This cosmic cultivar is believed to be a cross between two legendary strains: OG Kush and Mars, a mysterious indica strain, though some sources trace its lineage to a crossing of Fire OG and a variety of the classic OG Kush. The strain won 1st prize for Best Concentrate at NorCal's 2011 Cannabis Cup, cementing its reputation in the cannabis community. Mars OG produces very dense buds that are dark green in color, with dark orange to red hairs littering the surface along with trichomes on the thick buds.
