Bandogge
Also known as: Bandog, Bandog Kush
Bandogge Strain Overview
Bandogge is a potent indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its powerful sedative effects and distinctive genetic lineage. The strain was developed by crossing two legendary parent strains: Chemdawg and OG Kush. This combination brings together the diesel-fueled intensity of Chemdawg with the earthy, piney characteristics of OG Kush, resulting in a strain that has become particularly popular among medical cannabis users seeking strong physical relaxation and relief from various symptoms. The name 'Bandogge' is believed to reference the strain's 'guard dog' like protective qualities against pain and discomfort, though the exact origin of the name remains somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding circles.
Visually, Bandogge plants typically display dense, chunky buds with a forest green coloration often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are usually heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty, crystalline appearance that hints at their high potency. The strain's aroma profile is complex, combining the pungent, diesel-like notes inherited from Chemdawg with the earthy, pine undertones characteristic of OG Kush. When properly cured, Bandogge may also release subtle citrus or lemon accents that add complexity to its overall sensory profile.
Bandogge is particularly noted for its rapid onset of effects, with users typically reporting almost immediate physical relaxation that gradually spreads throughout the body. The strain has gained a reputation for its 'couch-lock' potential at higher doses, making it more suitable for evening or nighttime use. While not as widely commercially available as some mainstream strains, Bandogge has maintained a dedicated following among connoisseurs and medical users who appreciate its reliable, heavy-hitting effects and distinctive genetic heritage.

Bandogge Strain Growing Information
Bandogge is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically have a flowering time of 8-9 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready in late September to early October. Bandogge plants tend to remain relatively compact, usually reaching heights of 3-4 feet indoors and 4-6 feet outdoors, making them suitable for limited space grows. The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors and responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods. Indoor growers can expect yields of approximately 14-16 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants may produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold in the dense buds and providing adequate support during flowering as the heavy colas may require staking.
