The Chemdawg strain is a hybrid with a sharp, chemical, diesel-like smell. Chemdog is its original name, and our label spells it Chem Dawg. Its origin is disputed. No parents are documented, and the bag seed it grew from was only thought to be from Northern California.

|---|---|
| Lignée | Unknown; no parents documented |
| Arôme et saveur | Chemical, diesel, pungent, earthy |
| Terpène le plus fréquent | Caryophyllène, puis myrcène et limonène |
| THC | Leafly indique environ 18 %; chaque lot est différent, alors vérifiez l'étiquette |
| Origine | Disputed; bag seed thought to be from Northern California, grown out from 1991 |
Arôme et saveur
Reviewers put chemical at the top of Chemdawg’s flavour list, then diesel and pungent, with earthy, skunk and pine further down. In lab data the leading terpene is caryophyllene, described as spicy and peppery, followed by myrcene and limonene.
Grow notes say plants may express fruity or diesel-smelling phenotypes. Our Chem Dawg cured resin is listed as diesel and sharp citrus with an earthy finish.
Lignée
The original grower has said Chemdawg came from what was thought to be Northern California bag seed, picked up at a concert in Colorado. It has been grown and shared since 1991.
Chemdog joined two nicknames for the same bud, “Chem” and “Dog bud”, and the spelling Chemdawg spread as other growers propagated it. Chem 91, Chem 4 and Chem Sis are variations of it.
Some of its children are documented. Sour Diesel is a cross of Chemdawg and Super Skunk. OG Kush is listed as Chemdawg crossed with Hindu Kush, though its own write-up says that cross was “supposedly” made. Purple Chemdawg’s documented parents are Chemdawg and Granddaddy Purple. We stock Sour Diesel as shatter and a liquid diamonds cart, and Purple Chemdawg as a live resin cart.
How we sell Chem Dawg
We carry Chem Dawg in one format: Pacific Northwest Black Label Chem Dawg Hybrid Cured Resin 1oz, a 28 g jar at $170. The listing says it’s extracted from dried and cured Chem Dawg trim in BC.
Cured resin is extracted from plants dried and cured first; live resin starts from plants frozen at harvest. Many cured resins get terpenes added back, but this listing says its terpenes are the strain’s own. Cured resin ou live resin compare les deux.
A dab is about the size of a grain of rice. The listing says the jar is sold by the ounce for people who use concentrates regularly and want one strain in quantity. It’s dabbed on a rig or in a dab pen (see Comment faire un dab); we don’t sell the hardware.
Black Label also makes an OG Kush cured resin in the same 1 oz jar at $170. Both are in our Baller Jars category.
Indica, sativa et à quoi s'attendre
Les noms et les types de variétés sont un point de départ, pas une garantie. Des études sur de vrais produits de cannabis ont montré que les étiquettes ne prédisent pas de façon fiable la chimie d'un produit, et que deux lots portant le même nom peuvent différer. Lisez l'étiquette du produit pour le THC, et consultez L'indica rend-elle somnolent? pour comprendre pourquoi.
Questions fréquentes
Is Chemdawg indica or sativa?
A hybrid. Our Chem Dawg cured resin is labelled hybrid too.
What are Chemdawg’s parents?
They aren’t documented. It grew from bag seed of unconfirmed origin, so its lineage is disputed.
Is Chem Dawg the same as Chemdog?
Yes. Chemdog is the original name; Chemdawg, Chem Dawg and Chem Dog are other spellings.
How strong is Chemdawg?
Leafly lists it at about 18% THC. A cured resin has its own THC figure, so read the jar’s label.
