OG Kush
Broad profile31 listed sources
OG Kush is the cornerstone of West Coast cannabis — a potent indica-leaning hybrid from the early 1990s, most commonly traced to Chemdawg crossed with Hindu Kush (and often Lemon Thai). Testing between 18% and 28% THC with myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene leading an unmistakable earthy-pine-diesel-lemon profile, it delivers a bright euphoric lift that settles into deep full-body relaxation and, eventually, sleepiness. Widely reported for stress, anxiety, and pain relief. An evening classic that earned its nickname: The King of Kush.
