What is the Westside OG strain?
Westside OG is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Westside OG, also known as "Westside" or "Westside Kush," is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (70% indica/30% sativa) created as a backcross of the legendary OG Kush. This powerhouse strain represents a potent evolution of its famous parent, maintaining the classic OG characteristics while amplifying its relaxing properties. The strain was developed to preserve the essence of the original OG Kush while enhancing its therapeutic potential and ease of cultivation.
The buds of Westside OG are visually striking, featuring fluffy, airy, grape-shaped forest green nugs with thin orange hairs and a generous coating of bright white crystal trichomes. The appearance is complemented by light green tones that become more pronounced due to the thick layer of frosty trichomes. The strain exhibits the classic OG structure with dense, resin-coated buds that demonstrate its high-quality genetics.
Westside OG has earned its reputation as a heavy-hitting strain with THC levels averaging 26-28%, making it unsuitable for novice users or those with low tolerance. The strain's lineage traces back to the backbone of West Coast cannabis genetics, inheriting the robust characteristics that made OG Kush a foundational strain in modern cannabis breeding. Its development represents both a tribute to classic genetics and an advancement in potency and therapeutic value.
