Earth OG
Earth OG is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar derived from Ghost OG. As a selection shaped by contemporary breeding practices, it requires a moderate level of grower expertise, thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments. Cultivators can expect a high yield from this strain, which reaches maturity after a 66-day flowering period.
The chemical profile of Earth OG is defined by a complex array of terpenes, led by myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene. This dominance is supported by humulene, beta-pinene, bisabolol, linalool, pinene, caryophyllene-oxide, terpinolene, ocimene, borneol, camphene, and geraniol. This diverse composition results in a multifaceted aromatic and flavor experience that reflects the structural hierarchy of its cannabinoid-rich resin.
As a THC-dominant variety, Earth OG is recognized for its ability to foster creative and euphoric states while maintaining an uplifted mood. Its effects align with therapeutic or functional use cases centered on artistic creativity, social engagement, and mental focus. The genetic influence of the strain continues through its notable offspring, which include Holy Roller OG, Jazz Snaps, and Lemon Groove.

●●○○
Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
creative
morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
happy
anytimeGenetic Profile
Sativa-dominant
Primarily sativa with indica grounding. Uplifting with body relaxation.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
