Simply great.

These guys did it right.

Hard hitting, long lasting, great tasting, and slow burning; these are a few of my favorite things.

I really haven't been too impressed lately when it comes to the development of emerging strains. Let's just say, Sin Valley OG Kush has changed my tune.

OG Kush has been around for a long time. The influence of pop culture still has many incorrectly referring to the OG abbreviation as 'original gangster', when it really stands for Ocean Grown. This is an homage to the location of it's origin; the west coast of California near the Pacific Ocean.

A little tip; it's easy to tell when you have a really good original OG Kush strain...it smells like ammonia.

Well-made OG Kush plants produced from non-feminized original heirloom seeds may be difficult to grow if you're not experienced, but in my opinion, are well worth the trouble.

To cut down on the trouble, breeders went to work on this strain.

Since the original OG Kush strains produce lighter, more fragile, and less-dense nuggetry; the goal was to bring traits of beefier sativa strains to breed into OG Kush, increasing hardiness and yield.

Over the years, all this breeding has resulted in some great, and not-so-great buds. I can't begin to tell you how many variants of OG I have seen, even with OG itself being a variant. (Lemon Thai x Hindu Kush x Chemdawg)

But the producers of Sin Valley OG Kush sure found the right mix of breeds here. The flavor that Sin Valley OG gives you is only outdone by it's feeling. On top of that, the look and feel of Sin Valley OG Kush nugs are a lot like the feeling you get, thick and long-lasting.

So very dank, so very good.

Highly recommended.
