Introduced by DNA Genetics, OG #18 is commonly known as “Private Reserve”. Delivering a long-lasting sedative and euphoric high, the indica-dominant hybrid is best for relaxation and stress relief. Let’s face it, after a family-centered holiday season, a little rest and relaxation is called for.

The taste of the flower has sour undertones and is popular worldwide. OG #18 has won numerous awards. A winner of the High Times Cannabis Cup in 2009 and 2010, it has also come away with top honors at the Europe Champions Cup in 2010, as well as the Spannabis Indoor Hydro Cup, also in 2010.

Because OG #18 is an indica-dominant strain and can bring on a deep sense of relaxation, it helps those suffering from insomnia and anxiety. The relaxed state has also been shown to lessen muscle spasms which are often experienced by individuals suffering from chronic pain. The side effects of OG #18 are dry mouth and dry eyes.

For those medicinal marijuana users who also have grow certifications, OG #18 can flower in nine weeks indoor.

OG #18 is available at Earth’s Healing Dispensary, located at 2075 E. Benson Hwy. and 78 W. River Rd., in Tucson. For more information, visit EarthsHealing.org. See ad, page 55.
