Also known as: Cheese OG, OG Easy Skunk
What is the OG Cheese strain?
OG Cheese is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 26.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and cheese and citrus flavor profile.
OG Cheese is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (typically 60-90% indica) that combines the legendary genetics of OG Kush and UK Cheese, a stabilized phenotype of Skunk #1. This cross brings together two titans of cannabis culture: the UK-born Cheese lineage with its distinctive pungent, skunky aroma and the California-bred OG Kush known for its fuel-like diesel notes and potency. The strain emerged during the globalization of cannabis genetics in the 2000s when breeders systematically blended foundational lines. OG Cheese features dense trichome coverage, medium height vigor, and a complex terpene profile dominated by caryophyllene, myrcene, and limonene. The buds are typically spade-shaped, neon green with orange pistils and chunky trichomes, often displaying dense colas characteristic of OG genetics. The strain's popularity demonstrates that the 'funk plus fuel' combination remains a winning formula for both flower and concentrate production, with its reputation riding on sensory intensity and reliable potency that attracts both legacy consumers and new users seeking classic cannabis impact.

How do you grow OG Cheese?
OG Cheese is considered moderately challenging to grow, primarily due to its dense colas, vigorous stretch, and high-odor profile requiring strong filtration. Indoor flowering time ranges from 7-9 weeks (50-70 days), with Cheese-forward phenotypes finishing closer to 56-63 days and OG-forward phenotypes sometimes needing 63-70 days. Indoor yields average 400-600g/m² (14-18 oz per square meter), while outdoor plants can produce 500-1000g per plant (18-35 oz per plant). Plants typically grow to 2-3 feet tall indoors and up to 6-7 feet outdoors. Optimal indoor conditions include day temperatures of 24-27°C (75-81°F) and nights of 18-22°C (64-72°F), with relative humidity around 50-55% in veg and 40-45% in mid-flower, dropping to 35-40% in late flower to prevent mold. The strain exhibits a 1.5-2.0x stretch after switching to flower, making canopy management essential. Outdoor harvest typically occurs in mid-to-late October in northern latitudes.
