Description

An alternate-claim record for OG Kush. Where the primary OG Kush record asserts a Chemdog × Hindu Kush × Lemon Thai lineage (the most widely cited account), this record asserts only the Chemdog parentage and treats the rest as unverified — reflecting the position taken by a non-trivial portion of the original community, who hold that OG Kush is a Chemdog phenotype rather than a hybrid.

Both records are intentionally preserved as distinct PDS records. The AppView's canonicalization workflow (Phase 3) will eventually cluster them under a single canonical entry while preserving the lineage disagreement as visible context — saying "these are the same strain" does not say "this lineage is correct," per the canonicalization design notes.

This record exists primarily as a Phase 3 test fixture: a ready-made duplicate cluster against which canonicalization tooling can be exercised.
