Dominant Cannabinoids in OG Kush:

Cannabinoids play an important role in OG Kush seeds and are generally a huge part of most cannabis strains. That euphoric, happy and relaxed feeling you get when enjoying the OG Kush strain is due to its dominant cannabinoids. Each cannabinoid does something different to the user.

• THC: The Main Character – THC is the most dominant cannabinoid on the molecular level of this strain. The crystalline compound tetrahydrocannabinol is the main ingredient of cannabis. Topping out at 23%, the THC in the slightly Sativa-dominant strain is responsible for the relaxed and happy feeling you get when using OG Kush.
• CBD: Very Minimal Amounts – While the CBD levels in OG Kush are higher than normal, the cannabinoid is present and the effects are noticeable in this strain. CBD plays a smaller role in what the strain does to the user. CBD is non-psychoactive and can produce effects that help with anxiety, sleep, pain and even stress. The CBD in the OG Kush strain, even in its lower amounts definitely has a positive effect on the user.
