West Coast OG
West Coast OG
Also known as: West Coast O.G., West Coast OG Auto
Overview
West Coast OG is an autoflowering cannabis strain that represents a modern iteration of the legendary OG Kush genetics, specifically developed from a West Coast line selection crossed with ruderalis to create an autoflowering version. Bred by Fast Buds Company, this strain maintains the classic characteristics of its OG Kush heritage while offering the convenience of autoflowering genetics. The strain carries the legendary status associated with OG genetics, having different varieties consistently awarded recognition at major World Cups, and is valued for its medical properties that allow it to successfully treat stress, depression, migraines, bipolar disorder, and ADD/ADHD.
West Coast OG buds have airy, piecey forest green nuggets with bright orange hairs and tiny milky white crystal trichomes that coat each curly dark leaf. The buds develop a fluffy white coating of trichomes in the last weeks of flowering, with trichome crystals turning amber like caramelized sugar at the end of flowering, creating an appearance reminiscent of being studded with sand from the West Coast. Plants are suited for both indoor and outdoor gardens, reaching manageable heights of roughly 70-100cm, with a burst of growth toward the end of the vegetative phase reaching up to 1 meter in height.
