Magic Marker
Also known as: Magic Marker OG
Magic Marker Strain Overview
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.

Magic Marker Strain Growing Information
Magic Marker is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate. It typically flowers in 8-10 weeks indoors and is ready for harvest by mid-October outdoors. The plants tend to be medium in height, reaching 3-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors. Yields are average to above average, producing approximately 14-18 ounces per square meter indoors or 16-20 ounces per plant outdoors. This strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity, particularly during flowering to prevent mold.
