Double Barrel OG Strain

Ask any Californian what their favorite strain is and they’ll probably say, OG Kush. Of course, who does not appreciate the ocean grown, genetic backbone of the West Coast? The hybrid has a memorable psychedelic high that brings users to space before cradling them back to earth. Equally appealing is Raskal’s OG Kush, which retains much of its lineage’s trait along with its mind-blowing flavors of lemon.


Information about Double Barrel OG:


However, Dank House Seeds decided to cross Raskal’s OG Kush with another hybrid to increase its resin production. And what better choice is there than White Fire OG, a Sativa-leaning strain that look almost white against a backdrop of dark leaves? Moreover, it passes on unique, barrels-shaped buds to its offspring.

From their union, Double Barrel OG was born. An evenly split hybrid, it provides users with the ultimate mind and body experience. However, its true power lies in the powerful, rapid fire psychedelic buzz it induces similar to the original double-barreled guns of the past.

Effects

Widely regarded as a thrill seeker’s dream, Double Barrel OG is fast-acting and shoots users up to the sky almost immediately after one to two puffs with its 19% to 20% THC. In spite of its insanely potent levels of THC, beginners may still enjoy the strain with the help of a seasoned friend.

It is best to have snacks prepared ahead of time before the initial onset begins. After all, the rush of euphoria does not only boost moods. It also stimulates cerebral activity. In clearing the mind, it also encourages a heightened sense of focus that motivates users to finish tasks. By having food nearby, enthusiasts can continue the cycle of productivity.

After a few hours, the hybrid’s powerful Indica effects begin to manifest. From between the eyes, a light pressure moves down in waves. Soothing and calming, it relaxes users fully as each muscle is released from the grappling hold of tension. Eventually, many drift off to a deep, unencumbered slumber.

Fragrance

Double Barrel OG’s aroma is distinctly diesel with fragrant overtone of pine. A thorough whiff of its buds reveals its sweetness and citric undertones of lemons. Broken apart or combusted, a faint note of wet soil fills the room.

Flavors

The taste of sweet lemons greatly characterizes Double Barrel OG’s flavors. Complementing it are sour notes of diesel with undertones of pine and earth that linger even after the last puff.

Adverse Reaction

Dehydration is a common reaction to marijuana. It is usually reflected as a cottonmouth but red eyes are possible as well especially as cannabinoids begin to interfere with the production of moisture in the tear ducts. Neither are a cause for concern though since both are barely noticeable and tend to go away with time. If symptoms persist, however, users may down a few glasses of water.

Overconsuming the potent Double Barrel OG can lead to ‘greening out,’ a condition characterized by either a mild headache, dizziness, and a heightened awareness that can trigger anxiety. At times, it may even lead to a subtle feeling of paranoia. Thankfully, this is a rare occurrence and can be avoided through pacing or moderation.

Medical

Presumably, Double Barrel OG was created for recreation. Still, the strain is not without its therapeutic value. Through the combined efforts of its THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids like terpenes, it provides a reprieve against a myriad of mental and physical afflictions.

Its mood stabilizing high, for instance, allows users with depression and other mental illnesses like PTSD to manage their symptoms. Often, these include constant negativity and chronic anxiety which are also present in individuals with high levels of stress. For this reason, Double Barrel OG works as a stress reliever as well.

In high levels, THC also turns into a natural painkiller. The soothing body high appeases aches and pains beginning from the temples. As it spreads through the muscles, it undoes tightness, releases tension, and alleviates cramps.

Growing

At the moment, Double Barrel OG sees are exclusively available in regular form. Because this means at least 50% of the batch will grow to be males, growers must apply pre-germination methods like soaking to increase the chances of producing a calyx-filled plant. Meanwhile, Low-Stress Training will ensure successful females do not turn into hermaphrodites.

Sadly, Double Barrel OG inherited its parent’s sensitivity against humidity. It requires a semi-humid environment with loads of sunshine to dry any moisture left in its buds before they develop into molds. The plant is also quite lanky and easily breaks off. As a result, many prefer cultivating their batch in less volatile environments like greenhouses. In this way, the plants are kept away from critters, strong gusts of wind, and extreme weather.

As alluded to earlier, Double Barrel OG is susceptible to mold. For this reason, it is important to install proper ventilation systems that will spread air evenly indoors. Aspiring growers must also keep the area dry. Indoors, the plant’s tall structure necessitates height management techniques like early topping so it is kept short.

Flowering Time

Indoors

After a flowering period of 9 to 10 weeks, Double Barrel OG produces dense, resinous buds amounting between 12 to 14 ounces per square meter.

Outdoors

In the northern hemisphere, Double Barrel blossoms from the second to the last week of October. However, it can sometimes extend to a week and mature around early November. Regardless, the plant produces at least 14 ounces of buds per plant.
