 hours after use.
How strong is Platinum OG?
Leafly lists about 19% THC and rates it above average, while AllBud says it easily tops 20% and has reportedly reached 24% in some tests, with CBD under 1%. Every batch differs, so check the label.
Similar strains
Its 2 named parents are OG Kush and Master Kush. Breeders have also crossed it onward: among its 19 direct descendants, SeedFinder lists Member Berries, a Platinum OG x Granddaddy Purple cross from Valley Exclusives, and Leafly names Platinum Bubba Kush and Mango Madness as offspring.
