Double OG Strain Information
Produced by Slap Happy Meds, Double OG comes from the lineage of the infamous SFV OG X Big Bud Afgoo strains. It emits a fragrance of harsh citrus and sage with a hint of diesel. The buds have small pebble-shaped forest green nugs with rich amber hairs and a thin layer of milky white trichomes and resin.
What are the Flavor and Effects of Double OG?
Double OG is a unique concoction of citrus, herbal, skunk, and wood.
The effects begin with a cerebral high that brings euphoria and happiness. A tingly sensation follows. The potent body high knocks you flat on your back. You will be pain-free and in a couch-lock. Non-functional, a heavy feeling will drag you to a night of deep and peaceful sleep. Due to its sedative effects, this strain is not for the novice user. It is ideally used in the evening or right before bedtime.
What are the Medical Benefits of Double OG?
Double OG is known to be beneficial to those people who suffer from arthritis, asthma, bipolar disorder, chronic pain, eye pressure, headaches, insomnia, muscle spasms, and tremors. Its therapeutic properties include being an analgesic, anxiolytic, anti-depressant, and relaxant.
Negative Effects You Can Expect from Double OG.
Just like any other marijuana strain, Double OG present with side effects such as cottonmouth and dry, itchy eyes. This is common and can be easily remedied. An increase in fluid intake will diminish the reactions. You can also use an eye moisturizer drops to soothe those irritated eyes.
Anxiety, dizzy spells, and worse, paranoia may occur in rare cases. Mild headaches can also be a bother. This is due to overconsumption, so go slow with the doses, especially if you are a first-timer.
How to Grow Double OG?
Seeds of Double OG are not available online. Aspirant growers must get clippings of existing plants or clones from a trusted source. The plant thrives both indoors and outdoors. Outdoors, it prefers a semi-humid climate with daytime temperatures between 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
Indica leaning, Double OG tends to grow short, bushy, and with numerous lateral branches. Growers should prune their crops by trimming away broad fan leaves that can block light and air from nourishing any low-growing flowering nodes. Also, proper support measures (either stakes or dowels) should be installed on the branches to prevent drooping under the weight of its large flowers.
The potency of its aroma may also be bothersome. Odor control measures such as exhaust fans or carbon filters should be placed when grown indoors. Outdoors, choose an area far away from neighbors or people who might find the smell a bit offensive.
You may also try other non-traditional cultivation methods such as hydroponics or the use of water as a medium. With this, nutrients are directly absorbed and help shorten the flowering stage. It also has a significant impact on yield production.
