Exactly as advertised - calm and relaxed, but somehow uplifted un the same time

Strong high with a hybrid feeling, balanced between brain and body. I didn't like the taste, too citric and herbal for me, with a slightly better earthy flavour at the end. Pretty consistent effect for the first 2 hours and slowly decreasing for the next 3.

I have a hard time finding the right strain for all my ailments, and I feel the best always after smoking some OG Kush, which in turn, helps me sleep more soundly!

Honestly I’m on another level this is an amazing strain for pain.

Been vaping this for a few days and it’s fire. Really nice body high. Pretty strong shit

of course gots have da OG STANK DANK ER BODY LOVE IT

This shit was amazing. I was able to save 2 g for a while week. Pungent, but easy to conceal. Burns slowly and leaves you with an an out of this world high

<p>OG Kush was first cultivated in Florida, in the early &lsquo;90s when a strain from Northern California was crossed with a <a href="/strains/hindu-kush">Hindu Kush</a> plant from Amsterdam. The result was a hybrid with a unique terpene profile that boasts a complex aroma with notes of fuel, skunk,&nbsp;and spice.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The genetic backbone of West Coast cannabis varieties, OG Kush arrived in Los Angeles in 1996 when Matt &ldquo;Bubba&rdquo; Berger brought it (along with &ldquo;The Bubba,&rdquo; which was later used to create the famed <a href="/strains/bubba-kush">Bubba Kush</a>) from Florida to legendary cultivator Josh D. Since then, OG Kush has become a worldwide staple used to create numerous famous strains like <a href="/strains/gsc">GSC</a> and <a href="/strains/headband">Headband</a>.

</div><div class='leafly-legacy-article'></p>
<p>Long and dense verdant buds sprinkled with shimmering white crystals and scorching burgundy strands. Hard like concrete, yet fragile as sand and sticky-sweet to the touch. A pleasantly earthy aroma of pepper and pine.</p>
<p>This particular strain brings versatile effects. Cerebral invigoration. Creative energy. A grumbling stomach. Peace of mind. A relaxed body. Contentment with all.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Folks, meet <a href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/flowerbomb-kush">Flowerbomb Kush</a>.</p>
<p>Second place winner of the 2013 <a href="http://www.cannabiscup.com/amsterdam">Amsterdam Cannabis Cup</a>&nbsp;and first place winner in 2012, this <a href="http://greenhouseseeds.nl/">Green House Seed Company</a> creation is a strain everyone should know about.&nbsp;</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md">A Cannabis Cup Prodigy&nbsp;</h2>
<p>Green House, which runs four eponymous coffeeshops (yes, in&nbsp;<em>Nederland</em>, &ldquo;coffeeshop&rdquo; is one word) as well as their own seed company, offers this hybrid of <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/sativa/green-crack">Green Crack</a>, an electrifyingly potent sativa, and <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/og-kush">OG Kush</a>, a popularly relaxing indica. Flowerbomb&rsquo;s uniqueness lies in its duality: it stimulates and sedates the mind at the same time. That seamless blend of differing sensations is rarely accomplished as well&nbsp;Green House has achieved in Flowerbomb Kush.</p>
<p>Relaxed laws in the U.S. have allowed smaller, regional Cannabis Cups to spring up throughout the country; the upcoming <a class="underline" href="http://www.cannabiscup.com/los-angeles">Los Angeles Cannabis Cup</a>&nbsp;is one example. But, no Cup can quite compare to the Amsterdam original. The Amsterdam&nbsp;Cup began as a way for talented growers and seed companies to showcase their hard work, and it also&nbsp;created&nbsp;a safe space for counterculture to get together to celebrate their accomplishments.&nbsp;The <em>High Times </em>Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam is internationally renowned for promoting the best and newest strains of marijuana from coffeeshops around the city.</p>
<p>Cannabis connoisseurs will find no better place in the world for premium herb than this landmark event that wrapped up its 26th consecutive year in 2013. Flowerbomb sits comfortably at the top of the list of the best competitors, but there were no weak strains in sight. Every coffeeshop performed at the top of their game.</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md">Good Strains Come From Good Homes&nbsp;</h2>
<p>The quality of the cannabis is the most crucial aspect of the smoking or vaporizing experience, but the environment in which it is consumed also plays an important role. The coffeeshop culture is unique to the Netherlands, so it&rsquo;s a new, often fascinating experience for any non-Dutch visitor. The locus of the marijuana industry in the U.S. revolves around medical cannabis.&nbsp;This is not the case in Amsterdam, where recreational cannabis takes center stage in Dutch cannabusiness.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Green House atmosphere certainly did not hurt Flowerbomb Kush&rsquo;s chances, or those of Lemon Crystal, the coffee shop&rsquo;s first place winning Neder Hash. Much like bars and quirky caf&eacute;s in the U.S., not all coffeeshops are created equally. The Green House near Dam Square serves as a typical example of a coffeeshop with an inviting, comfortable vibe.&nbsp;</p>
<p>After you make your selection at the counter, choosing from a menu of indicas, sativas, hashes, edibles, and more, you find an open booth in the lounge, order a soda or sandwich, lean back, and enjoy. Especially in Amsterdam, coffeeshops big and small tend to be as tightly packed as the bowls their customers consume, but most people don&rsquo;t mind sparking conversation with new friends if they end up sharing a table with strangers.</p>
<p>Each coffeeshop falls along a spectrum of atmospheres, ranging from the laid-back <a class="underline" href="http://www.amsterdam.info/coffeeshops/mellow_yellow/">Mellow Yellow</a> to the turned-up <a class="underline" href="http://www.thebulldog.com/">Bulldog</a>. Prices remain consistently between seven and fifteen Euros (about nine to twenty US dollars) per gram, depending on the quality. Choosing a coffeeshop to patron&nbsp;is no different from choosing a restaurant, a movie, or anything else. You may have to test out a few different shops, but you&rsquo;re sure to find one that&rsquo;s exactly what you&rsquo;ve been looking for.&nbsp;</p>

