Description
The OG KUSH Strain is a staff favorite with our Green Flower Creative Team. We have an amazing group of creative people working here at GFB. Interestingly enough, wherever you find lots of creativity, you invariably find lots of wonderfully wired ADD types. Creativity and attention deficit just seem to go hand in hand. Whereas Granddaddy Purple is known for it’s anxiolytic and sedative effects, OG Kush brings the anxiolytic effect but with an added focused energy quality.
It would be unfair to limit this strain just to its anxiolytic and focus properties. The synergistic effects of this terpene profile in combination with whole-plant CBD are numerous. To learn more about this special strain take some time and examine the terpenes below. Keep in mind that even though it’s the CBD doing the heavy lifting, the terpenes assist the CBD synergistically to bend the effects in a particular direction.
This particular profile has been researched for its anxiolytic and anti-depressant properties, anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, anti-cancer, antioxidant, gastric protective properties and more….
Terpene Content: Limonene, Myrcene, Beta Caryophyllene, Linalool, Beta Pinene, Humulene, Fenchol, Alpha Pinene, Terpineol, Phytol, Alpha Bisabolol, Camphene, Borneol, Pulegone
IMPORTANT PLEASE READ:
–> Your cartridge will have a small air space at the top and may not appear to be full. This is normal due to the oil being pulled into the wick after filling. We ensure each cartridge is filled to its capacity during manufacturing, and you are getting the full amount advertised.
–> These cartridges are not refillable and should be discarded after they are empty for optimal safety and performance.
–> This cartridge is compatible with our battery kit. It should also work with any 510 style battery that provides AT LEAST 380mAh, and 3-4 watts (9 watt max). We are NOT responsible if you connect with an incompatible battery, so do so at your own risk. To ensure proper operation, please consider adding one of our battery kits to your order.
Crystallization Issue:
Pure CBD crystallizes at cold temperatures. Our vapes should not crystallize at normal room temperatures. However, if they get cold, crystallization may occur. In colder climates, it’s possible for your cartridge to arrive with some crystallization evident. If your vape oil looks “frosty”, the solution is easy. Gently warm the cartridge with a hair dryer for a minute or two until the crystallization disappears. Be careful not to overheat the cartridge and don’t burn your fingers on the hot glass!

Terpenes and Effects
OG KUSH Strain Terpenes & Effects
All plant life have terpenes. Terpenes are the compounds responsible for the unique aroma and flavors of any given plant. Terpenes also have an abundance of beneficial medicinal qualities. You may have heard of these terpenes by another name – essential oils.
Each terpene has its own distinct taste, smell and medicinal benefits. Beyond their individual qualities, terpenes bind together in concert with other terpenes, cannabinoids and fatty acids to create a synergistic effect – the sum being greater than the total of its parts. This is often referred to as the entourage effect and is the cornerstone of what we call full-spectrum hemp therapeutics.
The specific terpene profile works synergistically with CBD (cannabidiol) to – bend the effect – of these cannabinoids in a particular direction. Every strain contains CBD but the medicinal benefits of each strain will vary based on its unique combination of terpenes and cannabinoids.

Dosage Instructions
How To Measure Dosage With 500mg CBD Vape Cartridges
Find Your Minimum Effective Dose
Everyone responds differently to CBD, there is no set dose for everyone or every condition. The process used to establish the minimum effective dose of CBD is very simple.
Stepwise dosing is a process by which you first establish a baseline dosage and then adjust the dosage incrementally over a set time frame until you find an effective dose. By following a stepwise dosing procedure you can find the right dosage of CBD for any condition.
Since many people report good results with CBD at low doses we suggest you establish a lower baseline dosage and slowly increase the dosage until you reach the desired result.
- Start with a small baseline dosage between 3-4mg 2X daily (6-8mg total).
- Maintain your baseline dosage for 7 days taking note of how the CBD interacts with your body.
- After the initial 7 days of your baseline dose, if you are not receiving the benefit you need, then increase the daily dosage by 1-2mg every 3 days until you find the dosage that works best for you.
- Once you have determined your minimum effective dose you may wish to decrease your dosage by one level to test and see if you can maintain the benefits at a slightly lower dosage.
Important Note: Generally, people decide to try CBD because of one particular condition they want to treat. Remember, your endocannabinoid system runs throughout the body at a sub-cellular level and is responsible for maintaining homeostasis within many of the bodies systems. CBD is a whole-body, multi-benefit compound. Do not be surprised if you find various effects from your dosage.
Establishing A Baseline Dosage Based On Weight

Side Effects
Possible Side Effects Of CBD And Drug Interaction
There are multiple studies demonstrating the effectiveness of CBD in treating various conditions. Most of these studies conclude that CBD (cannabidiol) is safe and virtually free of side effects.
A review on the Safety and side effects of cannabidiol by the NCBI, for example, suggests that controlled CBD (cannabidiol) administration is safe and non-toxic in humans and animals. It also does not induce changes in food intake; nor does it affect physiological parameters like heart rate, body temperature or blood pressure. Also, according to this review paper, “high doses up to 1,500 mg/day of CBD are reportedly well tolerated in humans.”
There are very few known side effects of CBD, these are mostly minor but you should be informed before taking CBD:
- Inhibition of hepatic drug metabolism -CBD and other plant cannabinoids can potentially interact with some pharmaceuticals by inhibiting the activity of cytochrome P450, a family of liver enzymes. This key enzyme group is responsible for metabolizing some of the drugs we consume. At sufficient dosages, CBD will temporarily deactivate cytochrome P450 enzymes, thereby altering how we metabolize certain compounds. A 2013 report on a clinical trial using GW Pharmaceutical’s Sativex, found no interactions with CYP enzymes when approximately 40mg of CBD were administered.
GRAPEFRUIT WARNING: If your medication has a grapefruit consumption warning label then you should not take CBD without first talking to your doctor or pharmacist to see if CBD will inhibit the efficacy of your medication. - Dry mouth- Some people have reported an unpleasant dry sensation in the mouth.
- Increased tremor with Parkinson’s at high CBD dosages- There are studies showing the potential of CBD to help alleviate symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. However, there have been reports of CBD increasing tremors when taken at very high dosages. Reducing intake to a smaller dosage will typically eliminate increased tremors.
- Lightheadedness- In cases where extremely high dosages of CBD are being taken some people have reported temporary lightheadedness.
- Drowsiness- Higher dosages of CBD may cause drowsiness. If you are affected this way, you should not operate machinery or drive a vehicle. Conversely, due to its bi-phasic nature, micro-doses of CBD act as a wake-inducing agent.
Special Precautions & Warnings:
Pregnancy and breastfeeding: There is not enough reliable information about the safety of taking CBD if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.
