OG Upsetter
Also known as: Upsetter OG
What is the OG Upsetter strain?
OG Upsetter is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
OG Upsetter is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the West Coast cannabis breeding scene. The strain represents a deliberate cross between classic OG Kush genetics and more contemporary hybrid varieties, though its exact lineage remains somewhat debated among cultivators. Breeders developed OG Upsetter specifically to combine the potent effects and distinctive flavor profile of traditional OG strains with improved growth characteristics and yield potential.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a classic OG structure—compact, chunky flowers that are often lime green with occasional purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The buds are typically covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature vibrant orange pistils. OG Upsetter maintains the signature aroma profile associated with OG varieties while introducing some unique terpene expressions that distinguish it from its parent strains.
Notable features of OG Upsetter include its balanced hybrid effects and complex flavor profile that has made it popular among both recreational and medicinal users. The strain has gained particular recognition for its consistency when grown under proper conditions and its ability to produce reliable effects across different phenotypes. While not as widely documented as some mainstream OG varieties, OG Upsetter has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly in California and other West Coast markets where OG genetics are highly valued.

How do you grow OG Upsetter?
OG Upsetter is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields are generally moderate to high, producing around 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in suitable climates.
The plant tends to develop a medium height, typically reaching 120-180 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. OG Upsetter responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods, though many growers report best results in organic soil. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors, with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. Indoor cultivation requires good air circulation and careful humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture issues.
Special considerations include the need for proper nutrient management, as OG Upsetter can be sensitive to overfeeding. Many growers recommend using training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration. The strain produces a strong aroma during flowering that requires adequate carbon filtration for discreet indoor grows.