</div><div class='leafly-legacy-article'><p>Leafly&#8217;s strain reviews are user-generated, meaning anyone who tries a strain can pull it up in our <a href="https://www.leafly.com/explore">database</a> and leave a review, rating the selection from one to five stars and offering up a little blurb about its effects, flavors, and any ailments or diseases it helped manage. They&#8217;re informative, appreciated, and, well, often hilarious (the reviewers are often stoned, after all). But lately we noticed a recurring theme with some reviewers who are looking for a clever way to express how high they are and coming up about 12 feet short.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m talking, of course, about giraffe genitalia. Peruse this sampling of strain reviews and you&#8217;ll understand what I mean:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>&#8220;it&#8217;s some fire. had me higher than giraffe nuts.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>&#8220;Smoked one bowl on the way to Oxford. High as giraffe nuts!! By far my favorite strain!!!&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>&#8220;Goddamn. This strain is some old school shit, but goddamn. I&#8217;m high as giraffe pussy right now.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>You get the idea. Clever, right?</p>
<p>No. It isn&#8217;t. Because, as this handy chart illustrates, giraffe genitals aren&#8217;t actually that high:</p>
<div style="max-width: 310px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://www.big-animals.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/we-get-it-these-strains-make-you-higher-than-a-giraffes-genitals/iZ8ErCeLTnCU7qbigNDA_giraffe-vs-human.png" alt="A human compared to a giraffe (size comparison), via Big-Animals.com" width="300" height="454" /></a></p>
<p class="wp-caption-text font-bold text-green text-xs mb-md">A human compared to a giraffe (diagram courtesy of Big-Animals.com)</p>
</div>
<p>A male giraffe can grow <a href="http://www.howtallisagiraffe.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">up to 18 feet tall</a>, and its legs are about six feet long. Logically, a giraffe&#8217;s genitals are located near the top of its legs, making its intimate bits also about 5 1/2 &#8211; 6 ft off the ground (give or take the &#8220;hang time&#8221; of the organ in question). Thus, going back to the above chart, if you&#8217;re &#8220;as high&#8221; or &#8220;higher than&#8221; a &#8220;giraffe&#8217;s nuts,&#8221; you&#8217;re about as high as you are tall (within about a foot, depending on your height). That&#8217;s not very high. Not very high at all. Essentially, when you exclaim that &#8220;This strain made me higher than a giraffe&#8217;s balls!&#8221;, what you&#8217;re expressing is that a) you&#8217;re actually quite functional, and b) you apparently think a giraffe is 150 feet tall.</p>
<p>Stoners, we can do better than this. Pick up a <a href="https://www.leafly.com/explore/tags-creative">creative strain</a> to get the juices flowing and come up with a better height analogy than a giraffe&#8217;s giblets. Some suggestions:</p>
<ul class="list-disc mb-lg ml-xl ">
<li>&#8220;This strain got me higher than the Burj Khalifa, which, at 2,722 feet, is the tallest building in the world!&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;I got so blazed, I&#8217;m as high as a redwood tree, which can grow up to 360 feet tall!&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;I&#8217;m higher than the glorious Angel Falls in Venezuela, the highest waterfall in the world at over 3,200 feet!&#8221;</li>
<li>Or, if you insist on sticking with the giraffe comparison, &#8220;I&#8217;m higher than a giraffe&#8217;s ossicones, the horn-like protuberances on a giraffe&#8217;s head!&#8221;</li>
</ul>
<p>Now that you&#8217;re armed with the newfound knowledge of things that are actually high up, pick up one of these strains that inspired a reviewer to think of a giraffe&#8217;s babymaker (or receiver):</p>

