Also known as: Snake Eyes OG, Snake Eye OG, Snake Eye
Snake Eyes Strain Overview
Snake Eyes is a boutique indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has circulated in legal markets since the late 2010s, known for its complex genetics and potent effects. The strain name references the gambling term for rolling two ones, hinting at its heavy, eye-drooping relaxation properties. Multiple breeders have released different versions of Snake Eyes, creating some variability in lineage, but most expressions maintain similar characteristics. Born in Los Angeles' Arts District in 2014 by Clade9, one prominent version crosses Bubba Skywalker with Phoenix OG (or ML11 in some versions), while another lineage from Mota Rebel Genetics combines GG4/Kosher Kush, Herijuana #1, and Lemon G/Lemon Thai. The strain is considered rare and challenging to cultivate, making it a true craft cannabis variety. Snake Eyes produces dense, resinous flowers with forest-green coloration highlighted by darker greens and purple hues, featuring bright orange pistils and a heavy coating of white trichomes. The buds are typically popcorn-shaped to spear-shaped with tight internodes and excellent bag appeal, though yields remain relatively low at around 0.07 lbs per square foot of canopy.

Snake Eyes Strain Growing Information
Snake Eyes is considered a challenging strain to cultivate, requiring experienced grower skills. It has a flowering time of 63-70 days (9-10 weeks) and grows vigorously but produces small, resinous flowers with low yields around 0.07 lbs per square foot. The plant finishes at 3-4 feet tall when vegged for 3 weeks, with relatively short internodal spacing and medium to broad purple leaves. It prefers moderate temperatures in the low-to-mid 70s°F and moderate humidity of 55-65% RH. The strain has minor light sensitivity, requiring light levels around 600-700 umols to avoid light burn. It's a slow water drinker, best watered using a tensiometer or by tracking daily feed volume with 10-20% runoff. Snake Eyes feeds heavier during the stretch phase but normalizes during finishing. The strain is quite rare with seeds difficult to find, making clones the preferred propagation method. Can be grown both indoors and outdoors.
