Batman OG
Batman OG
Also known as: Batman Kush, The Dark Knight
Overview
Batman OG, or "Batman Kush," is an indica dominant hybrid of unknown parentage due to a pretty high level of breeder secrecy about its heritage. While the exact origins of Batman OG are shrouded in mystery, it is believed to have been created in California, where it quickly gained popularity among cannabis enthusiasts. The genetic lineage of Batman OG can be traced back to two powerhouse strains: OG Kush and a proprietary hybrid strain. The Batman moniker likely nods to the darker, brooding color of the foliage and the strain's night-shift reputation among medical users. Batman OG buds have dense spade-shaped dark olive green nugs with rich purple undertones, bright orange hairs, and super chunky amber crystal trichomes. Batman OG typically retains the dense, greasy trichome coverage and fuel-forward nose that defined the original coastal OG cuts. This strain has built a reputation as a potent nighttime variety favored by both recreational and medical users seeking deep relaxation and pain relief.

Growing Information
Flowering time for the Batman OG is around eight to 10 weeks. Growers should plan for 8 to 9 weeks of bloom, medium stretch, and strong defoliation and airflow to manage density and mold risk. Growing Batman OG plants can be completed by novice cannabis cultivators with limited experience in growing their own marijuana. The process is fairly simple, and a Mediterranean climate is preferred as it offers ample sunshine, warmth, and the right amount of humidity. If you've never grown cannabis before, your best bet at getting this strain to harvest is to grow it either indoors or outdoors in a greenhouse where you can dial in the conditions to replicate its natural growing environment. Growing indoors, you can expect the Batman OG strain to harvest after a flowering period of 55-65 days. While Indoor yields are around 450 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 450 grams per plant. This strain is considered moderate difficulty for cultivation and responds well to training techniques.
