Black Fire OG
Black Fire OG
Also known as: Black Fire, Blackfire
Overview
Black Fire OG is a potent indica-dominant hybrid strain created by crossing White Fire OG (WiFi) with an Afghan Kush or unknown Afghan cultivar. The strain was bred by the renowned Ethos Genetics, resulting in an indica-dominant hybrid with a 70% indica and 30% sativa genetic composition.
This cup-winning strain produces plants with large, dark, thick leaves in a classic indica structure, yielding dense flowers that provide a distinct, long-lasting indica high. Black Fire is known for delivering robust effects due to its high THC levels, which can reach up to 24%. The strain exhibits dense, frosty buds with dark green leaves that lie low and large, with hints of purple that resemble a smoldering ember, and frosty trichomes give it a sparkling appearance under light.
The strain's enticing scent profile combines sweet berry notes from its Blackberry Kush lineage with spicy undertones inherited from White Fire OG, resulting in a complex aroma that is as alluring as it is unique. The aroma of Black Fire is notably pungent in a way that cannot be ignored, with the smell filling up a room as soon as the buds are exposed.

Growing Information
Black Fire has a moderate to difficult growing difficulty level, with a flowering time of approximately 65 days (around 9 weeks). The flowering period lasts approximately eight weeks, though waiting another week could enhance THC production significantly. Expected yields are 10-15 ounces per plant outdoors (approximately 400g/plant) and 0.5-1 ounce per square foot indoors (approximately 300g/m²). These plants grow quite tall, reaching up to six feet high in many cases, so adequate vertical space is needed for indoor cultivation or consider training techniques like topping or LST (Low Stress Training). Black Fire prefers a warm climate with plenty of sunlight exposure but can tolerate cooler temperatures. For optimal growth, maintain indoor temperatures within 70-85°F during daytime, humidity levels around 40-50% during vegetative stage, reducing to 30-40% during flowering phase, and below 30% humidity in final weeks before harvest.
