Origins
The original Tahoe OG was a one-off phenotype of OG Kush saved by a Lake Tahoe grower in the late 1990s. Rather than cross it, Dr. Blaze reversed that mother and self-pollinated her, preserving the cut’s exact genetics in seed form. The result: Tahoe OG S1, an all-female line that delivers clone-only authenticity with none of the hunting.
