Phoenix OG

The strain behind this Phoenix OG flower comes from Predator OG crossed with Afghan Ghost, on both Leafly‘s and AllBud‘s accounts. Leafly also records the strain as Phoenix, Royal Phoenix, Phoenix OG Kush and Phoenix Kush, and AllBud as Phoenix Kush.

Predator OG meets Afghan Ghost

Leafly lists Phoenix OG as a hybrid, and its write-up calls it indica-dominant, rare and potent, with a long-lasting high. AllBud labels it an indica dominant hybrid and calls it a very potent, buzzing strain. For other indica-leaning strains, our best indica strains guide runs through six classics.

Vanilla, diesel and fresh pine

Leafly’s flavour tags are ammonia, vanilla, diesel and earthy, and its write-up describes a pungent, earthy flavour with a hint of vanilla and ammonia. One Leafly reviewer notes strong vanilla and ammonia smells in the bag and a mild earthy, vanilla taste when smoked. Another describes a sweet, vanilla-like taste with a piney smell like fresh-cut grass.

AllBud’s flavour tags are herbal, pine, spicy, sweet and woody. Broken apart, the buds give off earthy woods and fresh pine with spicy floral accents, AllBud says, and the flavour is sweet and flowery with a light spicy-herb touch on the exhale.

Spade-shaped, minty green buds

Spade-shaped and minty green, the buds AllBud describes carry thin orange hairs and a coating of milky amber trichomes. Its reviewers describe sticky buds with a herbal pine smell and a nice green colour with red and orange hairs.

Leafly’s THC and myrcene note, AllBud’s THC figure and the high it describes

Leafly’s write-up puts THC at 20% and names myrcene as the dominant terpene, while AllBud shows THC at 21%. Leafly’s effect tags are uplifted, happy and relaxed, and its write-up adds tingly and hungry; hungry is tagged on both sites, and our guide to what drives the munchies looks at it.

AllBud says the high builds slowly, arriving as lifted euphoria and then a relaxing body buzz. AllBud’s effect tags include body high, hungry, uplifting and relaxing. Health Canada’s lower-risk use guidelines put the earliest return to driving at 6 hours after using cannabis.
