Absolute all-timer and everything you could ever ask for in a strain. OG Chem (also called Chemdog OG) is one of the oldest and widely-grown strains of all time. I’ve had multiple people who I’ve seshed with say that the smell of it is familiar or reminds them of their childhood; that’s probably because it was most likely what a family member smoked when they were growing up. Crazy isn’t it?
While it definitely tests fairly low in regards to THC percentage, don’t let that fool you: Chemdog OG packs a PUNCH. It’s extremely smooth and not at all difficult to smoke, you want more and more of it as you continue just because of how easy it goes down. On the nose, it is extremely baseline, smelling very earthy and skunky without being too pungent. The flavor, however, is awesome. The main notes received are pretty much identical to the scent; very earthy with a little skunk in the background. After a few hits though, it very quickly melts into a very pleasant sour taste, as well as being fairly gassy. It’s pleasant all around and there’s nothing I would change about it.
The appearance is even better, in my opinion. What really makes Chemdog OG stand out is how fluffy the buds are. While they’re overall still more medium-sized buds (at least compared to many other strains), they’re by no means small; long buds that taper off. Completely covered in sticky white frost (trichomes) and as sticky as you would expect, it has an overall fantastic appearance. Grinds and packs extremely well into both bowls and joints.
After finishing your sesh, expect an extremely pleasant full-body high that gets stronger and stronger as you peak. The high is extremely unique and not something you can experience with most strains. It’s an extremely strong tension-relieving high that courses through your entire body, head to toe, throughout the entire duration of it. When using for medical reasons, I’ve found that it works as well as most strains for relieving nausea, slightly better than most for sleep and pain relief, and significantly better than most for relieving gastrointestinal issues. Very hard to go wrong with Chemdog OG no matter what your intended use is.
Overall, an all-timer that deserves all of the recognition and hype that it receives, Chemdog OG is as good of a widely-available hybrid as any other. Being available to just about everyone in a legal market AND doing just about everything you could ever need it to, there’s little reason to doubt this absolute gem of a strain. Thanks for reading!
Much more potent than I had anticipated! I’m a pretty heavy user and .5g had me feeling gooood. If I stay moving I feel energized, but the second I sit down I’m couch-locked. Didn’t give me the munchies which is a nice change.
One of my favorite day time stains. Phat Panda herb is long lasting with the Pax Plus (efficiency mode) and the flavor is mild. Notes of lemon sublime into the subtle hints of lightly charred pine that keep you taste buds occupied yet makes you come back for more.
After a while, OG Chem tingles the mind as much as it tingles tongue as the aroma dried citrus and hints of almond emerge. As the back drop fades and the light dims, and your focus feels refreshed, you’ll notice more creativity as well with this strain.
A strain that truely lives up to its name. At higher temps notes of lemon, and notes from its ancestor, OG, sublimates into creamy and savory exhales. The soapy // perfume-ey smell - one of the defining characteristics of OG are highlighted at the latter half of the session.
What started off as an initially boggy day was made bright with fresh with this strain with every puff! This really helps with anxiety and depression. Try this stuff the next time you get the chance and - like all strains that you’re excited to try - you will not regret it!
I picked this up on advice of a bud tender who could see how heartbroken my hubby was when he learned they had just sold their last bit of Jack Herer. Ms bud tender recommended OG Chem as a replacement for Jack Herer, but (even with my limited experience) I don't see how one could be swapped for another. Hubby is a lucky lightweight: it doesn't take much for him to get knocked on his ass. He likes the happy uplifted high that Jack Herer gives him. I smoked a bit of OG Chem (over another strain), and I could tell it would be instant lights out for hubs. So either Ms bud tender is trying to move some OG Chem or she just doesn't know her stuff.
I haven't yet smoked OG by itself, so when I do, I'll revise this review. I smoked OG Chem on New Year's Day to tamp down the intense eagle-like focus that Strawberry Ice left me with.
After smoking 2 bowls of Strawberry Ice, I realized that I had just spent 10 minutes alphabetizing and organizing my spice cabinet into neat little Nazi rows. I like getting organized for the new year, but this was not the high I was looking for. I smoked a bowl of OG Chem to tamp down the intense focus of Strawberry Ice, and it worked like a charm. I was still focused and smart, but the OG Chem relaxed my brain and body and I got a little slurry. Smart and slurry is pretty much my hubs favorite me, so he liked the mix of OG Chem and Strawberry Ice.
one of my top strains and I usually hate sativa. won't touch them but this!!! wooo.
I smoked a joint to myself and I’m pretty stoned. I’m ab to go to bed I’m really relaxed and content. This is perfect for an after work kinda strain to feel calmed down after the day. It has a really piney sweet smell and same kind of taste. I really like this. Glad I just came across some I was so excited and impressed by it I downloaded this app ( after not having it for a while) and searched it and wanted to write this haha. Smoke this shit!!
Totally relaxed and focused. The entire bowl tasted fabulous and it burned down to a very clean ash. I have been able to really focus and slay my work all day. Chemdog can make me a bit nervy (re: anxious) but Chem OG makes me feel like a confident boss bitch!
This strain gives you confidence. Idk how else to explain it. This is my favorite daytime strain— period. And I’ve tried hundreds of new types of strains over the years in the State of Washington.
It gives you motivation without anxiety, confidence that overcomes any social anxiety (Hell— you could make a speech high on this strain and probably get a crowd-standing ovation), and while yes, it’s an immediate head high and cerebral, you’re not cracked out. You’re functional, sociable, easygoing, not couch-locked, and the flower is so fine when you use a grinder it creates the perfect bowl for smoking all your weed. I smoked out of a bong and bought my OG Chem ounce from Phat Panda. My two other strain recommendations that I smoke everyday are both by Lifted Luxury: Boysenberry Crème Brûlée & Alcoholic Alligator (both hybrids, very tasty and with a very similar profile that really can be smoked anywhere and impress your friends if you’re nice enough to let them try) — all worth the price, and OG Chem is $90 for an ounce at Zips Cannabis
