Rolex OG Kush: The Timeless Heavyweight
Rolex OG Kush: The Timeless Heavyweight
Strain Overview
Type: Indica-Dominant Hybrid (60% Indica / 40% Sativa)
Breeder: The Devil’s Harvest Seeds (Often stylized as Rollex OG Kush)
Lineage: White Fire OG (WiFi) x Kuchi
Market Status: The "Cup Winner"; Rolex OG Kush (or Rollex) is a modern legend in the Amsterdam scene. It exploded in popularity after dominating the 2013 High Times Cannabis Cup, taking 1st Place Overall. It is famous for its "Timeless" effect—a pun on the luxury watch brand—because the high is so potent and disorienting that users often lose track of hours. It is widely considered one of the strongest OG Kush variations ever released in Europe.
THC Content: 20% – 23% (Heavy & Narcotic)
Dominant Terpenes: Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Pinene
Key Effects: "Timeless" Euphoria, Heavy Body Stone, Appetite Stimulation, Sleepiness
While most OGs are famous for their lemon-fuel kick, Rolex OG Kush brings something savory to the table.
The Devil's Harvest Seeds wanted to create a strain that combined the devastating power of the American "White" genetics with the funk of the European Cheese. By crossing the frost-covered White Fire OG with their own Kuchi (a Cheese x OG cross), they created a monster. It offers the best of both worlds: the rock-hard, crystal-coated look of the US West Coast and the deep, savory flavor of the Amsterdam Underground.
History and Lineage: The Trans-Atlantic Cross
This strain represents the moment when American fire met Dutch funk.
The Mother (White Fire OG): Also known as WiFi. This is a legendary US strain famous for looking like it was dipped in sugar. It provides the extreme resin production and the soaring cerebral onset.
The Father (Kuchi): A Devil's Harvest original. It is a cross of Exodus Cheese x SFV OG Kush. This parent brings the compact structure and the distinct cheesy, skunky undertone that makes Rolex OG unique.
The Name: Originally spelled "Rollex" to avoid trademark lawsuits, the name was chosen because the breeders felt the strain represented the "High End" luxury of the cannabis market. It is smooth, expensive-tasting, and heavy.
Terpene Profile: Cheesy Pine and Fuel
This is not a sweet dessert strain. It is savory, aggressive, and complex.
Dominant Terpenes
Myrcene (The Musk): The dominant terpene. It provides the heavy, damp earth base that contributes to the "couch-lock" effect.
Limonene (The Citrus): Inherited from the OG lineage, adding a sharp lemon floor cleaner scent.
Caryophyllene (The Spice): Provides a peppery, spicy kick.
Unique Note: The Kuchi parent adds a distinct stale cheese funk that separates this from other OGs.
Flavor Notes:
The Aroma: It is loud. It smells of sharp lemon, aged cheese, pine forest, and diesel fuel.
The Smoke: Thick and expansive. It tastes of skunky cheese, spicy earth, and pine. It is a savory smoke that coats the mouth.
Strain Effects: The Lost Hours
Rolex OG Kush is famous for a "creeper" effect that eventually shuts down the entire system.
The Experience
The Rush: Thanks to the White Fire genetics, the high starts with a burst of euphoric energy. You feel happy, chatty, and mentally stimulated.
The Drift: After about 30 minutes, the Kuchi (Indica) genetics take over. You start to lose track of time. What felt like 10 minutes was actually an hour.
The Stone: A heavy, warm sensation moves through the limbs. It is excellent for watching movies—you will be engaged but physically glued to the couch.
The Hunger: It is a top-tier strain for the munchies.
Best For: Lazy Sundays, recovering from a long trip, chronic pain, appetite loss, and high-tolerance users who are bored of "weak" weed.
Growing Rolex OG Kush: The Frosty Bush
This strain is a favorite among concentrate makers because the resin return is enormous.
Growth Structure
The Shape: It grows with an Indica structure—Short and Bushy. It produces many side branches that grow upwards, creating a flat canopy.
The Yield: High. The buds are dense and heavy.
The Time: It finishes flowering in 8 to 9 weeks (55–60 days).
The Color: It often stays bright green, but the white trichome coverage is so thick it can make the plant look silver or grey (hence the "Rolex" shine).
The Training: It loves to be topped. Because it grows bushy, spreading it out in a SCROG net will maximize the yield of the top colas.
Grower’s Tip: This strain is a heavy feeder. It can handle high levels of nutrients (EC) without burning. However, due to the Cheese influence, it is notoriously smelly. Carbon filters are mandatory from the second week of flower.
Final Verdict: The Luxury Indica
Rolex OG Kush is a strain that lives up to its gold-medal reputation. It took the standard "OG Kush" formula and upgraded it with European durability and flavor. It offers a unique profile—mixing the fresh lemon of California with the dank cheese of the UK—and delivers a high that is potent enough to satisfy even the most hardened smoker. If you want a strain that looks like a diamond and hits like a sledgehammer, it's time to check your Rolex.
You should choose Rolex OG Kush if:
You love Cheesy/Savory flavors.
You need "High-End" Potency.
You are a Concentrate Maker (High resin).
You want to "Lose Track of Time."
Score: 9.7/10 (The Cup Winner)
