Antenna Gorilla Dragon OG Haze by Antenna Seeds
Gorilla × Dragon OG × OG Kush × Haze
Antenna Gorilla Dragon OG Haze, developed by Antenna Seeds, is a sativa-dominant hybrid designed to meet modern potency standards while offering a nuanced sensory experience. It synthesizes characteristics from Gorilla, Dragon, OG, and Haze lineages, resulting in a strain known for its cerebral effects and layered aroma profile.
Appearance
This strain typically presents elongated, spear-shaped colas with calyxes stacked relatively tightly. The buds are generally a green hue, sometimes displaying lavender undertones, especially if exposed to cooler temperatures late in the flowering cycle. Vibrant orange pistils contrast with a dense covering of trichomes, which are a prominent feature.
The buds possess a medium-firm density, indicating structural influence from OG genetics. They break apart into resinous, fluffy pieces. A well-cured product will have a glistening appearance and a texture that is both crisp and pliable.
Aroma & Flavor
The initial aroma is often a blend of sweet citrus and pine, with an incense-like quality reminiscent of Haze strains. Upon breaking apart the buds, notes of gas and spicy pepper emerge, complemented by hints of lemongrass, cedar, and tropical rind. The flavor follows suit, starting with sweet lime zest and pine, transitioning to pepper and a subtle diesel undertone, finishing with an incense note on the exhale.
When combusted, flavors range from citrus-sweetness at lower temperatures to gas and spice at higher ones. Vaporizing can reveal notes of lemongrass, mango peel, and cedar, with a peppery finish. The persistence of brighter top notes is dependent on proper curing and humidity control.
Effects
Antenna Gorilla Dragon OG Haze is characterized by its cerebral uplift and clarity, a signature trait often associated with Haze genetics. While primarily sativa-leaning, the influence of OG and Gorilla genetics provides a grounding element, preventing the experience from becoming overly racy or thin.
The overall effect is described as a modern sativa profile that balances mental stimulation with a degree of body presence, making it accessible to a variety of users seeking cognitive enhancement and sensory engagement.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This cultivar typically tests at or above 20% THC, with CBD levels below 1%. The terpene profile is complex, often led by terpinolene or limonene, supported by myrcene and caryophyllene. This combination contributes to the strain's distinct aroma and flavor characteristics.
The dense trichome coverage, indicative of Gorilla lineage, suggests a robust resin production suitable for extraction. The interplay of terpenes contributes to both the aromatic complexity and the nuanced effects of the strain.
Origins & Lineage
Developed by Antenna Seeds, a breeder known for sativa-forward, high-aroma hybrids, Antenna Gorilla Dragon OG Haze is a composite strain. Its name suggests a lineage drawing from Gorilla (potency), Dragon (spicy uplift), OG (earthy gas), and Haze (cerebral clarity). While a precise parentage is not publicly disclosed, it is believed to be a sativa-dominant hybrid, potentially in the 70/30 to 80/20 sativa-to-indica ratio.
The breeding approach likely involved a Gorilla-type mother crossed with a Dragon OG selection, then refined into an OG Haze line. This hybridization aims to balance potent effects with complex terpene profiles and a clear-headed sativa experience, adapted for modern cultivation.
Cultivation
As a mostly sativa, plants exhibit significant vertical stretch after the light cycle is changed, requiring management techniques like topping and trellising to control height. The flowering period is generally within the 9–11 week range, making it adaptable for contemporary indoor growing cycles.
The strain prefers strong lighting and stable environmental conditions (VPD). Its genetic makeup suggests a robust plant that benefits from growers who can accommodate its sativa growth patterns while managing canopy density to ensure cola development.
