A user-reported descriptor, not a clinical outcome or a prediction. Compare sample sizes and source methods before interpreting reports.

Read it in context

A measured compound profile belongs to a tested sample. Associations, aroma descriptors and traditional labels do not establish clinical effects.

OG Kush

OG Kush is a hybrid name central to several later catalog families, including GSC and Headband. Leafly describes a Florida-to-California history but qualifies the proposed early cross rather than documenting a settled pedigree. Its listed aroma descriptors include wood, pine and earth, while its chemistry section names myrcene, limonene and caryophyllene. The uncertain origin story is retained as an attributed account; a shared OG name does not establish identical ancestry or chemistry.

Gelato

Gelato belongs to the family that Leafly traces to Sunset Sherbet and Thin Mint GSC. The source also uses Larry Bird and Gelato #42, and distinguishes other numbered Gelato selections. This makes the exact name important when comparing records: the broad Gelato entry should not silently absorb every numbered selection. Sweet, floral and pepper descriptors on the profile are reader-reported tags, separate from the source's caryophyllene, limonene and humulene listing.

Wedding Cake

Wedding Cake is listed by Leafly as Triangle Mints #23, with Pink Cookies used as another regional name. Its reported cross connects Triangle Kush and Animal Mints. Vanilla, pepper and butter appear among the reader flavor tags, giving this profile more detail than its dessert-themed name alone. The catalog's cannabinoid values remain source summaries; the naming history and reported parent cross do not establish a fixed composition for everything sold under this name.

GSC

GSC is the catalog entry also known as Girl Scout Cookies. Leafly attributes it to Jigga and describes an OG Kush subtype crossed with F1 Durban. That intermediate parent name matters: it should not automatically be replaced with Durban Poison. Thin Mint and Platinum GSC are discussed as related variations rather than interchangeable specimens. Mint, sweet and earthy reader tags help describe the catalog profile but do not authenticate its genetics.

Granddaddy Purple

Granddaddy Purple, often shortened to GDP, is associated in Leafly's account with Ken Estes and 2003. Its pedigree is less settled than that familiar name suggests: the source presents both a Mendo Purps/Skunk/Afghan account and a Big Bud × Purple Urkle account. This profile keeps that disagreement visible. Grape, berry and violet are reported flavor descriptors, not evidence that either proposed family tree has been confirmed.

hybrid06
Chemdawg

Chemdawg is linked by Leafly to the original Chemdog name and a 1991 bag-seed account attributed to breeder Chemdog. Finding seeds in acquired material explains a discovery story, not the identity of both parent plants. The source distinguishes Chem 91, Chem 4 and Chem Sis as variations, which should not be collapsed into interchangeable specimens. Chemical, diesel and pungent are reader descriptors; the names alone do not identify measured ingredients or authenticated genetics.

indica07
Northern Lights

Northern Lights is listed by Leafly as an indica with reported Afghani and Thai ancestry. Its history section treats the Seattle origin story as a rumor and describes later distribution through the Netherlands. That uncertainty is part of the record, not a missing detail to fill by guesswork. Pine, earth and wood appear in its reader flavor tags. Numbered selections such as Northern Lights #5 require their own provenance rather than automatic equivalence with this broader entry.

Bubba Kush

Bubba Kush is an indica-classified name with an explicitly uncertain pedigree in Leafly's account. The source describes OG Kush pollinating a plant called Bubba, whose identity was not established; Northern Lights is presented as a possibility rather than a confirmed parent. Coffee, earthy and pungent are reader flavor tags on the profile. Those impressions and the plant's appearance cannot resolve the unknown parent's identity, so the uncertainty remains part of the family record.

Blueberry

Blueberry, also called Berry Blue, is associated with DJ Short's work beginning in the late 1970s. Leafly describes Thai-related ancestry and notes that material passed between breeders and seed banks over time. This history is a reason to preserve source and selection details rather than assume all Blueberry records describe one identical plant. Blueberry, berry and sweet are reader flavor descriptors; the fruit name alone is not a chemical measurement or proof of parentage.
