Kimchi
Kimchi
Also known as: Kimchi OG
Overview
Kimchi is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain created by Symbiotic Genetics, the renowned breeding duo established by The Village and the Budologist in 2014. This strain is the result of crossing STR8 Lemonade with Kombucha, creating a unique genetic profile that combines citrusy diesel characteristics with fruity punch influences. The strain gained recognition when growers were testing multiple phenotypes, with Kimchi standing out as a particularly impressive variety. Despite its name referencing the famous Korean fermented dish, this cannabis plant smells nothing like pickled kimchi, instead delivering complex aromatic profiles that are both fruity and gassy. The strain has earned acclaim in competitive cannabis circles and represents the innovative breeding approach that has made Symbiotic Genetics a leader in the industry. This is a lime green color plant with both orange and brown hairs featured, and as the time for harvest approaches, the hairs become more prominent and more colorful. It is often mistaken for OG Kush because they are so similar in appearance.

Growing Information
Kimchi is relatively easy to cultivate and can be grown successfully indoors, outdoors, or in greenhouse environments. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks. Indoor growers can expect yields of around 12-14 ounces per square meter, while outdoor cultivation can produce up to 16 ounces per plant. The strain is known for developing dense, resinous buds with good trichome production, making it suitable for extract production as well as flower consumption. Proper air circulation is important to prevent mold issues in the dense flower structure.
