Buckfast OG
Buckfast OG
Also known as: Buckfast, Bucky OG
Overview
Buckfast OG is a hybrid cannabis strain created by Mephisto Genetics through crossbreeding Appletizer with 505 Headbanger. This strain packs indica-leaning genetics with a medium average THC content of 20% and negligible CBD levels. Named after the infamous Buckfast tonic wine, this strain delivers fermented fruit funk, gassy citrus, and full-throttle chaos in every hit. Like its liquid namesake, it doesn't just land—it takes over, surging with wild energy before settling into a euphoric haze.
The genetics from Appletizer bring intense colour expression, with phenotypes ranging from deep purple bruisers to neon-green resin bombs, dripping in trichomes like condensation on a well-shaken bottle. The flavor profile consists mainly of sour and sweet notes, finished off with hints of mild diesel. As an autoflowering variety bred by Mephisto Genetics, Buckfast OG represents the modern evolution of automatic cannabis strains, combining the convenience of auto-flowering genetics with potent effects and complex terpene profiles that rival traditional photoperiod strains.

Growing Information
These plants follow an 80-day-long flowering cycle, leading to yields in the range of 425g/m². They reach medium heights, require some strategic pruning and possible LST for optimal results, and are generally considered to be moderately challenging to grow. Always provide proper airflow to prevent any chance of mold. As an autoflowering strain, Buckfast OG can be grown under an 18/6 or 20/4 light schedule throughout its entire life cycle. The strain is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, with indoor growing offering better environmental control. Like most autoflowers, it should be planted directly in its final container to avoid transplant shock. The strain benefits from light, aerated soil and moderate feeding schedules typical of autoflowering varieties.
