Magic Marker
Also known as: Magic Marker OG
What is the Magic Marker strain?
Magic Marker is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and chemical and citrus flavor profile.
Magic Marker is a potent hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing the classic OG Kush with the exotic Tangie. This strain emerged in the early 2010s from California's competitive cannabis breeding scene, where breeders sought to combine OG Kush's powerful effects with Tangie's distinctive terpene profile. The strain gained popularity for its unique aromatic qualities and balanced effects that appeal to both recreational and medicinal users.
The strain's name derives from its distinctive aroma that many users describe as reminiscent of scented markers or permanent markers, particularly the classic 'orange' scented variety. Magic Marker buds typically display dense, chunky structure with vibrant orange pistils weaving through forest green calyxes that are heavily coated in frosty trichomes. The visual appeal is enhanced by occasional purple hues that may appear in cooler growing conditions.
Magic Marker has become particularly notable for its complex terpene profile that creates a multi-layered sensory experience. While primarily known for its marker-like aroma, the strain also exhibits undertones of citrus, fuel, and earthiness that become more pronounced when the buds are broken apart. The effects are typically described as balanced, offering both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation without overwhelming sedation for most users.