We Get It, These Strains Make You Higher Than a Giraffe’s Genitals

These nugs were dark and massive, fairly dense with a piney chocolate smell and covered in orange hairs and crystals. Overall it looked like the definition of DANK, very difficult to bust up too. But the high was something else, very uplifting and social buzz kicks in within a few minutes followed by euphoria and body buzz, powerful and very talkative high. A MUST TRY!! dont pass it up, its a beautiful strain!

I was diagnosed with ADD last year at the age of 19 and my life completely changed; unfortunately that included my ability to sleep. I've tried a number of pharmaceuticals to combat the late night effects of vyvanse (xanax and ambien to name a few), but they all just seemed to mess me up and still not do anything. I've been smoking for about 5 years but I never considered it as a sleep aid until about a month ago. After trying green crack, jack herer, bubba kush, cherry kush, and cheese (yes, I did figure out the difference between an indica and a sativa), I am completely settled on og kush. It's fast, hits hard, and leaves a unique numbness for hours. Absolutely perfect as a sleep aid. However, I would definitely recommed some sort of smell killer if you live with parents or un-apperciating peers. It can be quite...skunky.

For me and my girlfriend, smoking is a bonding experience. After each hit, I love talking with her, Whether it be about our day, us and our future, or life experiences or little things. This weed is GREAT for that, take your time with it, take a hit from the bong and let it take its course and fully hit you before taking another. Experience each kind of high. Each hit you take is a different high, so love it, stay in it, then tell it goodbye. This weed makes you very talkative and euphoric, just always make sure you smoke not upset. This weed is great to be open and intimate with. The only downfall is that it makes you so sleepy. Even after wake n bake, I want to go back to bed afterwards, and my body goes into hibernation mode. Save this for late at night, when the moon is in the sky just right, and you are ready to snuggle with the love, or the cats.

This review is an update of a previous review I made a few months ago about our famous OG Kush that many consider as the god of cannabis, especially here on the West Coast. I first rated this strain as a 4 because the reality is, because of it's fame, a lot of growers planted this seed but after that only cared about money and the name so they ended up on the shelves with a somewhat average to no good product. Since then I tried a lot of good quality products in this range of strains so I have to give it back it's 5 (4,8 to be exact). This is a great herb that gives you both a powerful body and head buzz. Had a very fun and creative trip most of the times I was on this one. In term of taste it's a kush taste so Earth, Sweet, Pine,  Wood blended so it' become a Hashish mashup with citrus and herbal notes. It's great for party, socials, artistic creativity and hiking. Kills pain instantly. It can go either for anxiety (get rid of social anxiety in my case). Just be cautious if you're a new cannabis user because too much can make you really anxious and paranoid (happened to a friend and myself I was a little anxious on this one once). Just control yourself and the flaws I mentioned won't happen or will be easy to control. Not for beginners. Simply some of the best weed you can get if you're grower really care about his or her trade!

I've been trying to find a strain that helps with my back pain and my insomnia. This killed two birds with one stone! I have a tic disorder, and this strain also has helped calm my nerves. It doesn't make me paranoid either. Great strain. 

I don't know what it is about OG Kush and its ability to fight my pain. I have noticed that despite verying THC content in various bags over the past few years, it always calms my nerves and brings my pain to a level thats manageable. It has its own distinct terpene popping smell of pine and citrus that I believe play a huge role in its overall medicinal benefits.

Best euphoria when it's grown optimally ! Great for pain relief ,  starts strong in the head but not racey and mellows into a heavy body buzz.  Oddly , I have had versions which tended to be more sativa but these were clearance deals .
