Strawberry OG by Bliss Pharma: lineage and profile with nerolidol

• Who supplies it. Exclusively Bliss Pharma, so there is nothing to compare versions with, and a supply break means no availability of this strain, not another version of it.
• Profile. Led by nerolidol, alongside humulene, limonene, pinene. We do not provide percentage shares, as sources calculate them against different totals.
• Origin. Established lineage, parents are Bruce Banner #3 and Sfv Og Ibl.
• What is missing. The profile describes one source, so there is nothing to compare it with.

What is Strawberry OG and where does this strain come from?

Strawberry OG is a hybrid bred from the crossing of Bruce Banner #3 with SFV OG IBL. The lineage is provided by the breeder The Cali Connection and the Leafly service, and both Polish databases describing the pharmacy position consistently call it a hybrid. It reaches Polish pharmacies in one version, from the producer Bliss Pharma.

The lineage is based here on two addresses recorded in our database: the official website of the seed breeder and the strain card in a popular catalog. Neither of these sources leaves the parents to speculation, so we do not need to write a sentence about unknown origins. In this comparison, such a sentence often appears: out of eighty-five cultivars, twenty-five do not have established parents because the breeder did not disclose them or the available descriptions contradict each other.

The names of both parents carry the designation of the selected line, not a broad family. The first has a phenotype number, while the second has an inbred line abbreviation. For the last section of this entry, this has practical consequences: a parent named broadly, like afghani or haze, does not allow anyone to identify siblings, as it is a category, not a single plant.

The OG part of the name is sometimes read as belonging to a family. In this comparison, three names carry it, and behind them are three separate lineages with no common part. The genetics are described by both Polish databases with the same word, hybrid, and that is where their agreement ends, as one provides clearly more than the other.

Which producer supplies this strain to Polish pharmacies?

One: Bliss Pharma. In our comparison, this strain has one pharmacy position, described by two Polish strain databases under the same registration name. The name is Cannabis flos with the producer’s note, and we omit the numerical part in it, as it repeats the declared value, not a measured one.

One supplier is the norm in this comparison, not an exception: sixty-four cultivars out of eighty-five have exactly one producer, and more than three have two. Bliss Pharma is responsible here for two strains, each in a single position, so the question about differences between versions of the same strain currently has nothing to relate to.

Both databases describe the same product, only to different extents. The first fills in the aroma and composition columns, while the second leaves them empty, although it provides the same registration name and the same producer. The discrepancy therefore concerns not the product, but how much has been recorded about it, and this is a difference worth understanding when comparing catalogs.

The current assortment and prices are collected in a summary of strains available in pharmacies, as the permission for raw material admission expires, and the wholesaler’s offer changes faster than the text about the strain. A separate shelf is dried cannabis flowers sold without a prescription, whose dispensing path has nothing to do with this strain.

What does Strawberry OG smell and taste like?

• humulene humulene
• limonene limonene
• nerolidol nerolidol (leading in the pharmacy list)
• pinene pinene

Pharmacy databases describe this position by smell, not taste, and the only public description mentions three tones: citrus, woody, and herbal. Strawberries, to which the name refers, are not mentioned in this description at all. The trade name comes from the seed breeder and is not a declaration about the smell of the herb dispensed in the pharmacy.

The terpene composition of this position is known from one source, which lists four names: humulene, limonene, nerolidol, and pinene. The second database describes the same product, but leaves the terpene column empty, so there is nothing to compare it with. Therefore, it cannot be said that the descriptions are either consistent or contradictory. The state of knowledge about the other components of this set, namely humulene, limonene, and pinene, is described in separate entries dedicated to these terpenes.

We do not provide percentage shares for these names, and the reason is calculable. The four numbers that this database assigns to the terpenes of this position sum up to sixty-one, not one hundred. Therefore, thirty-nine parts are missing, about which the source says nothing: neither that they are other terpenes nor that they are the rest of the herb mass. Among one hundred forty-five positions in the same database, the sum can be arbitrary, from fourteen to one hundred twenty-five, and usually falls around eighty-two. A number without a denominator looks like a measurement, but is a record in the column.

The smell of the herb still depends on the batch, storage conditions, and how long the jar has been open. The catalog description speaks of the strain standard, not a specific package dispensed in the pharmacy.

How long does it take for this strain to take effect and how long does the effect last?

The route of administration determines the course more than the strain name itself. For Strawberry OG, no measurement of the onset time has been published, and both databases describing this position do not provide a single number in this regard. Therefore, it can only be honestly described what pertains to two routes of taking the herb in the same form.

The route of administration determines the course more than the strain itself, and the ranges below describe it, not this cultivar, as pharmacokinetic studies for a single cultivar have not been published.

For this position, there is not even a producer’s description that would say anything about the onset of action, so any number assigned specifically to this name would be pulled from thin air. The intervals given above describe physiology, not a single cultivar, and should be read as such.

