Lava Cake
Broad profile36 listed sources
Lava Cake is a 70/30 indica-leaning hybrid from Thin Mint GSC and Grape Pie, prized for its cocoa-grape dessert flavor and caryophyllene-rich terpene profile. Expect an uplifted, creative start that settles into deep relaxation, sleepiness, and appetite stimulation — making it a favorite for evening wind-down, stress relief, and pre-sleep use among more experienced consumers.

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.
