Jade
Also known as: Jade OG, Jade Kush
What is the Jade strain?
Jade is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its uplifted effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Jade is a boutique cannabis strain name used by multiple breeders and regional growers, generally referring to a bright, emerald-green hybrid with clean, uplifting effects and calm, body-light finish. The strain is thought by most of the cannabis community to be a descendant of OG Kush crossed with another Kush variant, though exact genetics remain unclear due to breeder secrecy. Jade emerged in West Coast clone circles in the mid-2010s, prized for its saturated green coloration and clear, daytime-friendly mood lift. The strain exhibits beautiful shimmering appearance reminiscent of glittering jade, with bright green nugs featuring subtle yellow overtones, clear amber hairs, and a thick coating of golden crystal trichomes. Because the name has been applied to multiple cuts over the last decade, consumers may encounter variability in genetics and chemotype depending on source, making certificate of analysis verification important for consistent experiences.
