Information about Grape OX:
It seems like new hybrids are popping up every day. As it is, estimating the number of strains is impossible. As breeders develop new ones, a trend began over the past decades where the focus was not only on varieties that flowers quickly and produces high yield, but also possess an insane amount of THC. Grape OX, though, is an exemption.
Instead of only raising its THC level, the breeder Rare Dankness also prioritized a hybrid that has a higher than average CBD level. As such, its effectivity as an alternative to drugs is better than most other strains.
In a sense, Grape OX is the middle ground between recreational and medical use. Of its most notable claim to fame is in its being named as the third best Indica in the 2014 High Times Michigan Medical Cannabis Cup.

Grape OX is 90% Indica. Also, tests have shown it to contain as much as 24% THC. While it is possible that some users may feel active in the beginning as a result of the motivating mental high, the real experience of Grape OX only comes once it kicks into the body. Once it does, it is very potent and can be quite intense.
