What is the Chemdog #4 strain?
Chemdog #4 is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 30.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Chemdog #4 is a legendary cannabis strain that emerged from the original Chemdawg lineage, born from seeds found in a bag of Dog Bud purchased at a Grateful Dead concert in 1991. Developed through selective breeding of those original seeds, Chemdog #4 became one of the most prominent phenotypes in the Chem family. This predominantly indica strain (60% indica / 40% sativa) has gained widespread popularity across the United States and is recognized for contributing to the creation of other iconic strains such as OG Kush, Sour Diesel, Stardawg, and BlueChem. The strain is a hybrid cross between Chemdog and an unknown indica strain, resulting in a balanced hybrid that offers both relaxation and euphoria. Chemdog 4 plants typically produce dense, resinous buds with a pungent and earthy aroma, often covered in trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Its rare genetics produce premium cannabis with large resin production, making it ideal for high-quality extracts and concentrates.
