OG Kush
Fresh off a 2018 Emerald Cup victory (2nd place in the mixed-light category), Josh D's Original OG Kush is making its debut into the legal California cannabis scene.
OG Kush is known for its pure potency which sparks an unparalleled expansive, inspired long-lasting experience for new and veteran cannabis users alike. The plant's genetics stretch back to the Hindu Kush Mountains of Afghanistan and serve as the cornerstone to countless Kush Hybrids that have been inspired by its tried-and-true effect - a heady euphoric and energetic clarity with a full-body floaty feel.

OG Kush is a world-famous strain first propagated by Matt Berger in Florida. The strain was later popularized after Josh Del Rosso, aka JoshD, was able to perfect the growing conditions and introduce the variety into the Los Angeles market. JoshD Farms reports OG Kush users can expect long-lasting, heavy, yet versatile euphoria and skunky-citrus flavor and aroma. The company is now focused exclusively on developing OG Kush-derived strains and products.
JoshD Farms reports an average THC content of 20% from OG Kush, with some indoor grows testing as high as 26%. Myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene are the dominant terpenes of the strain. According to JoshD Farms, phenotypes and offspring that honor OG Kush’s signature effect and flavor profile include Kosher Kush, Triangle Kush, Skywalker OG, and Loompa’s Headband.
Berger said he obtained the originating strain, a ’90s favorite of Snoop Dogg and B-Real of Cypress Hill, in Florida where it was shared exclusively among local growers under the name Kryptonite, or Krippy. Berger, who was the first to cultivate Kush seeds from a random bag of flower, later shared the strain with Del Rosso in Los Angeles. Berger was also reportedly the first to coin the name Kush after a friend called the strain’s especially frosty colas “Kushberries,” with no intentional reference to the Hindu Kush mountains where other Kush strains originate.
OG Kush also came in 1st place for the Weedmaps March Madness competition in 2020.
