Terpenes & Cannabinoids

GMO OG typically exhibits THC levels ranging from 20% to 28%, commonly averaging around 24%. It contains less than 1% CBD, which works synergistically with THC. The terpene profile is dominated by myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene, contributing to its earthy, pungent, and citrusy aromatic and flavor notes, as well as its reported effects.

Cultivation

GMO OG benefits from its ruderalis lineage, which contributes to a shorter flowering period compared to traditional indica strains, often reduced by 15-20%. This genetic stability also aids in consistent yields. The indica genetics contribute to dense bud structures that are notably heavier than average.

Bred by Atlas Seed, GMO OG is a hybrid strain that incorporates ruderalis and indica genetics. Its lineage draws inspiration from historic strains such as OG, OGKB, and Peanut Butter Breath. This meticulous crossbreeding aims to minimize genetic defects, ensuring robust vigor and a stable phenotype.
