V3
Also known as: V3 OG, V3 Kush
What is the V3 strain?
V3 is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
V3 is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from California's medical cannabis scene. The strain's exact genetic origins are somewhat obscure, with breeders typically describing it as a stabilized phenotype selection from a complex OG Kush lineage. The 'V3' designation is believed to refer to 'Version 3,' indicating it represents the third iteration or stabilization of this particular genetic expression. The strain gained popularity in West Coast medical dispensaries before spreading to recreational markets in legalized states.
Visually, V3 presents with dense, conical buds that display a classic OG structure. The flowers are typically medium to dark green with occasional purple hues that emerge under cooler temperatures. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange pistils provide visual contrast. The strain's aroma profile combines earthy, pine, and diesel notes characteristic of its Kush heritage, with some phenotypes expressing subtle citrus undertones.
V3 is noted for its balanced effects that combine physical relaxation with cerebral stimulation. The strain has developed a reputation among cultivators for its consistent performance and resin production. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, V3 maintains a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate classic Kush varieties with modern stabilization.

How do you grow V3?
V3 is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-700 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. V3 responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. The strain has moderate resistance to common pests and molds but requires good air circulation, particularly during the flowering phase when dense buds can be susceptible to bud rot in humid conditions.
