The Hog

The Hog strain of cannabis got its start in Tennessee when an Afghan strain was crossed with Hindu Kush. The combination of these two potent and popular strains created a 100% Indica with massive THC content. While the strain was first bred in Tennessee, it didn’t start to gain worldwide attention until it reached California, one of the cannabis capitals of the world. The Hog’s aroma is famously pungent, but its flavor is surprisingly pleasant. It offers a complex blend of earthy wood, skunk, sweet spice, and pine, with floral hints. Those with sharp taste buds may also detect a peppery, loamy aftertaste, adding to the unique and enjoyable smoking experience. The Hog cannabis seeds grow pure indica plants delivering fast, deep relaxation. This heavy hitter will have you grinning and glued to the couch while snacking to rid yourself of the munchies. Perfect for unwinding at the end of a long day, and towards the end of your buzz, you’ll be walking sleepily to your bed.

The Hog: Happy Days

The Hog seeds grow into short, stocky plants that are mostly buds with long leaves that point upwards. The color scheme of this plant is green with white and purple accents. Looking closely at the buds you will see amber hairs sprouting near the crown. These pistils are bright compared to the pale green background. While the leaves are smooth, the buds look as if they were sprinkled with sweet sugar. The trichomes glisten under the light of your grow room and release a pungent aroma that is noticeable long before you see the plant. The harvested nuggets are bright green and orange and covered in resiny crystals. Since the strain’s inception over twenty years ago, it has taken home some pretty hefty awards, including a win at the 2002 High Times Cannabis Cup for Best Indica. With over a dozen smaller awards to its name, this strain is popular among growers and users. Growers love it because of its high yields and potent THC content, as well as its ease of growth.

Growing Tips for Our Seeds

The Hog is not only an effective strain, but it is a relatively easy strain for beginners to grow. The Hog cannabis grows best in controlled environments with good airflow and warm temperatures. This strain can also be grown outdoors in a Mediterranean-like climate. The Hog is quite resilient to mold and mildew, making it even more accessible to novice growers. Whether you grow indoors or outdoors, you don’t need a ton of space to grow these smaller plants. Making it doable to grow more than one at a time and really boost those yield numbers.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions

  • Indoor or Outdoor: The Hog cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by all levels of growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit. Since The Hog cannabis plants are of the feminized variety, they must be provided with 18 hours of light per day and 6 hours of darkness during their vegetation stage. You will need to change the light cycle to 12/12 to induce flowering and make it all the way to harvest.
  •  Moisture control: In terms of humidity levels, you’ll want to set it at 70% during the vegetative growth stage. To get the plants through to the flowering stage, you will need to drop the humidity to a steady 40% so that you don’t find mold or bud rot on your plants.
  • Training Techniques: The Hog benefits from topping and Low-stress training (LST) for it to grow to completion. These training techniques will help adjust the canopy so that light and air reach even the lower levels. Having light hit the buds that are closest to the soil creates an even growth and will increase yields.

The Germination Game Plan

Before you even plant your The Hog female cannabis plants, you will first need to germinate these seeds. To do so, refer to our free germination guide, knowing that they are backed by our impressive 90% germination guarantee.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

  • Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect to harvest after a flowering period of 55-65 days. If you have grown your strain outside, then you can expect a harvest in mid-October, so plan your planting schedule accordingly.
  • Yields: While Indoor yields are around 650 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 800 grams per plant. These yields are absolutely massive, considering this is one of the easier strain of cannabis to grow. If it is your first-time growing weed you are going to be super happy with these hefty yields of high quality bud.

Dominant Terpenes in The Hog: Sweet & Woody

The Hog terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is limonene, while beta-caryophyllene and myrcene are secondary terpenes.

  • Limonene: Most Dominant – Found in citrus peels and cannabis, this terpene helps with anxiety and increases lung function.
  • Beta-Caryophyllene: Secondary Terpene – Found in black pepper, cinnamon, and cloves. Gives off a spicy and peppery aroma.
  • Myrcene: Popular in Cannabis –The most abundant terpene in modern commercial cannabis, it helps with inflammation and adds to the aroma of the strain.

Dominant Cannabinoids in The Hog:

Cannabinoids play an important role in The Hog seeds and are generally a huge part of most strains of cannabis. That happy, relaxed, and sleepy feeling you get when enjoying The Hog 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 a monster 27%, the THC in this 100% Indica strain is responsible for the happy and relaxed feeling you get when enjoying The Hog cannabis.
  • CBD: Very Minimal Amounts – While the CBD levels in The Hog are less than 1%, the cannabinoid is still 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 Hog strain, even in its lower amounts, definitely has a positive effect on the user.
