Strain Breakdown
The Royal Details
OG Kush is one of the foundational strains of modern cannabis, and half the shelf traces back to it. This is the Kingdom's light dep run, sold from a half ounce up to a pound alongside our greenhouse THCA flower.
The short version
- OG Kush is a parent strain, not just a strain. An enormous share of modern genetics descends from it.
- Nobody agrees what the OG stands for. There are three competing explanations and no settled answer.
- This run is light dep, meaning flowering was triggered on a controlled schedule.
- Five weights, from a half ounce to a pound.
Why OG Kush matters
OG Kush emerged in California in the 1990s and became one of the most influential cuts in cannabis. Its importance is less about the plant itself and more about what came after it.
Cross OG Kush with Durban Poison and you get Girl Scout Cookies. Cookies crossed onward gives you Gelato, and Gelato leads to a large proportion of what sits on shelves today. Trace most modern hybrid genetics back far enough and OG Kush turns up somewhere in the family tree.
What does the OG actually stand for
This is argued about endlessly and there is no settled answer. Three explanations get repeated most often.
| Theory | The claim |
|---|---|
| Ocean Grown | That it was grown near the coast in California, as opposed to inland. The most commonly repeated version |
| Original Gangster | That the name came from the same slang usage that was everywhere in 1990s West Coast culture |
| Original | That it simply marked the authentic cut, separating it from imitations circulating under the same name |
Worth knowing before you compare shops
OG Kush is one of the most widely claimed names in cannabis, and plenty of flower sold under it has only a distant relationship to the original cut. That is true across the whole market, not just here. The cultivation label and the lab result tell you more about what you are actually getting than the name does.
What light dep means
Light dep is short for light deprivation. Growers control the hours of darkness by covering the crop, which triggers flowering on a schedule of their choosing rather than waiting for the seasons to do it.
It lets growers harvest more than once a season and finish the plant at a precise point rather than racing the weather. More consistent than open-air growing, and cheaper than running the crop entirely under lamps. It is the opposite approach to light assist, which adds light rather than removing it.
Choosing a weight
| Size | Grams | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| 14 grams | 14 g | A half ounce. Trying the strain |
| 28 grams | 28 g | An ounce. The usual starting point |
| Quarter pound | 112 g | A steady smoker, a month or two |
| Half pound | 225 g | Heavy use, or splitting with others |
| Pound | 450 g | Volume buying and rolling in quantity |
Divide the price by the grams to compare it against anything else. Most of the bulk saving arrives early on the ladder.
Storing it
Airtight, cool and dark. Glass rather than plastic, because plastic holds static and pulls trichomes off the bud. A humidity pack rated 58 to 62% keeps it steady. Break larger weights into smaller jars on arrival and open only the one you are using. Do not freeze it.
New to the Kingdom
OG Kush is a sensible first strain precisely because so much else descends from it. Take the half ounce and you have a reference point for everything else on the site.
Frequently asked questions
What does OG stand for in OG Kush?
There is no settled answer. The three explanations repeated most often are Ocean Grown, referring to coastal California growing, Original Gangster, from 1990s West Coast slang, and simply Original, marking the authentic cut apart from imitations.
Why is OG Kush so well known?
Because of what descends from it. Crossed with Durban Poison it produced Girl Scout Cookies, which led onward to Gelato and a large share of modern hybrid genetics. Trace most contemporary strains back far enough and OG Kush appears in the lineage.
Is OG Kush indica or sativa?
It is generally classified as a hybrid leaning indica. Those labels describe lineage rather than guaranteeing anything, and they vary between sources.
What does light dep mean?
Light deprivation. Growers control the hours of darkness by covering the crop, triggering flowering on a chosen schedule rather than waiting for the seasons. More consistent than open-air growing and cheaper than growing entirely under lamps.
How should I store it?
Airtight, cool and dark. Glass rather than plastic, with a 58 to 62% humidity pack. Break larger weights into smaller jars on arrival and open only the one you are using. Do not freeze it.
Will it show up on a drug test?
Assume yes. Standard tests look for THC metabolites and do not distinguish hemp derived from anything else. If you are tested for work or any other reason, do not use it.
