How to Germinate Scott OG Regular Seeds
A healthy harvest starts at germination. The paper towel method is hard to beat: fold the Scott OG Regular seeds inside two damp sheets, slide them between two plates, and keep them somewhere dark at 70 to 79°F. A taproot usually appears in two to five days.
Once the taproot is a few millimeters long, move each seed root-down about 1 cm deep into a small pot of light, airy medium. Keep it lightly moist rather than soaked, hold humidity around 65 to 70%, and give soft light while the first true leaves open. Its sturdy Triangle Kush and Rare Dankness genetics make for a vigorous, dependable seedling.
Starter tips
- Use plain, lightly pH-balanced water (pH 5.5 to 6.5) for the first week.
- Keep seedlings warm and humid, but never waterlogged.
- Hold off on nutrients until the second set of serrated leaves appears.
Growing Scott OG Regular in the Vegetative Stage
Scott OG Regular likes a temperate climate and, as a 70% indica, it grows into a sturdy, bushy plant reaching around 1.5 m. Keep it on 18 hours of light a day, aim for day temperatures of 68 to 79°F, and hold humidity around 50 to 60%. Its tough OG frame makes it a resilient, steady grower through veg.
This is the stage to shape the plant. Light topping and low-stress training open up the dense indica canopy and improve airflow and light to the lower buds, which is how you push its yield toward the top of its range. Keep the plants spaced so a bushy indica does not crowd itself.
Its sturdy frame and October finish make it a solid outdoor plant across much of the US:
- Southern California and the Southwest: the warm, dry season suits its 8 to 10 week bloom and keeps the dense, resinous colas clean through October.
- Pacific Northwest and cooler states: its hardy OG genetics handle cool nights well and finish before the wet autumn sets in.
- Colorado and mountain states: its resilient roots and October harvest suit shorter, cooler mountain seasons.
Identifying the Sex of Your Plants
Because Scott OG Regular is a regular strain, roughly half your plants will be male and half female, so identifying their sex is a step you cannot skip. Watch the nodes late in veg and in the first week or two after you flip to 12/12: females show thin white pistils where the branches meet the stem, while males form small round pollen sacs.
If your goal is flower, pull the males as soon as you spot them so they cannot pollinate the females and fill your buds with seeds. If you are breeding, this is the whole point: keep a strong male, select your best female, and you can preserve or cross this OG-heavy line yourself.
Flowering and Buds of Scott OG Regular
Indoors, flip Scott OG Regular to a 12/12 light cycle to trigger flowering, which runs 8 to 10 weeks. Outdoors it ripens through October. As a 70% indica it has a short stretch after the flip, then settles into dense, chunky, resinous colas true to its OG heritage.
Through bloom, drop humidity to 40 to 45% and keep air moving so the tight flowers do not trap moisture. The buds build a sharp Kush, lemon and sour aroma and frost up well, pointing to the Triangle Kush and Rare Dankness behind them.
At 16 to 19% THC it sits comfortably in the medium range, so the effect is balanced and pleasant rather than overwhelming, which makes it an easy strain to enjoy without being floored.
Common Problems and Pro Tips
Scott OG Regular is a moderate grow, but its dense OG buds and regular genetics point to a few things worth watching.
- Bud density and mold: its tight, resinous colas can trap humidity, so keep a fan moving and humidity below 45% late in flower.
- Identify the sex on time: as a regular strain it throws males, so check the nodes early and remove males before they pollinate your flowering plants.
- Canopy airflow: this bushy indica crowds itself, so defoliate lightly and space plants out to keep air flowing to the lower buds.
Expert tip: its deep OG and Kush background loves a steady feed through the stretch, then an easing off of nitrogen in bloom. Let cool nights late in flower sharpen the resin and deepen the color for a frosty, flavorful harvest, and save your best male and female if you want to keep this genetic going.
Aroma, Flavor and Effects
The nose is loud and classic OG: an earthy, piney Kush backbone lifted by bright lemon and a sour citrus tang. It is pungent and sharp rather than sweet, and it grows more intense as the buds cure.
The flavor follows the nose, a bold Kush base with lemon and a sour, zesty finish. On the effect side it is happy and relaxing, an easy-going lift that tends to bring on the munchies, so keep a snack handy. Because THC is moderate at 16 to 19%, it stays balanced and approachable rather than heavy.
