Yerba Buena
Yerba Buena Strain Overview
Yerba Buena is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (80% indica/20% sativa) developed by Gage Green Genetics through crossing the classic San Fernando Valley OG Kush (SFV OG) with Joseph strains. Named after the Spanish phrase meaning "good herb," this strain represents a modern interpretation of legendary Southern California cannabis genetics. The strain was created to deliver the renowned characteristics of SFV OG while adding unique traits from the Joseph lineage, resulting in a balanced hybrid suitable for various experience levels.
The buds of Yerba Buena display the classic OG Kush structure with rounded, spade-shaped olive green nugs featuring dark undertones and matching hairs. A thick coating of milky amber crystal trichomes covers the flowers, creating a frosty appearance that drips with sweet, sticky resin. The strain's visual appeal is complemented by its potent aromatic profile and moderate THC content, making it accessible to both novice and experienced users seeking the quintessential California OG experience with a distinctive twist.

Yerba Buena Strain Growing Information
Yerba Buena can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with moderate growing difficulty.

The strain produces medium yields with excellent trichome coverage that often surpasses its SFV OG parent. Plants may grow tall and benefit from early training techniques to control height.
