since we have a chemdog thread and no apparent og kush.... why not. i'm posting the assumed 2 stories of the origins of OG below, but please use this thread for any and all OG Kush related material. I'll dig around my pics and post what i've run, and what i know to be verified pics of OG. all about history in general, so this is pure fun for me.
i'm not an og expert, just a psychotic fiend for it. i've ran primarily just two cuts that have any "purity" to them.. and smoked most every og i could find. still do.
soooo. if i'm just plain wrong about anything, please let me know. we can hash it out right here and clear up some of our collective confusion. i've done my best to stay relevant and factual as possible.
1ST STORY (origins_tk)
"Triangle Kush and OG Kush , both seeds made in south Florida in 1991 in the same garage of Marty. The mother was called Emerald Triangle （in our circle from around ‘87） and that garage was stuffed wall to wall with it , A pack of Hindu Kush seeds that I bought from Neville , Amsterdam in 1989 was being tested after a pre sex test . One of those pre sexed Hindu Kush seeds created a bit of unseen pollen near the AC intake , that managed to make seeds thru out that entire 12 light garage . Those lbs where then sold by myself to a close buddy near Orlando , where he would then piece them out to his circle of friends . One of his buddies would find the Triangle Kush seed and another guy found the Kush seed that would later get named OG Kush once it made its way west to California . I’ve seen countless people claiming or insisting Chemdog is the parent to OG kush but with out a shadow of a doubt it’s not unless they share dna from years earlier or maybe from the Hindu Kush genetics from Neville in ‘89 . The Emerald Triangle strain was given to my old partner from an older head from the Washington area before I ever even knew he was a grower as I was buying pounds of it already to sell in 87-88 . OG is not Chemdog simple facts . Added fact , The Emerald Triangle leaned more towards a earthy spicy , flower smelling , sweet candy like terps and not chemi or fuel like at all . fuel or gassy terps must have came from the Hindu ."
copy and pasted from seedfinder, but thats the story from origins_tk. personally not believing this outright. mainly just see holes... and opportunities to capitalize on the confusion. late. it makes... too much sense for being clear as mud. but moving along.
2ND STORY (?)
on the adam dunn show this dave mann/dave richards character shared his... info. in a series of og origins podcasts where the hosts called and discussed OG with some of the growers involved. josh D and bubba berger, orgnkid, and several others were called in (their story is farther down the line, but was verified on-air).
S1E43 The TRUE History of OG Kush - The Adam Dunn Show
3 acres of underground bunkers and a hashplant backcross breeding program for the modern day 20% thc indica... maybe it's just me being an east coaster, but i've watched meth-amped SWAT teams raid houses over 1 gram of cannabis. 3 acres of underground stank in arizona... would expect everyone involved to either flip or stay in prison.
he (since this guy has two names... "he") claims OGK to be of hashplant thai afghan origin, more specifically a bx3 of hashplant thai afghan that rodelized (selfed). to me i agree with that lineage more, at least in theory. some of his other claims... are harder to believe.
MEH?
i've always known OG to be golf ball nug producing, moderate yielding, long internode spacing, and semi stretchy to very stretchy depending. swollen calyxs, pungent smell, and high calyx to leaf ratio.
the fire cut i had would outgrow everything untrained, and turn into spaghetti madness. in contrast, the hells and the ghost both grow sturdier, and shorter. sfv much like the fire, but i've yet to finish an sfv run. lost the cut before i had it rooted
tahoe and hells both always seemed very closely related, at least in end result (flower), but not in growth patterns or structure. can smell taste and feel the similarity very obviously, despite the claims of hells being crossed to blackberry.
thats about all i can say definitively on OGK traits without just guessing. haven't ran them all and never had the opportunity to sit down and sample them all.
as far as the origin stories, like most of our lore, a lot of it doesn't add up. i've just collected the data and posted it here. if i was to side with any part of this, i believe orgnkid josh d and bubba berger 100%. at least that part of the background is verifiable, and i was on that forum at that time where these cuts were sent out by orgnkid. was a lot like the gsc feeding frenzy, except it wasn'tbottlenecked trash. oops.
personally would love to see what info the pheno community has to share. i know at least one of our more prolific members here has "the" potential cut... and no i'm not telling.
