Animal Rescue
Also known as: Animal Rescue OG
Animal Rescue Strain Overview
Animal Rescue is a relatively rare cannabis strain that emerged from the West Coast cannabis scene, particularly in California, during the late 2010s. The strain was developed by breeders seeking to create a potent, medically-oriented hybrid with balanced effects. Its exact origins are somewhat obscure, but it appears to have been bred as a tribute strain to support animal rescue organizations, with some breeders reportedly donating portions of proceeds to such causes. The strain gained a small but dedicated following among medical cannabis users and connoisseurs who appreciated its unique combination of effects and flavor profile.
Visually, Animal Rescue typically produces dense, resinous buds with a complex coloration that includes deep purple, forest green, and occasional orange pistils. The flowers are often heavily frosted with trichomes, giving them a sparkling appearance that hints at their potency. The strain's aroma is complex and layered, combining fuel-like notes with sweet undertones and earthy accents. Growers note that the plants tend to be medium in height with a bushy structure, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation with proper training.
Animal Rescue is known for its balanced hybrid effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation. Users report that the strain provides a clear-headed euphoria that doesn't typically cause excessive sedation, making it suitable for daytime or evening use depending on dosage. The strain's name reflects both its charitable connections and its reported ability to 'rescue' users from various discomforts, though these claims should be approached with appropriate skepticism and individual results may vary significantly.

Animal Rescue Strain Growing Information
Animal Rescue is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity during flowering to prevent mold. Plants tend to stay at medium height (3-5 feet indoors, 5-7 feet outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation and monitoring for pests, as the dense buds can be susceptible to spider mites and powdery mildew if conditions are not properly managed.
