Also known as: Goku OG, Goku Kush
What is the Goku strain?
Goku is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Goku is a relatively rare cannabis strain named after the protagonist of the popular Dragon Ball anime series. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with limited documentation available from breeders. It appears to have emerged in the late 2010s within the California cannabis scene, though some sources suggest it may have been developed earlier by underground breeders. The strain gained attention primarily through word-of-mouth among cannabis enthusiasts rather than through large-scale commercial distribution.
Goku typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance characterized by vibrant orange pistils weaving through forest-green calyxes. The flowers are often heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty, crystalline appearance. The strain's name reflects its purported effects, which some users describe as providing a 'super saiyan' level of energy and focus, though these claims should be interpreted cautiously as subjective user experiences.
Notable features include a complex aromatic profile that combines earthy, pine, and citrus notes with subtle diesel undertones. The strain's rarity means that consistent phenotypes can be difficult to find, and there is significant variation between different growers' versions of Goku. Due to its limited commercial availability, much of the information about this strain comes from user reports rather than laboratory testing or formal breeding documentation.

How do you grow Goku?
Goku is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, primarily due to its rarity and inconsistent genetics. Flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed, though it can also be grown outdoors in Mediterranean climates.
Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Plants tend to be medium in height, reaching 120-160 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to moisture-related issues. Nutrient requirements are moderate, and growers should be cautious with nitrogen during flowering. Due to genetic variability, phenotype selection is important for consistent results.
