# OG Kush

> OG Kush is a hybrid with disputed original parents: Leafly lists Chemdawg and Hindu Kush, while Weedmaps lists Chemdog and Lemon Thai. It tests at a median total THC of 20.87% across 379 state lab tests of OG Kush flower, with the middle half of results between 18.06% and 23.36%; those measurements describe labelled flower rather than one verified original cut. Leafly’s top user-report labels are hungry, relaxed and sleepy.
