Prince
Also known as: Prince OG
Prince Strain Overview
Prince is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile. The strain's exact origins are somewhat uncertain, with different sources attributing its development to various breeders, though it is generally accepted to be a cross between OG Kush and an unknown indica-dominant strain. This genetic combination results in a plant that exhibits characteristics of both its indica and sativa heritage, making it versatile for different consumption preferences.
The strain produces medium to large buds that are typically dense and resinous, with a forest green coloration often accented by vibrant orange pistils. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty appearance. Prince is known for its complex aroma that combines earthy, pine, and citrus notes, with some phenotypes exhibiting subtle diesel undertones. The flavor profile generally mirrors the aroma, delivering a smooth smoke with earthy pine flavors complemented by hints of citrus on the exhale.
Prince has maintained a consistent presence in cannabis markets despite not achieving the widespread fame of some other strains. Its balanced effects and reliable performance have made it a favorite among both recreational users and medical patients seeking moderate relief without overwhelming sedation. The strain's name is believed to reference its 'royal' lineage from OG Kush, though some sources suggest it may also nod to the musician Prince, though this connection is speculative.

Prince Strain Growing Information
Prince is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid-October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields average 14-16 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-18 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. Prince prefers a Mediterranean climate with plenty of sunlight and low humidity. The plants tend to stay medium in height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold and providing adequate support during flowering as buds can become quite dense. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields.
