Glaucoma OG
Glaucoma OG is a modern hybrid-sativa strain derived from the genetics of Cataract 2.0. The cultivar is suitable for cultivation in both indoor and outdoor environments, offering growers a high yield after a moderate sixty-day flowering period. Due to its specific growth requirements, the strain is categorized as having a moderate difficulty level for cultivators.
The chemical profile of Glaucoma OG is defined by a complex arrangement of terpenes, led by caryophyllene and complemented by myrcene, limonene, humulene, and linalool. Deeper nuances are provided by bisabolol, nerolidol, beta-pinene, pinene, geraniol, borneol, camphene, terpinolene, and caryophyllene-oxide. This specific distribution of terpenes establishes a distinct sensory profile for the THC-dominant variety.
The effects of Glaucoma OG are characterized by a sense of euphoria and an uplifted mental state that promotes enhanced creativity. It is frequently employed for social settings, creative endeavors, and tasks requiring sustained focus. This genetic lineage has proven significant in the breeding community, serving as the parent for documented offspring including Bocelli, Gas Can, Ted OG, and 12lb Hammer.

●●○○
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: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
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.
