Casper OG is a phenomenal end product of two extraordinary strains. It is one of those cannabis plants with a traceable and well-documented history. ThaDocta met with ORGNKID a few times and gave some of his clones, one of which is the popular Face Off OG. The latter then crossbred it with one of his own Ghost OG which has a potent high.

Its offspring is a 70/30 Indica-dominant strain that delivers exquisite Indica effects. It is a friendly strain, alluding to its cartoon namesake, with a pleasant head-to-toe high. The most notable, however, is its gradual sedating powers that come with continuous consumption of the bud.

Effects

Growing Casper OG

Casper OG is ideal as an indoor grow. However, through pheno-hunting, it eventually adapted to outdoor growing. It developed resilience against various conditions such as cooler temperatures over time. Because of this, it flowers well in the northern hemisphere.

This is not to say that growers can leave it alone throughout the whole growing process. It still requires protection against harsh weather such as snow which can kill it overnight or heavy rains that break its branches. A temporary enclosing will usually keep the plant safe. Harvest is usually around the middle of October to the early days of November. The high-yielding strain produces at least 400 grams of heavy buds per plant at full maturity.

In spite of its Indica-leaning genes, Casper OG grows relatively tall but also very bushy. Topping the plant early till keep it short while pruning it often improves light and air circulation in the lower nodes.
