Tahquitz OG
Also known as: Tahquitz, Tahquitz OG Kush
Tahquitz OG Strain Overview
Tahquitz OG is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing Pre-98 Bubba Kush with a hybrid of Blue Dream and OG Kush. Named after the legendary Native American shaman Tahquitz and inspired by Tahquitz Peak in Southern California's San Jacinto Mountains, this strain carries both cultural significance and geographical heritage. The strain was originally bred by Johnny N., a breeder associated with Elev8 Seeds who lived near Tahquitz Peak and drew inspiration from the area's mountainous terrain and Native American folklore. According to legend, Tahquitz was a powerful shaman who became the guardian spirit of all shamans but was eventually banished to the San Jacinto Mountains where his spirit is said to still reside.
Tahquitz OG is renowned for its psychedelic and heady effects, making it particularly popular among cannabis enthusiasts seeking a cerebral adventure. The strain produces oversized, spade-shaped olive green buds with purple undertones, light amber hairs, and a thick coating of frosty white crystal trichomes. Its complex terpene profile contributes to its distinctive sweet and fruity blueberry flavor with subtle floral exhale notes, complemented by an earthy, herbal aroma with spicy floral undertones. The strain has gained recognition in Southern California cannabis circles, particularly around Palm Springs, where it has become a staple in large outdoor gardens due to its impressive yields and unique characteristics.

Tahquitz OG Strain Growing Information
Tahquitz OG is considered suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation with moderate growing difficulty. Indoor flowering time is approximately 9-10 weeks (63-70 days), while outdoor harvest typically occurs in late October (around October 23-26) in Southern California climates. The strain responds well to heat and is not recommended for LED lighting unless in very warm climates. Colder temperatures can cause stalks to turn dark pink/purple with slight flavor alterations. Expected yields are described as heavy, with outdoor grows producing enhanced weight compared to indoor cultivation. Plants benefit from structural support due to substantial cola development and typically exhibit a 1.5x to 2x stretch during the flowering transition. The strain thrives in warm, sunny conditions and has become particularly well-adapted to Southern California's mountainous desert regions at elevations around 4,000-4,500 feet.
