True OG
True OG is an award-winning refinement of [[og-kush|OG Kush]] genetics, developed in California during the mid-2000s by Elemental Seeds through self-pollination and selective breeding.
About True OG
Elemental Seeds developed True OG in California during the mid-2000s by self-pollinating and selecting from a high-quality OG Kush line. The goal was to tighten the expression of the original formula while preserving its unmistakable flavor profile. The strain is noted for its adherence to traditional OG characteristics, avoiding the trends of modern dessert-leaning hybrids.
The aroma and flavor profile is defined by notes of pine, kerosene-like fuel, damp earth, sour lemon, and skunk, with the citrus cutting through the heavier gas. Since 2010, the strain has achieved significant recognition in cannabis competitions, including a first-place Best Indica finish and a placement on High Times' top strains list in 2015.
Reported experiences begin with a focused, euphoric, and mentally settled state. As the session progresses, the effects transition into a heavier physical relaxation, with higher-potency batches often described as suitable for evening use.
Plant characteristics
Plants typically exhibit a relatively compact structure for an OG variety, featuring sturdy branching and dense, resin-heavy flowers. Because the strain was developed through self-pollination of OG Kush, growers may encounter phenotype variation regarding stretch, flower density, and finishing times.
