SFV OG

Overview

SFV OG is a sativa dominant hybrid strain created by the Cali Connection. It has modest levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (17%-22%) giving it a strong cerebral buzz. With such levels of THC, this strain is a potent pain reliever. As the name suggest, it traces its origins to the famous OG Kush strain. SFV stands for San Fernando Valley. A different strain by the name of SFV OG Kush is normally mistaken for SFV OG, this should not be the case. SFV OG Kush is a cross between a landrace Afghani and SFV OG.

SFV OG grows to a height of 40 to 80 inches. It has unremarkable small flowers that curl up, the small dense buds are solid green and are decorated with orange colored pistils. This is a resinous strain with sticky trichome layers which produce THC and other cannabinoids. The scent is predominantly piney with a lemon punch. The smoke can be a bit overpowering but it will soon clear out as the euphoria kicks in.

Terpene Profile

Terpenes are compounds found in plants such as cannabis and they have shown great therapeutic potential. Terpenes work in synergy with cannabinoids such as THC and CBD to potentiate the medical benefits of cannabis strains. SFV OG has the following terpenes: beta caryophyllene, humulene, limonene, linalool, myrcene and terpinolene.

Caryophyllene

This terpene has a spicy aroma, close to that of black pepper. It is the only terpene that is able to bind to cannabinoid receptors. It has great pain relieving properties. Some recent research has also shown that this terp may be useful in the treatment of alcohol addiction.

Humulene

Humulene is abundant in hops, an ingredient use in beer making. It gives off a distinctive woody aroma. It has appetite suppressant effects making it useful as a weight loss agent. Some studies have showed that cannabis consumers have a lower body mass index and a lower chance of developing diabetes.
