Motor Grease
Also known as: Motor Grease OG
Motor Grease Strain Overview
Motor Grease is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity among enthusiasts for its distinctive aroma and balanced effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, but it is generally accepted to have emerged in the early 2010s from the West Coast cannabis scene. Its name derives from its unique terpene profile, which some users describe as reminiscent of motor oil or industrial lubricants combined with fuel-like undertones, creating an aroma that is both pungent and intriguing.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds that are dark green with occasional purple hues and a heavy coating of trichomes. The buds are often chunky and tightly packed, with orange pistils weaving through them. Motor Grease is known for its robust growth structure and relatively high resin production, making it appealing to both recreational users and concentrate producers. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, it has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities.
Motor Grease is considered a well-balanced hybrid, though it often leans slightly toward indica effects in its physical relaxation. The strain's effects are typically described as creeping and long-lasting, with users reporting a gradual onset that builds to a sustained experience. Its unique flavor and aroma profile sets it apart from more common citrus or sweet strains, appealing to those who enjoy gassy, diesel-like cannabis varieties. The strain remains somewhat niche but is occasionally available in dispensaries in legal markets, particularly in regions with strong OG and diesel strain traditions.

Motor Grease Strain Growing Information
Motor Grease is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October. Indoor yields are moderate to high, averaging 14-18 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-20 ounces per plant in optimal conditions. The strain prefers a warm, dry climate with good airflow to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to moisture issues. Plants tend to be medium in height with strong lateral branching, responding well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training. Motor Grease thrives in both soil and hydroponic setups and benefits from proper nutrient management during flowering to maximize resin production.
