Snow Dawg
Also known as: Super Snow Dawg, Snow Dog, G6, Super Snow Dog, G-6
What is the Snow Dawg strain?
Snow Dawg is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its energetic effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Snow Dawg is a distinguished sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from the East Coast ChemDawg breeding projects in the United States. This strain represents the culmination of sophisticated cannabis genetics, combining the complex lineage of the ChemDawg family with carefully selected parent strains to create a versatile and potent hybrid. The strain belongs to the renowned ChemDawg family and has earned recognition for being one of the sweetest and quickest to harvest among the original ChemDawg varieties. Snow Dawg was bred by crossing Bubble Chem (itself a cross of Chem Sister and Sagarmatha's Bubbleberry) with a male derived from Massachusetts Super Skunk and Oregon Snow. This genetic combination results in a strain that exhibits the best characteristics of its lineage - the potency and complexity of the Chem family, the sweetness of Bubbleberry, and the robust structure from Super Skunk and Oregon Snow. The strain has gained notable recognition in the cannabis community, including winning 4th place at The Karma Cup 2016 in the Sativa category and being featured in High Times Top 10 in 2008. Snow Dawg produces exceptionally thick, chunky buds with pointed light green colas that appear almost white due to their abundant trichome coverage, giving the strain its 'snow' moniker. The buds are characterized by their spade-like shape, deep green flowers adorned with caramel-colored pistils, and an impressive resin production that enhances both visual appeal and potency.

How do you grow Snow Dawg?
Snow Dawg is considered a moderately challenging strain to cultivate, requiring some experience for optimal results. The strain has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks (54-65 days) when grown indoors. Indoor yields typically range from 2-3 ounces per square foot (approximately 550 grams per square meter), while outdoor cultivation produces yields of less than 5 ounces per plant (under 150 grams). Plants grow short and bushy with strong lateral branches and may require occasional pruning. The strain responds well to training techniques rather than topping, as it produces good yields from main colas and branches out effectively when super-cropped. Growing in soil provides the most pungent aroma and flavor profile, while hydroponic systems produce plants with additional resin coverage and more impressive visual appearance. Snow Dawg thrives in controlled environments with temperatures between 68-80°F (20-27°C) and relative humidity levels around 40-50%. The strain prefers high-intensity lighting due to its sativa heritage. Regular pruning helps maintain proper airflow and light penetration. The strain is available primarily as clones rather than seeds, and can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors in humid climates. Plants typically reach heights of 60-80 inches both indoors and outdoors.
