San Fernando Valley OG is one of those strains that doesn’t rush you… it settles you.
Smooth inhale, calm head, relaxed body, then out of nowhere you realize you’ve melted into the chair a little more than planned.

In this episode, we break down San Fernando Valley OG from Fire Star and how it actually shows up in real life, not just on paper. The flavor leans sour, earthy, a little cheesy on the back end, and surprisingly solid for older flower.

What’s driving that experience:

Terpenes you’ll usually see:
• Myrcene – that heavy, body-relax feel
• Caryophyllene – adds a little spice, helps take the edge off stress
• Limonene – keeps your head from going fully foggy
• Linalool – soft, calming, slightly floral layer

This combo is why it feels balanced at first… but if you keep going, it leans more into that relaxed, almost sleepy zone.

Cannabinoids (typical range):
• THC: ~18–24%
• CBD: usually very low, often <1%
• CBN: [Inference] may be slightly elevated in older flower, which can add to that sleepy, slower feel

So even if the THC doesn’t look crazy, the experience stacks differently because of how everything works together.

What we actually felt from it:
Calm, steady head
Relaxed body without instant knockout
Slow creeper onset
Clear at first, heavier if you keep going

This isn’t a “go conquer the world” strain.
It’s more like… finish what you’re doing, then chill.

We also get into dry herb vapes vs joints, why hand-rolled still wins for flavor early on, kombucha experiments, and the reality of 4/20 deals, good for your stash, rough on your wallet.

If you like something that lets you stay present but takes the edge off your body, San Fernando Valley OG does that really well.