What has been shown about the effects of this strain, and what has not?

Two things have been shown, both in mice and both about nerolidol, not the strain. For the cultivar Strawberry OG itself, there is no clinical or observational study, so what circulates about its effects comes from catalog descriptions and patient reports, not from scientific work.

It has not been shown that nerolidol alleviates anxiety or insomnia in humans; both available studies concern rodents and describe analgesic, anticonvulsant, and antioxidant effects, not sleep or mood.

On the other side stands the catalog material. The database from which the composition comes assigns this position balanced effects, but that is a label of the column, not a measurement result, and there is no work behind it that could be pointed out. Nerolidol returns in this comparison as a leading component in six strains, which is why the state of knowledge about it is described once, in a separate entry about this terpene.

What side effects have been reported from this strain?

None. For this name, there is no separate compilation of reports, as a single pharmacy position from one producer does not create its own safety statistics, and the same goes for strains with multiple versions. The description below pertains to the raw material, not the cultivar, and should only be read as such.

Reports of side effects are collected for a medicinal product with a batch number, not for a strain name, so the following pertains to cannabis herb as a group of raw materials. The most commonly reported are dry mouth, red eyes, and increased heart rate. Less frequently described are dizziness upon rapid standing, daytime drowsiness, and temporary worsening of short-term memory, as well as anxiety that increases with dosage. A separate issue is medications taken concurrently, especially sedatives and those affecting coagulation: their assessment requires knowledge of the entire list of preparations, not just the description of the plant. We do not provide the frequency of these symptoms numerically, as public compilations for cannabis herb in Poland do not separate them by individual products.

If such a record for this name were to be created, it still could not be related to previous batches, as the composition of the herb can vary between harvests. Symptoms are reported to the attending physician or pharmacist, not to the author of the strain description.

Can a vaporization temperature table be arranged for it?

No. Among the four terpenes listed in the profile of this position, the public chemical database provides boiling temperatures along with pressure only for two. The third has a record without specified pressure, the fourth only a measurement in almost vacuum, so setting these numbers in one column would be false.

The leading component performs the worst here. For nerolidol, the database provides a number without the pressure at which it was measured, and boiling temperature without pressure cannot be compared with anything else. The popular advice to aim for the temperature of your leading terpene therefore has no point of reference here, and we break this down further in a separate entry about temperature tables.

Humulene shows the same problem from the other side: its value was measured under pressure close to vacuum, that is, in conditions that do not exist in a vaporizer. The number placed in the table next to atmospheric values looks innocent and is simply untrue. The number selected on the device describes, after all, the heating element or air, not the herb, which when inhaled is cooled by airflow and heats unevenly.

Vaporization begins below the boiling point, so these points are not thresholds for activation. The method of administration is determined by the attending physician, as the herb is dispensed by prescription, and this entry speaks of the limits of public data, not equipment operation.

Which strains from Polish pharmacies are related to it?

None. In the pedigree graph of this comparison, there is no cultivar that has Strawberry OG among its parents, nor one that shares even one parent with it. Both of its parents appear in this graph exactly once, solely in its own row, and that is the whole answer.

In the data, however, there is something else. The graph includes eighty-five names and ninety-eight different parents, of which seventy-seven appear only once. Eleven names appear in a dual role: once as a pharmacy strain, once as a parent of someone else’s lineage. The parents of Strawberry OG do not belong to this eleven, so there is no reference to be made.

The common part of the name proves nothing. Galaxy Walker OG has parents who have nothing to do with the parents of this strain, and OG Kush is in this comparison a separate pharmacy cultivar, not an ancestor of Strawberry OG. Three names share one word here, and that is where the kinship ends.

An empty sibling list can also be a correct result with broadly described parents, as no one can derive anyone from a style category. Here the reason is different and narrower: the parents are named precisely, only they do not return in any other lineage from this list. If they did return, the graph would have added siblings, not the author of the text.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Strawberry OG an indica or sativa?

Both Polish databases describing this position call it a hybrid and do not provide any proportions. The registration name does not contain such a division at all.

How many versions of this strain are in Polish pharmacies?

One, from the producer Bliss Pharma. This is the only position of this strain in our comparison.

Why do you not provide the active substance content for this strain?

Because the source provides one declared number and does not provide the producer’s tolerance, and without it, the declared value looks like a measurement. Providing it alone would be misleading.

Do two sources confirm the terpene composition of this position?

No. Only one of the two databases describing this product lists it, the other leaves the terpene column empty.

Does nerolidol help with sleep?

It has not been shown in humans. Available studies concern mice and describe analgesic, anticonvulsant, and antioxidant effects.

Does Strawberry OG smell like strawberries?

The only public description of the aroma of this position mentions citrus, woody, and herbal tones and does not mention strawberries.
