Inferno OG strain guide
Inferno OG, also known as Inferno Haze, is a hybrid of Fire OG and Afghan Haze from Gage Green Group. It smells of lemon, pine and fuel, and people know it for a fast, strong start that settles into a long, steady high.
Where does Inferno OG come from?
Inferno OG was bred by Gage Green Group, a US breeder, from a clone-only Fire OG mother and an Afghan Haze father. One strain database lists Inferno Haze and Inferno OG as the same strain, and two strain databases both point to the same Afghan Haze and Gage Green background.
The name fits the parents: Fire OG on one side and a Haze on the other. Beyond that, there isn't much documented about when it was released.
What does Inferno OG smell and taste like?
The smell is usually described as diesel and lemon with an evergreen edge, closer to cedar and pine. Some people find it quite pungent, and the taste is mostly lemon with a little pepper and fuel on the finish.
One strain database lists myrcene as its main terpene, then caryophyllene and limonene. One posted lab report for a single batch showed the same lead pair, myrcene and caryophyllene. Myrcene brings the earthy base, caryophyllene the peppery bite and limonene the lemon.
Inferno OG effects: what people report
People often describe Inferno OG as happy, uplifted and focused, with a strong head rush at the start. Reports split after that: some find it alert and energetic with little body weight, while others describe a heavier, calming feel that builds over time. One strain database notes it can feel a little hazy at first.
These are experiences people report, not promises. The onset is often called fast and intense, so it's not a great pick for first-timers. Dry mouth is the most common complaint.
How strong is Inferno OG?
Listings put Inferno OG at about 17% to 26% THC, with many descriptions landing near the low 20s. A few sources also report some CBD, up to about 3% in one phenotype, which is unusual for an OG hybrid, so check the label rather than assume.
Start with a small amount and give it time. The numbers on your batch's label matter more than the strain name.
Buying Inferno OG in Canada
You might see it as Inferno OG or Inferno Haze. Don't confuse it with Disco Inferno or Hell Raiser OG, which are different strains.
Look at the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of the lemon and pine.
Inferno OG vs Fire OG
Fire OG is the mother of Inferno OG, and you can smell it: both carry lemon and fuel over an earthy base. Fire OG is the heavier of the two, usually described as a relaxed, end-of-day OG with strong numbers. The Afghan Haze side gives Inferno OG more of a head rush and a piney, cedar note, and more reports of feeling alert. If you want a classic heavy OG, go with Fire OG. If you'd like the same fuel smell with more lift, try Inferno OG.
