Loud OG
Also known as: Loud OG Kush
Loud OG Strain Overview
Loud OG is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its potent effects and distinctive aromatic profile. The strain is believed to have originated from the crossbreeding of OG Kush with another potent indica-dominant strain, though its exact genetic lineage remains somewhat debated among cannabis enthusiasts. The name 'Loud' refers to its strong, pungent aroma that is often noticeable even before consumption, while 'OG' pays homage to its Kush heritage and West Coast origins. The strain emerged in the early 2010s and quickly became favored by both recreational users and medical patients seeking strong therapeutic effects.
Visually, Loud OG typically features dense, resinous buds that are medium to large in size with a classic indica structure. The flowers display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues, often accented by bright orange pistils and a generous coating of milky white trichomes. The strain's most notable characteristic is its powerful aroma, which combines earthy, pine, and diesel notes with subtle citrus undertones. The flavor profile mirrors the scent, delivering a complex taste that includes skunky, fuel-like notes followed by hints of lemon and spice on the exhale.
Loud OG is known for producing a balanced yet potent effect that begins with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation. The strain has gained particular attention in the medical cannabis community, where users report it may help with various conditions. Its high resin production makes it popular for concentrate extraction, and it has been used as a parent strain in several subsequent hybrid developments. While widely available in many legal markets, the exact genetic composition can vary between different breeders' interpretations of the strain.

Loud OG Strain Growing Information
Loud OG is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate with low humidity when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation is recommended for better environmental control, particularly to manage the strong odor during flowering. Plants tend to stay medium in height, reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include implementing strong odor control measures due to the pungent aroma, maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold in dense buds, and providing adequate support for heavy colas. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods.
