Seb's take

Seb Silverback

OG Kush crossed with Ruderalis for a shorter, hardier plant that keeps the potency while losing none of the pine, earth and citrus nose. The high is sleepy, relaxed and calming, an easy, low-maintenance grow suited to those just starting out. Indoor yields run to 550g/m² for the patient.

Where it comes from

Fast Buds took OG Kush and crossed it with ruderalis, a pairing that trades none of the parent's reputation while shortening the plant and hardening it against a rougher climate. The result carries the West Coast pedigree of OG Kush into an autoflowering frame that sets its own schedule. A sensible piece of engineering, this: keep what made the original famous, lose the height and the fuss, and let a beginner grow it without incident.

Nose & flavour

Pine sits at the front, backed by a firm earthiness and a bright edge of citrus that keeps things from turning heavy. It is the recognisable OG signature, resinous and slightly sharp, with none of the sweetness sanded off in the crossing. A confident, woodland nose that carries well and holds its shape from grind to exhale.

The high

The effect runs sleepy, relaxed and calming, an unhurried descent into the armchair rather than anything abrupt. At 23 percent THC it does not want for strength, so treat it as an evening proposition and pace yourself accordingly. A quiet, weighty sort of relaxation that settles the shoulders first and works down from there, best met when the day's obligations are already behind you.

Growing it

Reduced in height to 70 to 110cm and hardier than its parent, she grows easily and asks for little attention, which makes her suitable for anyone only just dipping a toe into cultivation. She finishes in around 63 days. Indoors she yields 450 to 550 g/m²; outdoors the record notes up to 100g per plant given somewhere with little humidity. The genetics are 80 percent indica, 20 percent sativa, with THC at 23 percent. Keep the damp off her and she will look after the rest herself.
