Strain of the Week: Legend OG

[dropcap class=”kp-dropcap”]T[/dropcap]he word “legend” is something CULTURE uses frequently to describe the cannabis industry, but to us, using it doesn’t lessen its worth as a description. In our eyes, the advocates who have fought for months, years and decades to have medical and/or recreational cannabis legalized are legendary contributors. There are some individuals such as Jack Herer, Bob Marley, Dennis Peron who will also maintain legendary status thanks to how they changed the world. Every day cultivators in this industry spend hours and days of their life creating unique bud varieties for us to consume, and it’s high time we honor them too. This week we’re looking at Legend OG—an extraordinary strain.

The “OG” portion of Legend’s name is likely a tie to the OG Kush family of strains (of which many of our favorite strains come from). Its actual parents were unknown to reviewers, but it’s not hard to determine some of this strain’s abilities.

The qualities that define a legend are boundless, though a common ground stands, legends are extraordinary. We call them as we see them around here, and this one’s namesake is right on the money. Legend OG carries potent scent of tartness and springtime flowers, making it perfect for a weekend afternoon smoke sesh (as an indica, it is likely to set you down in the place that you’ll hang out in for a while).

The full-body effect in this strain is apparent within a few puffs. At 24.7 percent THC, patients who are looking for relief from a variety of chronic pains, insomnia, migraines, muscle spasms and nausea, find sincere, lasting relief from Legend OG. Reviewers noted that this “clone only” phenotype is truly magnificent, even as a visual specimen. The knobby calyxes heavily dusted in trichomes are quite a sight. You’re sure to be talking about this strain long after it’s gone.
