What is the OG #18 strain?
OG #18 is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 26.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
OG #18, also known as "Private Reserve," "Reserve OG," and "OG 18" is a hybrid marijuana strain and a phenotype of OG Kush. Originally developed by DNA Genetics through their Reserva Privada line in the late 2000s, the strain was selected from the first seeds of OG Kush in DNA's catalog, with the female plant No. 18 being so exceptional that they decided to make it available to the public in feminized seed form. This award-winning strain has achieved significant recognition, winning the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2009 and 2010, along with numerous other competitions including the 1st Place Hydro Spannabis 2011 and European Champions Cup 2010. OG #18 takes on a more sour taste than the original OG Kush with at least a third better yield, combining the yield and fuely sour taste of Chem Dawg with OG-Chem power, flowering in 9 weeks with rock hard buds that shine with crystals. The strain represents a refined evolution of the classic OG Kush genetics, offering enhanced resin production and improved commercial viability while maintaining the beloved characteristics that made OG Kush legendary.
