Also known as: Darth Vader OG, Vader Kush
Vader OG Strain Overview
Vader OG is an indica dominant hybrid strain created through crossing the infamous SFV OG with the potent Larry OG. This cross began in 2006 with the combination of SFV OG and Larry OG, and evolved over a laborious process of identifying the best phenotypes to breed forward. By 2009, Vader OG had become a mainstay of the Ocean Grown Seeds roster. Named after one of Ocean Grown Seeds' master growers, this strain has developed a formidable reputation in the cannabis community for its powerful effects.
The strain produces long dense yellow-green nugs with bright fuzzy orange hairs and a coating of tiny amber colored crystal trichomes. Some phenotypes display deep purple undertones ranging from light green to dark green. Vader OG is characterized by its flavor and smell of spicy hash and pepper accented by sweet floral earth and herbs, with terpene profile rich with pinene, spice, and hash. With THC levels that typically hit about 18-25%, although it has been recorded closer to 30%, this strain delivers intense effects that begin with euphoria before transitioning into deep physical relaxation and sedation.
