Glaucoma OG
Also known as: Glaucoma OG Kush
What is the Glaucoma OG strain?
Glaucoma OG is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Glaucoma OG is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained attention for its potent effects and potential therapeutic applications. The strain's name references its reported ability to help with intraocular pressure, though this should not be interpreted as medical advice. While its exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding history, it appears to have emerged from the West Coast cannabis scene in the early 2000s, likely bred by crossing classic OG Kush genetics with other indica varieties selected for their relaxing properties.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dark green foliage often accented by purple hues and vibrant orange pistils. The nugs are usually compact and covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. Glaucoma OG is known for its complex aroma profile that combines earthy, pine, and citrus notes with subtle undertones of diesel, characteristic of its OG Kush heritage.
Glaucoma OG has become particularly notable among medical cannabis users, though recreational consumers also appreciate its deeply relaxing effects. The strain's reputation has been built primarily through user reports rather than formal clinical studies. It's considered a nighttime strain due to its sedative qualities, and experienced growers value it for its relatively stable genetics and consistent performance when cultivated under proper conditions.

How do you grow Glaucoma OG?
Glaucoma OG is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to stay relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels to prevent mold (due to dense bud structure) and providing adequate support during flowering as buds become heavy. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield.
