Some cultivars are so exceptional that they transcend personal preference and become universally beloved in the cannabis community. These lightning bolt strains quickly gain popularity and often win numerous awards. One such strain is the Double OG Chem, created by Rebel Grown, an off-grid farm in Southern Humboldt known for its high-quality cannabis. This strain is a potent mix of OG, Chem Dog, and Sour Diesel, boasting a THC content of 34%.
Dan Pomerantz, the founder of Rebel Grown, has been passionate about cannabis since a young age. He gained experience in cultivation by experimenting with genetics, organics, and different growing methods. After moving to California and falling in love with the Emerald Triangle, Pomerantz started his own brand, Ganja Rebel Seeds, which became the first seed company to sell seeds in Humboldt County’s medical dispensaries.
Pomerantz recognized the challenges faced by small growers in the changing market and decided to turn hard-to-sell clones into marketable seeds. He bred the Double OG Chem after receiving a collection of genetics and distributing clones to various growers. The #2 Double OG Chem was the most exceptional, and Pomerantz knew it was something special. He distributed it to Kevin Jodrey at Wonderland Nursery, who sold tens of thousands of clones, creating a submarket for this highly sought-after strain.
The success of the Double OG Chem is a testament to Pomerantz’s passion and dedication to finding and creating exceptional cannabis strains. His off-grid farm in the Palo Verde appellation of Southern Humboldt is a hidden gem in the cannabis world, producing some of the most highly coveted strains.