Dominant terpenes
Scott OG Regular is shaped by four terpenes: Caryophyllene, Myrcene, Pinene and Limonene. Caryophyllene brings a peppery, spicy warmth; Myrcene the earthy, musky base; Pinene a fresh pine lift; and Limonene the bright lemon note that ties straight into its citrus flavor. Together they explain its sharp Kush and lemon aroma and its relaxed, happy feel.
Nutrient Schedule
Treat the figures below as a starting map, not a rulebook. Scott OG Regular feeds steadily through the stretch, so read the plant first: tip burn means back off, while pale, slow growth means it wants a little more. All values use EC.
| Stage | EC |
|---|---|
| Seedling | 0.4–0.6 |
| Growth | 0.8–1.2 |
| Early flower | 1.2–1.4 |
| Full flower | 1.4–1.6 |
| Flush | 0.0–0.4 |
Keep the pH around 6.0 to 6.5 in soil and 5.5 to 6.0 in hydro so the roots can actually take up what you feed.
What to Do With Your Trim: Extracts and Hash
Scott OG Regular frosts up with resin from its Triangle Kush and Rare Dankness side, so its trim is well worth keeping. The sugar leaves you take off while manicuring carry plenty of trichomes and suit Ice Water Hash, where cold water and agitation separate the resin heads into a clean, solventless concentrate. Pressing that hash into rosin keeps the Kush and lemon flavor intact, or you can run a solvent extraction if that is your setup. The bare stems will not extract, but chopped and composted they feed organic matter back into the soil for your next grow.
Harvesting, Drying and Curing Scott OG Regular
Timing the harvest comes down to the trichomes. Grab a loupe and watch the heads turn from clear to milky white; a scattering of amber signals peak ripeness. Indoors this lands 8 to 10 weeks after the flip, and outdoors the plants are ready through October.
After the cut, hang the branches in a dark room at 59 to 68°F with humidity near 50% and gentle air movement. Slow beats fast: drying over 10 to 14 days protects the Kush, lemon and sour aromas that define this strain. When the small stems snap instead of bending, move the buds into jars.
Cure in sealed glass, opening the jars daily for the first week to let moisture escape, then easing off as the aroma deepens. Two to four weeks of patience here is where the bold Kush and lemon flavor really comes forward, and it is the step most first-time growers rush.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Scott OG Regular hard to grow?
Scott OG Regular is a moderate grow rather than a beginner one. It is sturdy and vigorous thanks to its Triangle Kush and Rare Dankness roots, but as a regular strain you need to identify the sex of each plant, and its dense indica buds want good airflow late in flower. Stay on top of those two points and it is manageable.
How long does Scott OG Regular take to flower?
Scott OG Regular flowers in 8 to 10 weeks once you switch it to a 12/12 light cycle indoors. Grown outdoors, it is ready through October. As a 70% indica it has a short stretch after the flip, so it stays sturdy and fills out into dense, resinous colas fairly quickly and reliably.
How strong is Scott OG Regular?
Scott OG Regular is a medium-strength strain, with a THC level of 16 to 19%. The effect is happy and relaxing with a tendency to bring on the munchies, a balanced lift rather than an overpowering one. That moderate potency makes it an easy, enjoyable strain for a wide range of growers and users.
How much does Scott OG Regular yield?
Scott OG Regular gives a high yield for a careful grower, with indoor figures around 1.47 to 1.64 oz/ft² and outdoor plants producing roughly 12.35 to 15.87 oz each. Topping, training the canopy, and giving it strong light are what push it toward the top of that range.
Why choose Scott OG Regular over feminized seeds?
Scott OG Regular gives you both male and female plants, which feminized seeds do not. That matters if you want to breed, make your own seeds, or preserve this OG-heavy line, since you need a male to do it. Many growers also feel regular genetics give strong, stable mother plants for cloning.
What does Scott OG Regular taste and smell like?
Scott OG Regular leads with an earthy, piney Kush backbone lifted by bright lemon and a sour citrus tang. It is pungent and sharp rather than sweet, straight from its Triangle Kush and Rare Dankness roots. Both the smell and taste intensify as the buds cure slowly in the jar after harvest.
