OG Cheddar (UK Cheese x 707 OG Kush) is UK Cheese crossed to 707 OG Kush. UK Cheese is a single Skunk #1 keeper out of Britain, kept as a cutting for three decades. 707 OG Kush is the 707 house OG - SFV OG worked for Humboldt. Between them they cover ground neither reaches alone. Bred in the Emerald Triangle for the Emerald Triangle, which is a narrower brief than most breeders set themselves.

The number in UK Cheese x 707 is a specific plant, not a decoration. 707 Seedbank grow a population out, keep the individuals worth keeping and number them, so UK Cheese x 707 is one identified selection rather than UK Cheese x in general. A pack naming a different number is a different mother.

Order matters in a cross name. In OG Cheddar (UK Cheese x 707 OG Kush) the UK Cheese side supplied the seed and 707 OG Kush the pollen, and the reciprocal - the same two plants the other way round - is a separate breeding decision with its own results.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: UK Cheese. The Exodus clone - one Skunk #1 plant found in Britain around 1990 and never let go of. Given as a Skunk #1 phenotype, not a cross. Famously forgiving and often recommended to beginners; spread by the Exodus Collective.
• Father: 707 OG Kush. 707 OG Kush, the backbone of this catalogue. Built from described as a developed SFV OG; the wider OG Kush family is generally traced to Chemdog with a Lemon Thai influence and a Hindu or Pakistani Kush. 707 is the area code covering Humboldt, Mendocino and Trinity. The line was stabilised for Northern California conditions specifically, which is why resin and outdoor finishing matter more in its selection than yield figures do.
• What the cross is reaching for. One side brings the structure and the other brings the nose. The plants worth keeping out of a pack are the ones that hold both rather than picking a side.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

The two halves stack rather than blend, which is the whole reason to run it.

• The Aroma. Tangy cheddar over earthy, skunky sweetness, loud enough to fill a house from the UK Cheese side, against the West Coast OG signature - fuel and lemon from the 707 OG Kush side.
• The Taste. Sour cheese and earth up front, turning to lemon over OG fuel, with earth behind it through the exhale.

How the two sides differ

• What to budget. The documented side, UK Cheese, runs seven to nine weeks depending on source. Set the room to that and let the plants correct you.
• Where the nose comes from. One side gives tangy cheddar over earthy, skunky sweetness, loud enough to fill a house; the other gives the West Coast OG signature - fuel and lemon. Plants landing in the middle are the keepers.
• Structure varies hard here. Slender, vine-like branches carrying spear-shaped colas with big swollen calyxes under a dense sticky trichome coat; grows with real vigour despite leaning indica from one parent; balanced indica-sativa, and selected for rugged outdoor production rather than for a tent from the other. Plan the canopy for the taller outcome.
• Opposite ends. UK Cheese is reported as balanced and sociable; slight indica weight; 707 OG Kush as OG potency, in the Humboldt style rather than the dispensary one. The cross sits somewhere between and moves plant to plant.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. UK Cheese is a spreading plant that wants support. 707 OG Kush is balanced indica-sativa, and selected for rugged outdoor production rather than for a tent.
• Veg and stretch. Set the frame while it is cheap to do. Anything you fix after the flip costs you flower sites.
• Flowering Time. UK Cheese runs seven to nine weeks depending on source. Start checking trichomes a week before you expect to be ready.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe UK Cheese as balanced and sociable; slight indica weight.
• The Body. 707 OG Kush is reported as OG potency, in the Humboldt style rather than the dispensary one, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

10 regular seeds per pack. Seeds from 707 Seedbank. Most of this catalogue runs through one OG they have selected and re-selected, which is why the crosses share a backbone. Genuine 707 Seedbank stock.
