Oak Tree
Also known as: Oak Tree OG, Oak Tree Kush
Oak Tree Strain Overview
Oak Tree is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its balanced effects and distinctive woody aroma profile. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, but it is generally accepted to have emerged in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States during the early 2010s. Its name derives from the prominent earthy, woody notes in its terpene profile that many users compare to the scent of an oak forest, combined with its tendency to develop a sturdy, tree-like structure when grown outdoors.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense, compact structure characteristic of its indica heritage. The flowers display a vibrant green color palette often accented by deep purple hues that develop in cooler temperatures, with a generous coating of amber trichomes. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating visual appeal. The leaves tend to be broad with some serration, reflecting its hybrid genetics.
Notable features include its complex aromatic profile that evolves from initial pine and earth notes to reveal subtle citrus undertones upon breaking apart the buds. The smoke is generally described as smooth with a woody aftertaste that lingers. While not among the most widely commercialized strains, Oak Tree has maintained a consistent following among connoisseurs who appreciate its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile that sets it apart from more common citrus or fruit-forward hybrids.

Oak Tree Strain Growing Information
Oak Tree is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but thrives in temperate climates with consistent sunlight. Plants tend to reach medium height (4-6 feet outdoors) with a bushy structure that benefits from pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training to improve light penetration and airflow. Oak Tree is moderately resistant to common molds and pests but requires careful humidity control during late flowering to prevent bud rot. Nutrient requirements are average, with sensitivity to nitrogen overload during flowering.
