Green Apple OG
Also known as: Green Apple, Green Apple Gas, Green Apple Kush
What is the Green Apple OG strain?
Green Apple OG is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and apple and citrus flavor profile.
Green Apple OG is a heavily sativa dominant hybrid (90% sativa/10% indica) strain created by breeders at the infamous Green Apple Co-Op farms in Santa Ana, California. This dank bud has unknown genetics due to breeder secrecy and boasts a moderate THC level ranging from 15-18% on average, though some phenotypes can reach significantly higher potency levels. Exact lineage varies by breeder, but two dominant origin stories recur with Green Apple. One widely circulated account pegs Green Apple OG as Sour Diesel x Pure Kush, a cross that would logically yield fuel-forward base notes layered with fruit-bright top-end terpenes. Another recurring account frames Green Apple as a Green Crack–leaning selection from a Skunk #1 family line. The strain gained prominence during the late-2010s wave of fruit-forward OG hybrids that bridged classic West Coast gas with dessert-like aromatics. Dispensary menus in California, Oregon, and Nevada began listing Green Apple OG more regularly between 2017 and 2020.
Visually, this bud has dense yet fluffy bright neon green buds with sparse dark olive green twisty leaves and thick rich amber hairs and amber undertones. These nugs are dusted with a fine layer of milky white almost amber trichomes and sweet sticky resin. Green Apple OG has a memorable aroma of a freshly baked apple pie and a taste akin to a Granny Smith apple doused in powdered sugar. The strain is particularly noted for its alpha-farnesene, the same volatile found in apple skins and certain hops varieties, which contributes significantly to its distinctive apple-like aroma and flavor profile.

How do you grow Green Apple OG?
The Green Apple strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors. An indoor setup provides a more controlled environment, allowing you to manipulate factors such as light, temperature, and humidity to optimize growth. This is often the preferred method for those looking to maximize their yield and produce high-quality buds. Outdoor cultivation is also a viable option, particularly in climates with long, sunny days. When grown outdoors, the Green Apple strain can reach its full potential in terms of size and yield. The flowering time for the Green Apple strain is typically between 8 and 10 weeks. The average yield and medium flowering time (56 to 90 days) make them feasible for cultivators with some experience. Indoors, expect 450–600 g·m⁻² under optimized LED with CO₂, and 350–500 g·m⁻² without CO₂ depending on veg time. Outdoors in full sun with 200–400 L containers or in-ground beds, plants can yield 600–900 g each. The strain responds well to training techniques such as SCROG and LST for improved yields.
