OG Dog
Also known as: OG Dawg, OG Dog Kush
OG Dog Strain Overview
OG Dog is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition within cannabis enthusiast communities, though it remains less documented than many mainstream varieties. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with most sources suggesting it emerged from the West Coast cannabis scene, likely as part of the broader 'OG' (Ocean Grown) family that includes famous strains like OG Kush. Breeders appear to have crossed classic OG genetics with other potent indica-dominant varieties to create this particular phenotype, though the specific parentage is not consistently recorded across sources.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a classic OG structure—compact, chunky flowers with vibrant orange pistils weaving through forest green calyxes. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, indicative of its potency. OG Dog's aroma profile is complex and pungent, combining earthy, pine, and diesel notes characteristic of OG lineages with subtle undertones of citrus and spice. The flavor follows suit, delivering a smooth yet potent smoke with earthy and piney notes on the exhale.
While not as widely commercialized as some OG variants, OG Dog has maintained a following among growers and consumers who appreciate classic West Coast genetics. Its effects are typically described as balanced yet potent, offering both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation. The strain's relative rarity means that specific phenotypic expressions can vary between growers, and consistent commercial availability may be limited compared to more established OG varieties.

OG Dog Strain Growing Information
OG Dog 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 are moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors and thrives in controlled indoor environments. Plants tend to be medium in height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation with proper training techniques. OG Dog responds well to topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields and manage height. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and maintain good airflow to prevent mold, particularly in dense bud structures. The strain's resin production is typically abundant, making it a good candidate for extraction purposes.
