Godfather OG

Godfather OG, also known as “Godfather,” “OG Godfather”, and “The Don of All OG’s,” is an indica-dominant hybrid that commands respect in the cannabis world. With a whopping THC content of up to 34%, it is sure to knock you off your feet and induce a state of profound relaxation, unlike anything you have experienced before. The strain’s honourable parentage included two descendants of the famed OG Kush.

Onset

As is the case with most hybrids, the sativa effects manifest themselves first. Moments after toking, you will feel a warm, enveloping sensation where you feel serene. Soon after that, a potent cerebral rush of euphoria follows. This mood enhancer induces a sense of serenity and contentment, allowing you to appreciate life’s simple pleasures.

Whilst the hybrid is only slightly indica-dominant, the indica traits quickly manifest themselves, cascading the user into a complete body relaxation. This couch lock will last for 2 hours or even longer and leave your body so relaxed that you will be unable to move. Towards the end of your trip, you will likely get very sleepy. Godfather OG can therefore promote a night of deep, restful sleep if smoked before bed.

This all may sound overwhelming for novice smokers, who should look for another bud to start their cannabis adventure with. However, medical and experienced users will love the relaxation so profound that it wipes out any pain and stress.

Uses

Recreational users love Godfather OG for its potency – which is also the exact reason why it can be so medically beneficial. The high THC content and anti-inflammatory caryophyllene can offer tremendous pain relief for chronic pain, arthritis or migraine sufferers. In addition, the uplifting and deeply relaxing effects will help manage symptoms of depression and anxiety, literally dissolving them for a while.

Due to its sedative properties, bolstered by myrcene, it can also aid insomnia.

If you appreciate this strain’s pain-killing properties, you may also want to try ACDC.

Side effects

Most side effects of The Don are mild and include dry eyes, dry mouth and mild dizziness. However, it is essential to remember that flowers with a high THC content can contribute to feelings of paranoia and anxiety, especially among sensitive users. So take it easy and start slowly with a puff of two, gradually building up your tolerance.
