Sour OG Kush

Hybrid

Also known as: Sour OG, Sour Kush, 818 Headband

Sour OG Kush Strain Overview

Sour OG, also known as "Sour OG Kush," is a popular hybrid marijuana strain known to provide a balanced high. Sour OG is made by crossing Sour Diesel and OG Kush. Some sources indicate a three-way cross between OG Kush, Blueberry and Sour Diesel, while others specify it as a 50/50 hybrid that perfectly balances the energizing effects of Sour Diesel with the relaxing properties of OG Kush. The winner of the 2011 High Times Medical Cannabis Cup, this strain has been available in clone and seed form for quite some time and represents a masterful combination of two cannabis legends.

The strain exhibits dense, round, OG Kush-type buds laden with large, sticky trichomes with generally small to medium sized buds that are bright green with neon orange pistils and a white frosting of trichomes. The odor and taste are usually an equal mix of both parents, with sour lemon, pine, fuel, and a distinct "kushy" undertone, creating a complex aromatic profile that combines citrus and pine notes. Often described as a "one-hit-quit" strain, Sour OG starts with an energetic head high that gradually gives way to a relaxing body stone.
