Also known as: Mendo Dawg, Mendo Dog
Mendodawg Strain Overview
Mendodawg is a hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from the cannabis-rich Mendocino County region of Northern California with the popular Chemdawg lineage. The strain was developed to create a potent, flavorful variety that maintains the cerebral effects of its sativa heritage while incorporating the physical relaxation of its indica components. While its exact breeding history isn't fully documented, it's widely believed to be a cross between Chemdawg and a local Mendocino County strain, possibly incorporating genetics from the famous Emerald Triangle growing region.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dark green foliage often accented by purple hues and vibrant orange pistils. Mendodawg is known for its thick trichome coverage that gives the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance. The nugs are usually compact and chunky, with a structure that reflects its hybrid nature—not as tightly packed as pure indicas but denser than many sativa-dominant varieties.
Mendodawg has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its balanced effects and complex flavor profile. The strain is particularly noted for its pungent aroma that combines fuel-like notes with earthy undertones, making it distinctive among Chemdawg derivatives. While not as widely commercialized as some mainstream strains, it maintains a dedicated following in Northern California and among connoisseurs who appreciate its regional heritage and reliable effects.

Mendodawg Strain Growing Information
Mendodawg is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants in suitable climates are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with plenty of sunlight and low humidity to prevent mold issues.
Indoor growers can expect medium to high yields with proper care, while outdoor plants in optimal conditions can produce substantial harvests. The plants tend to grow to a medium height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Mendodawg benefits from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration. The strain is somewhat resistant to common pests and molds but requires good air circulation, particularly during the flowering stage when the dense buds can be susceptible to bud rot in humid conditions.
