Nu G
Also known as: Nu-G, Nu G Kush
Nu G Strain Overview
Nu G is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition primarily within specific regional markets, particularly in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with limited documentation from major seed banks or breeders, suggesting it may have originated as a local or boutique cultivar. Its name is often stylized as 'Nu-G' or occasionally referenced in connection with Kush varieties, though its direct genetic relationship to classic Kush lines is not definitively established. The strain emerged in the late 2010s, coinciding with a period of increased experimentation with hybrid genetics aimed at balancing potent effects with distinctive aromatic profiles.
Nu G plants typically exhibit a balanced hybrid structure, with buds that are dense and resinous, often displaying a forest green color interspersed with vibrant orange pistils. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty appearance. The aroma is frequently described as complex, blending earthy, pine, and diesel notes with subtle undertones of citrus or tropical fruit, depending on the phenotype and cultivation methods. The flavor profile generally mirrors the scent, offering a smooth smoke that translates its aromatic complexity onto the palate.
While not among the most widely documented strains in mainstream cannabis databases, Nu G has developed a reputation among connoisseurs and local growers for its reliable effects and cultivation characteristics. Its relative obscurity in the broader commercial market means that specific details about its lineage and breeding history can vary between sources, and consumers are advised to verify the authenticity of products labeled as Nu G with their local dispensaries or growers.

Nu G Strain Growing Information
Nu G is considered a strain of moderate difficulty to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. It typically has a flowering time of 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. The plants tend to be of medium height, making them manageable for both indoor and outdoor setups, though they may require some training (like topping or LST) to optimize light penetration and yield. Indoor yields are generally average to above-average, with proper care. Outdoor cultivation is possible in temperate, Mediterranean-like climates with a harvest window around mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. The plants are moderately resistant to common molds and pests but benefit from good airflow and humidity control, especially during the late flowering stage.
