What is the Old Tree strain?

Old Tree is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.

Old Tree is a classic indica-dominant cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its potent effects and distinctive aroma profile. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with most sources tracing it back to the Pacific Northwest region of the United States during the late 1990s or early 2000s. Breeders reportedly developed this strain by crossing traditional Afghani landrace genetics with OG Kush varieties, aiming to create a plant with robust growth characteristics and powerful therapeutic effects. The name 'Old Tree' references both the strain's heritage from older cannabis genetics and the tree-like structure that mature plants can develop.

Visually, Old Tree plants typically display dense, resinous buds with a deep green coloration often accented by purple hues, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during flowering. The buds are usually covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The strain's aroma is complex and earthy, with prominent notes of pine and wood complemented by subtle undertones of citrus and spice. This aromatic profile reflects the strain's terpene composition, which is dominated by myrcene and pinene.

Old Tree has maintained a dedicated following among cannabis enthusiasts despite not achieving widespread commercial popularity. The strain is particularly noted for its balanced effects that combine physical relaxation with mild cerebral stimulation. Growers appreciate Old Tree for its resilience and adaptability to various growing conditions, though it requires some experience to maximize its potential. As with many heritage strains, precise genetic documentation is limited, and some variation may exist between different breeders' versions of Old Tree.
