Watermelon Jam
Also known as: Watermelon Jam OG
Watermelon Jam Strain Overview
Watermelon Jam is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing Watermelon Zkittlez with an unknown OG Kush phenotype. The strain emerged in the late 2010s as breeders sought to combine the fruity terpene profile of Zkittlez varieties with the potent effects of OG Kush genetics. While its exact breeding history remains somewhat obscure, Watermelon Jam has gained popularity in both medical and recreational cannabis markets for its distinctive flavor profile and balanced effects.
The strain produces medium-sized, dense buds that typically display a vibrant 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 bright orange pistils that contrast against the darker foliage. Watermelon Jam plants tend to have a moderate internodal spacing and produce a generous amount of resin, making them suitable for extraction purposes.
Notable characteristics include its pronounced watermelon and tropical fruit aroma, which is unusual among cannabis strains and makes it particularly distinctive. The flavor profile carries through strongly when consumed, with sweet, fruity notes dominating the experience. The strain's effects are typically described as balanced, providing both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation without overwhelming sedation for most users.

Watermelon Jam Strain Growing Information
Watermelon Jam is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are generally moderate to high, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable climates.
The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity, particularly during flowering to prevent mold. Watermelon Jam can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. Plants typically reach a medium height of 100-150 cm indoors and can grow taller outdoors if not trained. Special considerations include maintaining proper air circulation due to the dense bud structure and monitoring for pests that may be attracted to the sweet aroma. Training techniques like topping and low-stress training can help maximize yields and manage plant height.
