Honey Bee O.G.
Also known as: Honey Bee OG, Honey Bee OG Kush
Honey Bee O.G. Strain Overview
Honey Bee O.G. is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s, primarily cultivated on the West Coast of the United States. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with most sources indicating it was developed by crossing OG Kush with an unknown indica-dominant strain, possibly related to the Honey or Bee family of cultivars. This genetic combination has resulted in a strain that maintains the classic OG Kush structure while introducing sweeter, more floral characteristics. The name reflects both its lineage and its distinctive honey-like aroma and flavor profile.
Visually, Honey Bee O.G. typically displays dense, conical buds with a forest green coloration accented by vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are often heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty, crystalline appearance that hints at its potency. The strain's leaves may exhibit slight purple hues under certain growing conditions, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during the flowering phase. Growers note that Honey Bee O.G. plants tend to develop a robust structure with strong lateral branching, making them suitable for various training techniques.
Notable features of Honey Bee O.G. include its complex terpene profile that combines earthy, piney notes from its OG Kush heritage with sweet, floral undertones. The strain has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its balanced effects that provide both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation. While not as widely distributed as some mainstream OG varieties, Honey Bee O.G. has maintained a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly in California and Colorado where it was first popularized.

Honey Bee O.G. Strain Growing Information
Honey Bee O.G. is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late 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 performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though it prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to reach medium height (4-6 feet outdoors) and benefit from pruning and training techniques like topping or SCROG to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues.
