OG Kush, also known as “Premium OG Kush,” was first cultivated in Florida in the early ‘90s when a marijuana strain from Northern California was supposedly crossed with Chemdawg, Lemon Thai and a Hindu Kush plant from Amsterdam. The result was a hybrid with a unique terpene profile that boasts a complex aroma with notes of fuel, skunk, and spice. OG often refers to “Original Gangster,” or “Ocean Grown” indicating either the strain’s authenticity or intensity. Many people have different names for the acronym, but real OG Kush should smell like lemon-pine-fuel with a high-THC, mixed head and body effect. It’s often enjoyed in the back half of the day to ease stress.
The genetic backbone of West Coast cannabis varieties, OG Kush arrived in Los Angeles in 1996 when Matt “Bubba” Berger brought it (along with “The Bubba,” which was later used to create the famed Bubba Kush) from Florida to legendary cultivator Josh D. Since then, OG Kush has become a worldwide staple used to create numerous famous strains like GSC and Headband. There are many different phenotypes of OG Kush weed, including Tahoe OG, SFV OG, and Ghost OG.
The world of cannabis evolves without pause, and also that of the different types of resin extractions or preparations from them, which does not stop offering us new things season after season. A while ago we told you about one of these preparations made from cannabis flowers, oil, and resin called Moonrocks, a real THC bomb that is usually reserved for the most seasoned users.
Well, today we present to you an evolution of this product called Snowballs due to the clear resemblance in appearance to…exactly, a snowball. Another “cannabinoid bomb” but in this case oriented towards the medicinal aspect of the plant and its consumption
Resin extractions, a whole world of possibilities
Over the last few years, resin extractions and concentrates have opened up an impressive range of possibilities in the world of producing products derived from the plant. These processes, which involve the separation and concentration of trichomes (the resin glands where essential plant compounds such as cannabinoids and terpenes are produced and stored), have evolved to extract isolated and pure compounds, such as its two best-known cannabinoids, THC and CBD.
This resin, often known as extraction or concentrate, becomes the basis for the creation of various products; From vaping concentrates and tinctures to edibles and topical creams, the possibilities are virtually limitless. In this way, and as we already saw with the aforementioned Moonrocks, one can make various extractions such as dry sieved hashish, BHO, or Rosin Hash and then “play” with them and make a new product.
The versatility of these extractions not only offers various forms of consumption and degrees of concentration of cannabinoids and terpenes but also allows for greater precision in dosage, giving consumers and creators the freedom to explore and personalize their cannabis experience. ways as innovative as they are surprising. In this fascinating world of resin extractions, creativity finds its best ally in shaping products that go beyond conventional limits, offering a unique experience to cannabis enthusiasts. The Snowballs that we present to you today would be a good example.
