Kosher Mids by 517 Legend Seed Co
OG Kush × Unknown Strain × Goku SSJ4
Kosher Mids is a predominantly indica cultivar developed by 517 Legend Seed Co, emerging in the early 2020s. This strain combines classic OG genetics with boutique lines, resulting in a familiar yet refreshed profile appreciated by growers for its resin production and appealing bag appeal.
Appearance
Kosher Mids typically presents as a compact to medium-statured plant with a stout central stem and tightly spaced nodes, favoring dense bud development. Best phenotypes yield chunky, golf-ball to soda-can shaped colas with a high calyx-to-leaf ratio. Trichome coverage is notable, frosting the buds, and pistils mature to copper hues. Under cooler late-flower temperatures, some plants may exhibit lavender or eggplant coloration.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma is characterized by an initial assertive OG-style fuel note, reminiscent of petrol and lemon zest, layered with pine and black pepper. This is complemented by a sweeter ribbon that suggests candied citrus, underripe mango, or guava. When ground, the aroma intensifies, revealing musk and earthy undertones beneath the fruit and gas notes. Flavors often translate to a gas-first, fruit-second, and earth-third experience.
Effects
This cultivar is noted for providing a euphoric lift, particularly in phenotypes that lean towards fruit-gas profiles. While the source material indicates a couchlock potential in OG-leaning phenotypes, the euphoric aspect is a commonly reported outcome.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
The terpene profile is influenced by its lineage, with OG Kush contributing a triad of beta-caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene. These are often accompanied by pinene and eucalyptol. THC levels typically range from 18-25%, with CBD content below 1%.
Origins & Lineage
Kosher Mids is credited to 517 Legend Seed Co and is understood to be a hybrid with a strong indica leaning. Its genetic makeup is reported to include OG Kush (clone-only) crossed with lines from an Unknown Strain (Original Strains) and Goku SSJ4 (Grow Today Genetics). This combination aims to balance traditional OG characteristics with sweeter, fruit-forward notes.
Growing
As a mostly indica, Kosher Mids generally grows with a compact structure, making it suitable for indoor cultivation and techniques like topping and scrogging. It is noted for resin-forward plants and dense bud stacking. Growers recommend defoliation to manage canopy density and reduce the risk of mold in the chunky colas.
