Humboldt OG Strain Overview
Humboldt OG is an evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain that is an Afghani descendant cultivated in the infamous Humboldt area. This upbeat, buzzy strain has roots in Northern California's fertile Humboldt County, and although its exact genetics and breeder aren't documented, this bud may have a connection to an Afghani indica landrace. The strain emerged from Northern California's marijuana heartland, with Humboldt County being part of the famed Emerald Triangle, the largest cannabis-cultivating locale in America.
Humboldt OG stands out right away with large, chunky flowers that tend to have an irregular formation when trimmed, ranging from roughly spherical to spade-like. They have a tight, indica-type bud structure, with small leaves that spiral tightly inward toward their central core. The leaves themselves are a dark shade of forest green and are threaded through with brown pistils. Finally, a dense cover of white trichomes gives these flowers an icy appearance and makes them very sticky and hard to break up by hand. The strain has an aroma that matches the flavor, with a deep sweet earth smell that's beautifully accented by fragrant florals and a touch of slightly pungent woodiness.
With a sweet earthy flavor and clear-headed effects, Humboldt OG is the perfect choice for any lover of classic hybrid effects who appreciates a great flavor. The strain's mysterious background hasn't stopped it from becoming popular around the world, establishing itself as a sought-after cultivar among cannabis enthusiasts and medical patients alike.

Humboldt OG Strain Growing Information
Humboldt OG can be grown indoors or out, although successful outdoor cultivation requires a semi-humid climate with consistent daytime temperatures between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The crops tend to grow short and bushy with strong lateral branching; growers should regularly 'top' their plants by trimming away any broad fan leaves that could prevent light and air from reaching any low-growing flowering nodes. Humboldt flowers within 7 to 8 weeks when grown indoors. The strain can be cultivated indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 53 days. The plant is considered moderately easy to grow and suitable for both novice and experienced cultivators. Indoor yields are typically moderate to high, while outdoor plants can produce substantial harvests when given proper care and optimal growing conditions.
