Jon Woo
Also known as: Jon Woo OG, Jon Woo Kush
Jon Woo Strain Overview
Jon Woo is a hybrid cannabis strain named after the famous Hong Kong film director, though its exact connection to the filmmaker remains unclear. The strain emerged in the early 2010s from the West Coast cannabis scene, gaining popularity among connoisseurs for its balanced effects and complex flavor profile. While its precise genetic origins are somewhat debated within cannabis communities, it is generally accepted as a carefully selected phenotype from OG Kush lineage that was stabilized by breeders seeking a distinctive aromatic expression.
The strain produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense, resinous structure typical of Kush varieties. The flowers display a striking appearance with deep forest green foliage contrasted by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of milky trichomes. Jon Woo is noted for its distinctive terpene profile that creates a complex aromatic experience, blending fuel-like undertones with brighter citrus and herbal notes. The strain's balanced genetic profile makes it suitable for both recreational and potential therapeutic applications, though it remains more of a specialty strain rather than a mainstream commercial variety.
Growers appreciate Jon Woo for its moderate cultivation difficulty and reliable performance in controlled environments. The plant tends to develop a bushy structure with strong lateral branching, requiring some training to maximize light penetration and airflow. While not the highest-yielding strain available, it produces quality flowers with consistent cannabinoid and terpene profiles when grown under optimal conditions. Its relative rarity compared to more established Kush varieties contributes to its status as a sought-after strain among enthusiasts who value its unique characteristics.

Jon Woo Strain Growing Information
Jon Woo is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks indoors and finishes outdoors in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields typically range from 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 but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with low humidity when grown outside. Plants tend to reach a medium height of 120-160 cm indoors and can grow taller outdoors if not trained. Special considerations include maintaining good airflow to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure, and some growers recommend low-stress training techniques to maximize yield. The plant responds well to organic nutrients and benefits from a gradual flush before harvest to enhance flavor profile.
