OG Kush

OG Kush is an iconic strain with a long history, having been first cultivated in Florida and then crossed with a Hindu Kush plant from Amsterdam. This hybrid kush packs a serious punch, with a unique terpene profile that produces an intense cerebral high combined with the classic indica effects of deep relaxation and couch-locking. This strain is popular with recreational and medicinal users alike.

Effects

OG Kush is a 75:25 indica-dominant hybrid, producing a surprisingly head-focused high. It begins with a rush of energy and alertness that increases focus and attention span. A sense of euphoria and happiness will settle in, along with a deep body relaxation that can lead to couch-lock and sleepiness. This strain is best enjoyed in the evening, as the intense effects may be overwhelming during the daytime.

Medicinally, OG Kush is used to treat a variety of conditions such as stress, pain, depression, insomnia, and lack of appetite. It is known to produce few adverse side effects such as paranoia or anxiety, though dry mouth and eyes may occur.

Appearance, Aroma, and Taste

OG Kush buds are medium to large and dense, with pale green leaves and a heavy coating of trichomes. The aroma is a mix of earthiness and woodiness, with subtle notes of pine and lemon. The smoke is harsher than usual, with a lingering earthiness on the tongue.
