Chem Dawg 04
Also known as: Chem Dawg #4, Chemdawg 04
Overview
Chem Dawg 04 is a specific phenotype within the legendary Chemdawg family, created by Apothecary Genetics through crossing Chem D male with Chem 04. This hybrid represents a modern interpretation of the classic Chemdawg genetics that originated from mysterious bag seeds found at a Grateful Dead concert in 1991. The original Chemdawg story involves a grower named 'Chemdog' who obtained 13 seeds from a bag of premium cannabis, eventually leading to several famous phenotypes including Chem 91, Chem D, and Chem 4. Chem Dawg 04 inherits the characteristic diesel-like aroma and potent effects that made the Chemdawg family legendary in cannabis culture. The strain typically displays dense, resinous buds with orange hairs and a thick coating of trichomes. Its pungent, fuel-forward aroma combines sharp chemical notes with earthy pine, citrus zest, and subtle hints of sour fruit. This particular phenotype maintains the balanced hybrid characteristics of its lineage, offering both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation that has made Chemdawg genetics foundational to many modern cannabis strains.
