What is the Face-Off OG Kush strain?
Face-Off OG Kush is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 26.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Face-Off OG Kush is a potent indica marijuana strain that is a 70/30 indica-dominant hybrid developed from an exceptional OG Kush phenotype. The story of Face Off OG begins in the late 1990s in California when Archive Seeds was gifted with the seeds of an exceptional OG Kush phenotype, which originated from some particularly excellent batches of OG Kush that circulated the underground market in Southern California. The strain takes its name from the 1997 film Face/Off, as the experience this strain has to offer could arguably be compared to losing your face, with its immediate cerebral blast and rush that feels like your face is being replaced by pure euphoria.
Face Off OG boasts a notable genetic lineage that prominently includes OG Kush, characterized by its dense lime green buds and a pleasant aftertaste. Its buds are dense and lime green, covered in red pistils, with a smell and taste that are sweet, earthy, and pine-like. The strain is renowned for its exceptional potency and has influenced an entire generation of modern classics, including Do-Si-Dos and Oregon Lemons, helping lay the foundation for a new generation of Archive Seed Bank genetics that would redefine premium cannabis breeding in the 2010s.

How do you grow Face-Off OG Kush?
Growing indoors, you can expect the Face Off OG strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55-65 days, though most sources indicate flowering time is typically 7 to 9 weeks (approximately 8-9 weeks). Indoor yields are around 350 grams per square meter (10-12 ounces per square meter), while outdoor grows typically produce up to 400 grams per plant (12 ounces per plant). Face Off OG is only available as a clone and requires the expert care and attention of a seasoned grower. The strain thrives indoors under controlled environments, though outdoor cultivation can succeed in warm, dry climates similar to Southern California's, with outdoor harvests typically occurring in late September or early October. These plants grow to a medium/tall height and can reach around 4-8 feet tall, requiring significant vertical space. The ideal temperature is around 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night, with humidity levels kept around 30-50% during both vegetative and flowering stages. Topping and Low-stress training (LST) methods are the best training techniques, and using Screen of Green (ScrOG) setup can maximize light exposure and improve yields. This strain is considered advanced-level cultivation due to its clone-only nature and specific environmental requirements.
