History & Genetics

Fatso OG is a sweet, chunky strain whose buds live up to its name and whose flavor lives up to its reputation. This is a lazy-evening smoke, the kind of strain that can warm you up, lift you high, and weigh you down in the best way possible. Couch-locking, spicy-sweet, and euphoric, Fatso OG is potent and fun to get into. You just have to be ready for it.

Fatso OG is the child of Legends OG and Garlic Cookies, which made this strain lean pretty far towards Indica (70/30) and also synthesized its potent effects. Its flowering time and yields are average and the plant is fairly hardy, growing about as well inside and outside so long as the climate is warm. Potential breeders should keep in mind that Colorado-based breeder, Cannarado, is not forthcoming with seeds of this strain. If you want to grow it yourself, you’ll have to find clones.

Appearance, Aroma, & Flavor

If you’re lucky enough to have the bud in your hand, what are you seeing? Fatso OG’s buds are shaped like plump spades, minty green, with opaque crystals and thick orange hairs. They aren't the most attractive buds on the market, but they sure will provide you with an experience. The smell coming off the Fatso OG buds is incredible, sort of a sweet, herbal combination of fruit and coffee and earth. It’s incredibly pleasing for experienced and novice cannabis users to enjoy the Fatso OG aroma. You’ll be simmering in the scent of wood, coffee, flowers, and herbs, including just a hint of garlic flavor, from its mom.

The dominant terpenes in Fatso OG are Beta-Caryophyllene, Limonene, and Myrcene, which is why it’s fruity, skunky, earthy, and has a hint of spicy fuel on the exhale. The users that get the most from Fatso can handle the mind-altering cerebral high (in the upper 20s in terms of THC) as well as its unique cocktail of flavors.

Effects

When you begin smoking a Fatso, you’ll be uplifted with a feeling of happiness and euphoric mental energy. If you have a higher tolerance, you might be focused enough to play video games or enjoy some of your favorite tunes. This progresses to weighty, bodily feelings that will make you feel warm, tingly, and heavy.

The feeling of the high can hit right behind the eyes, preparing you for a good night's rest. A couchlock on Fatso OG is not only common but mandatory – when he sits on you, you’re not getting up for a while.

Fatso OG works well for people that want to treat chronic pain, depression, stress, or mood swings. Fatso OG can be used to release a cramp or muscle spasm as well, which makes it especially useful for women’s health issues and chronic injuries. This strain is so deeply relaxing that you won’t want to leave your couch. If it can alleviate some chronic symptoms even as it boosts your mood, you won’t want to say no to another round of Fatso.

Growing

In terms of growing, Fatso OG is fairly easy to cultivate and perfect for beginner growers. They are happy inside or outside. They produce a heavy yield with 440 g/m² inside. The plants grow short and stalky up to 30 inches. Prepare for a flowering time of 7 to 8 weeks.
