Male OG
Male OG Strain Overview
Male OG is a relatively rare cannabis strain that has generated some confusion and debate within the cannabis community due to its name. Unlike typical cannabis strains cultivated for their psychoactive female flowers, 'Male OG' refers to a specific phenotype or breeding line of OG Kush that was selected for its desirable male characteristics. The strain name is somewhat misleading to consumers, as commercial cannabis products almost exclusively come from unpollinated female plants (sinsemilla). This strain is primarily of interest to breeders rather than end-users.
The strain's history is tied to the legendary OG Kush lineage, one of the most influential families in modern cannabis breeding. Breeders working with OG Kush populations occasionally identified male plants that exhibited exceptional structure, vigor, or terpene profiles worthy of preservation. These males were used to create new hybrids or to backcross into OG Kush lines to stabilize traits. The 'Male OG' designation typically indicates a plant used in breeding programs that carries the classic OG Kush chemotype.
In terms of characteristics, plants labeled as Male OG display the typical OG Kush structure: a somewhat lanky growth pattern with elongated internodes, dark green foliage, and relatively low leaf-to-calyx ratio. When used in breeding, it tends to pass on the distinctive fuel-like, earthy aroma with citrus undertones that defines the OG Kush family. Because it is primarily a breeding tool rather than a consumption strain, detailed descriptions of its effects when consumed are scarce and largely anecdotal.

Male OG Strain Growing Information
Male OG is cultivated almost exclusively by experienced breeders rather than home growers seeking consumable flowers. As a breeding male, it is typically grown to maturity to collect pollen for controlled pollination of selected female plants. The plants exhibit moderate growth difficulty, preferring stable environments with good airflow to prevent mold. Flowering time is approximately 8-10 weeks. Yield information is not typically recorded for male plants since they don't produce consumable buds. The plant can reach medium to tall height, especially if grown outdoors. Special consideration: This strain requires isolation from female plants if seed production is not desired, as pollen can travel significant distances.
