501st OG: Multi-Coloured Buds

501st OG seeds grow into short and compact plants that are easy to manage and require less effort to maintain. The leaves of this strain are long and wide and attract sunlight, which helps this plant grow. The buds are multi-coloured and feature hues of red, purple, orange, green, and even lavender. The top buds are coated with thick layers of dusty resin trichomes. It looks like these buds were dipped in sugar as they glisten in the light. The harvested nuggets are huge and dank, dense and aren't easy to break up with your fingers, so you may want to have your grinders readily available. The nuggets are green and gold because of the amber pistils that transform when clipped and dried. 501st OG won first place at the 2019 Highlife Cup in the Kush Strains category. This is a massive victory for the fairly young strain. Adding this win to its résumé only boosts its popularity in the cannabis community and shines a light on what growers would consider an easy grow. 501st OG's parent strains are no strangers to the limelight, as they have also won their fair share of awards. With a legacy like this, it is no wonder why more and more growers are adding this strain to their grow setups.

Growing Tips for Our Seeds

501st OG is one of the easier strains to grow, making it perfect for first-time growers looking to cut their teeth on. A rewarding strain to grow because of its beautiful appearance and flavour profiles, 501st OG performs well both indoors and outdoors. Because of its smaller stature, you can grow this strain in several locations, including closets, balconies, and even greenhouses. The strain loves sunlight and fresh air. It thrives in Mediterranean-style climates where temperature and humidity are consistent. Indoor grows are a bit easier to control as far as temperature and climate are concerned, but outdoor grows allow this strain to grow larger, ultimately resulting in bigger yields. Canadian households may grow up to four plants per household for personal use, subject to provincial regulations.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions

• Indoor or Outdoor: 501st OG cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by novice growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is between 20–25°C. During the vegetative stage, utilise an 18- to 20-hour light schedule. Changing to a 12/12 light schedule will induce the flowering stage of growth and get you all the way to harvest.
• Moisture Control: Humidity levels of approximately 65% during the vegetative phase, gradually decreasing to 55% or lower during the flowering stage. This change in humidity will help keep mould off of your plants.
• Training Techniques: Low-stress training or LST, Sea of Green, and topping are the best methods for this strain. These methods help adjust the plant's leaves so that ample light and air can reach the bottom of the plant. They also help increase yield numbers to reach their full potential.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the 501st OG strain to reach harvest after a flowering period of 55–65 days. Outdoor growers should be ready for harvest sometime near the middle of October, depending on when you planted your seeds.
• Yields: Indoor yields are around 350 grams per square metre, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 400 grams per plant. Considering how compact these plants tend to grow, you could reasonably cultivate more than one plant and multiply your yields accordingly. Growing your plants outdoors will lead to bigger yields, though not by a significant margin.

Dominant Terpenes in 501st OG: Small and Mighty

The 501st OG terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while limonene and myrcene are secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – Peppery and spicy in flavour and aroma.

• Limonene: Secondary Terpene – Found in the rinds of citrus fruits, this terpene can improve lung function when found in cannabis.

• Myrcene: Earthy Flavour – The "Mother of all Terpenes", myrcene has an earthy and woodsy aroma and flavour to it.

Dominant Cannabinoids in 501st OG:

Cannabinoids play an important role in 501st OG seeds and are generally a huge part of most strains of cannabis. That happy, relaxed, and euphoric feeling you get when enjoying the 501st OG strain is due to its dominant cannabinoids. Each cannabinoid does something different to the user.

• THC: The Main Character - THC is the most dominant cannabinoid on the molecular level of this strain. The crystalline compound tetrahydrocannabinol is the main ingredient of cannabis. Topping out at 18%, the THC in this Indica-dominant strain is responsible for the happy and euphoric feeling you get when enjoying 501st OG cannabis.
• CBD: Very Minimal Amounts - While the CBD levels in 501st OG are around 1%, the cannabinoid is still present and the effects are noticeable in this strain. CBD plays a smaller role in what the strain does to the user. CBD is non-psychoactive and can produce effects that help with anxiety, sleep, pain, and even stress. The CBD in the 501st OG strain, even in its lower amounts, definitely has a positive effect on the user.
