Phantom OG is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar derived from OG Kush genetics. Developed as a high-performing option for contemporary cultivators, this strain is well-suited for both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a moderate difficulty level throughout the growth cycle, which culminates in a 60-day flowering period and consistently high yields.
The aromatic and flavor profile of Phantom OG is defined by its dominance of terpinolene, which provides a distinct sharpness, followed by the grounded herbal notes of myrcene and the spicy warmth of caryophyllene. This specific terpene hierarchy informs a sensory experience that balances botanical intensity with a structured, multifaceted essence. The resulting blend is subtle yet present, reflecting the primary influence of the strain's chemical composition.
With a THC-dominant profile testing at approximately 22% and virtually no CBD content, Phantom OG is engineered to produce creative, uplifted, and happy effects. These qualities make the strain particularly effective for users seeking to enhance focus or engage in social settings that require a clear yet motivated mental state. While the plant maintains a reputation for its reliable growth habits, there are currently no recorded offspring in its genetic lineage.

Research notes below describe isolated terpene mechanisms and early findings. They do not guarantee effects from this strain and are not medical advice.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.

●●○○
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: local anesthetic equal to procaine; anticonvulsant via glutamate/GABA modulation; reduces morphine tolerance via multisite opioid/GABAergic/cannabinoid action.
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.
