Under Dawg
Also known as: Underdog, Under Dawg OG
What is the Under Dawg strain?
Under Dawg is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Under Dawg is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its potent effects and distinctive aroma profile. The strain is believed to have originated from the West Coast of the United States, though its exact origins remain somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding history. It emerged during the early 2000s as part of the 'OG' family of strains that became prominent in California's medical cannabis scene, though it has received less mainstream attention than some of its more famous relatives.
The strain is characterized by dense, resinous buds that typically display a forest green coloration with occasional purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The flowers are often heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature vibrant orange pistils that contrast against the darker foliage. Under Dawg's aroma is particularly notable, combining earthy, pine, and diesel notes with subtle citrus undertones that become more pronounced when the buds are broken apart.
Under Dawg has maintained a consistent presence in certain regional markets, particularly in the Pacific Northwest and Northern California, where it has developed a dedicated following among indica enthusiasts. While not as commercially widespread as some other OG varieties, it is valued by connoisseurs for its reliable effects and complex terpene profile. The strain's genetics have contributed to several other hybrid varieties, though it remains primarily available through specialty growers and collectives rather than large-scale commercial producers.
