Florida OG by DNA Genetics
If you want to talk about the real-deal roots of the modern Kush craze, you have to trace it all back to the swamps. Florida OG by DNA Genetics is basically a seed-form tribute to the legendary "Crippy" or "Ocean Grown" cuts that floated out of the Sunshine State back in the early '90s. Before the West Coast completely took over the OG Kush narrative, this was the foundational blueprint. DNA Genetics dropped this one in their "Grow Your Own" collection, making a notoriously guarded, clone-only legend accessible to regular heads who wanted to run it from feminized beans.
Growing this one is a bit of a trip down memory lane, and it definitely brings some of that old-school finicky behavior. You aren't going to pull commercial mega-yields off her; forum heads on Rollitup and IC Mag consistently report medium pulls at best. But you don't grow Florida OG for the weight. You run it for that absolute grease. She takes about 60 to 70 days to finish up, and during those last couple of weeks, the room just reeks of sharp citrus, burnt pine needles, and raw unleaded fuel. It's that unmistakable classic OG profile that practically burns your nostrils when you open the jar.
Over the years, this cut has really earned its stripes as a true "breeder's strain." So many guys keep a mother around just to outcross, passing on that devastating 70/30 indica-dominant stone and insane terpene expression. It's the kind of smoke that sits heavily behind the eyes after just a couple of rips. And while modern hype strains are busy tasting like dessert, popping a pack of Florida OG is like finding a time capsule buried in the backyard. It's raw, unpolished, and hits with a heavy nostalgia that you just can't fake.

Growing Florida OG: what to expect
As an indica-leaning plant, expect a modest stretch after the flip (roughly 50–100%) and dense bud structure — which makes late-flower humidity discipline the main risk: keep RH in the 40s once buds fatten to stay ahead of mold. Growers familiar with OG Kush will recognize much of its behavior. Whatever the listing says, the cut in YOUR tent is the ground truth: log feedings, readings, and photos, and let the trends — not the label — drive decisions.
