LA Sauce Kush
Also known as: LA Sauce, LA Sauce OG
LA Sauce Kush Strain Overview
LA Sauce Kush is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from the Los Angeles cannabis scene in the early 2010s. The strain represents a carefully crafted cross between two prominent West Coast genetics: LA Confidential, a multiple Cannabis Cup-winning indica, and OG Kush, the legendary hybrid that has influenced countless modern strains. This combination creates a strain that embodies the best characteristics of both parent lines while developing its own distinct profile.
The strain is characterized by dense, resinous buds that display a striking visual appearance. The flowers typically feature deep green coloration with occasional purple hues, complemented by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of crystalline trichomes. The name 'Sauce' refers to the strain's exceptionally high resin production and terpene content, which gives the buds a sticky, sappy texture. LA Sauce Kush has gained popularity among both recreational users and medical patients for its balanced effects and complex flavor profile.
While not as widely documented as some mainstream commercial strains, LA Sauce Kush has developed a dedicated following in California and has gradually spread to other legal markets. The strain represents the ongoing evolution of Kush genetics in the modern cannabis landscape, combining traditional breeding techniques with contemporary cultivation practices to produce a consistent, high-quality hybrid.

LA Sauce Kush Strain Growing Information
LA Sauce Kush is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are generally good, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable climates.
The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity, particularly during flowering to prevent mold. Plants tend to stay relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. LA Sauce Kush responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining proper air circulation and humidity control during flowering due to the dense, resinous bud structure. The strain is suitable for both soil and hydroponic growing systems.
