OG Magnum
Also known as: OG Magnum Kush
What is the OG Magnum strain?
OG Magnum is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
OG Magnum is a hybrid cannabis strain that represents a modern interpretation of classic OG Kush genetics. The strain was developed by crossing OG Kush with an undisclosed indica-dominant parent, though some sources suggest it may involve Master Kush or another heavy indica. This combination creates a plant that maintains the distinctive OG Kush characteristics while adding enhanced physical relaxation and resin production. The strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to create more potent and visually striking versions of the iconic OG lineage.
The plant exhibits dense, conical buds with a classic OG structure, though often with increased calyx development. The coloration typically ranges from deep forest green to olive, with occasional purple hues appearing in cooler conditions. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance that reflects the strain's name. Orange pistils weave through the dense flower structure, creating visual contrast. The buds are notably resinous and sticky to the touch, with a firm, compact structure that requires careful handling to preserve trichome integrity.
OG Magnum is recognized for its powerful aroma profile that combines classic OG Kush earthiness with additional sweet and fuel-like notes. The terpene profile is complex, featuring myrcene as the dominant terpene alongside significant amounts of caryophyllene and limonene. This combination creates a distinctive scent that evolves from pungent earth and pine upon initial inspection to reveal subtle citrus and diesel undertones when broken apart. The flavor follows a similar progression, with earthy pine notes dominating the inhale and sweeter, fuel-like flavors emerging on the exhale.

How do you grow OG Magnum?
OG Magnum is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant typically flowers in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate to high, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The plant exhibits a bushy, indica-dominant structure with strong lateral branching that benefits from training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST). Height is manageable, typically reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. OG Magnum prefers stable environmental conditions with moderate humidity (40-50% during flowering) and temperatures between 20-26°C (68-79°F). The strain is sensitive to overwatering and nutrient burn, requiring careful monitoring of feeding schedules. Resistance to common molds and pests is average, necessitating good airflow and preventive measures. The dense bud structure makes proper air circulation particularly important during late flowering to prevent bud rot.
