Sapphire OG
Sapphire OG
Also known as: Sapphire OG Kush
Overview
Sapphire OG is a high-quality feminized cannabis strain developed by Humboldt Seed Organization that represents a refined and exclusive expression of classic OG genetics. Created from a cross between prized Florida OG cuts and an OG x Afghan hybrid, this strain embodies approximately 85% Indica and 15% Sativa genetics, resulting in a sophisticated hybrid that differs significantly from typical OG-derived varieties.
The strain stands out for its vigorous growth characteristics and distinctive appearance, featuring medium to large-sized plants with colorful, sophisticated looks that can reach 3-4 meters outdoors. Sapphire OG displays remarkable visual appeal with dense, compact buds that exhibit deep emerald to indigo hues in late flower, often developing purple and orange tones during the final flowering stages. The buds are characterized by their heavy resin production, creating a frost-bitten, glassy appearance with abundant trichomes that give the strain its gem-like quality.
The aromatic and flavor profile of Sapphire OG is complex and captivating, featuring an intricate blend of pine, oil, chocolate, citrus, and floral notes. This sophisticated terpene composition creates a harmonious bouquet that balances earthy grounding with uplifting citrusy undertones, setting it apart from traditional Kush varieties and making it particularly appealing to cannabis connoisseurs seeking a premium experience.

Growing Information
Sapphire OG is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation with moderate growing difficulty. Indoor flowering time ranges from 57-63 days (8-9 weeks), yielding 400-600 g/m² under optimal conditions. The strain requires careful monitoring indoors as it can double in size during the 12/12 light cycle and may need staking or support for its heavy, resinous buds. Outdoor cultivation produces impressive results with harvest timing in late September to early October, capable of yielding 1-4 kg per plant and reaching heights of 3-4 meters. The strain performs well in higher temperatures and responds favorably to heavy nutrients, though synthetic feeding is recommended over organic for maximum resin production and yield. Training techniques like supercropping are well-tolerated, and the plant builds many thick buds on side branches.
