Merlot OG

Born and bred in sunny Southern California, Merlot OG is a strain that’s in a class of her own. Ocean Grown Seeds decided to take on quite the endeavor by crossing four different strains to create this indica-dominant bud. Merlot OG credits her family lineage to Larry OG, Grape Ape, Blackberry Rhino, and SFV OG and brings a wealth of flavor that’s true to her name.

Most users should enjoy all that Merlot OG has to offer as she averages at the 15% THC mark. Each nug is dense and features tones of green and purple beneath a furry coating of pistils and trichomes. Her scents and flavors take an interesting turn as you’ll initially enjoy a musky blend of berries and spice yet finish your smoking experience with a more sour and woody note.

Some have described this strain as just about perfect because even though she is nearly evenly balanced on paper, her effects tend to be more relaxing in nature. Most claim that Merlot OG will begin with a euphoric burst that leads individuals to a place of pure bliss, making this an ideal time to socialize with friends. You probably won’t experience much in the way of extra energy, however, as this strain typically turns sedative before you know it. Both physical and mental relaxation tend to be the name of the game, allowing Merlot OG to put you at ease.

Given her penchant for slowing things down, many find that this strain is ideal for treating medical ailments. It’s been reported that this gal is great when it comes to depression and anxiety, as she’ll possibly bring you so much joy that a troubled thought can’t even form in your mind. Physical pain including migraines, muscle spasms, joint issues, and more may also be soothed by a few tokes. If you’re a total lightweight or you decide to really go to town with this gal, Merlot OG could also help with insomnia.

Experienced cultivators often report that these plants stay rather compact even when fully mature, making Merlot OG a prime choice for those with limited space. While she can thrive both inside and outdoors, it’s recommended that anyone living in a harsh climate opt for an indoor growing setup. Sea of Green methods will encourage optimal plant growth although other options are suitable as well. After roughly 8 to 10 weeks, Merlot OG should be ready for harvest and will likely produce a sizeable yield.

Merlot OG was born in 2006 so there’s a pretty good chance you’ve already tried her before, but if you haven’t, make sure to put her on your shopping list. Smokers who are looking for a rich blend of flavors coupled with soothing effects will no doubt find this strain to be one of their new favorites. Whether you’re a seasoned cannabis lover or you’re just starting to dabble, consider adding Merlot OG to your rotation.
