Mordor OG
Also known as: Mordor OG Kush
Mordor OG Strain Overview
Mordor OG is a potent indica-dominant hybrid strain that has gained recognition within cannabis culture for its powerful sedative effects and distinctive dark appearance. The strain's name references J.R.R. Tolkien's fictional realm of Mordor, alluding to both its dark coloration and its reputation for delivering intense, long-lasting effects. While its exact origins are somewhat obscure within the cannabis breeding community, Mordor OG is generally understood to be a phenotype or variant of the broader OG Kush family, potentially crossed with other indica genetics to enhance its relaxing properties and visual characteristics.
The strain is visually distinctive, with dark purple to almost black buds that are often contrasted by vibrant orange pistils and a heavy coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosted appearance. The dark pigmentation results from anthocyanin production, which can be influenced by cooler temperatures during cultivation. Mordor OG typically produces dense, resinous buds with a complex aroma profile that combines earthy, pine, and fuel-like notes with subtle sweet undertones.
Mordor OG has developed a reputation among experienced cannabis users for its powerful physical effects and long duration. The strain is often described as having a 'creeper' quality, with effects that gradually intensify after consumption. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Mordor OG has maintained a consistent presence in certain regional markets and among cultivators who specialize in high-THC indica varieties. Its potency and distinctive appearance have contributed to its status as a sought-after strain for evening or nighttime use.

Mordor OG Strain Growing Information
Mordor OG is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in suitable climates.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment or Mediterranean-like outdoor conditions with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to remain relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable temperatures during flowering to encourage the development of dark pigmentation, with slightly cooler nighttime temperatures (around 18-20°C) often enhancing the purple/black coloration. The plants benefit from regular pruning to improve airflow and light penetration to lower bud sites. Mordor OG has moderate resistance to common pests and molds but requires careful monitoring of humidity levels during late flowering to prevent bud rot.
