No, we’re not talking about the 1987 movie that likely gave all of us nightmares when we speak of Hell Raiser OG, as this bud is the complete opposite of a horror flick. Crafted by Archive Seed Bank in Oregon, this slightly indica-dominant bud is a cross between Fire OG and Face Off OG. She took home first place in the Concentrates category at the 2014 High Times San Francisco Cannabis Cup and has been a legend ever since.

A moderate potency range between 15% and 20% THC makes this strain great for nearly all users, as she’s strong without being overwhelming. Quite pretty to look at, you’ll find this flower is very large with a lot of leaves, bright orange hairs, and amber-toned crystals. Flavors and aromas tend to take on an interesting mix of lemon, pine, and some sweet herbal qualities that help to offset her sour notes.

Rather than trashing the house party down the street as her name might make you imagine, Hell Raiser OG offers a nice blend of motivating and relaxing effects that are great for the end of a long day. Users find that their high comes on quickly and hits like lightning, offering a euphoric state of mind along with a slight bit of energy that could help with mundane tasks. At the same time, a feeling of sedation will creep its way into every bone in your body, and before long you’ll want to do nothing but kick your feet up and have a laugh with a few friends.

Given that Hell Raiser OG puts users in such a good mood, it’s obvious why she’s become a great choice for those who deal with stress and depression on a regular basis. Physical pain can also be soothed with a few tokes, so the next time you have a headache or are dealing with inflammation or cramps, this strain is the one to pick. Depending on your tolerance, she may even help to fight feelings of fatigue, at least initially before you become fully relaxed.

Thankfully, this strain is pretty easygoing in the garden and loves dry and warm climates. Indoor growth may be fine, but if you can manage, outdoor cultivation will truly let her thrive. Hearty and resistant to mold, mildew, and pests, Hell Raiser OG does take slightly longer to mature than many other strains. After 9 to 10 weeks, however, you’ll be gifted with a huge harvest.

Hell Raiser OG may come across as rather intimidating at first, but after a few puffs, you’ll soon realize that she can be one of your most trusted companions. Enjoy this strain during the weekend when you want to do a bit of chores before relaxing and make sure to invite some friends over to join in on the fun.
