Afghan Kush

Description

Afghan Kush Strain Info

If you’re into pure Indicas with their earth-shattering stoned sensations and heavy-handed time-stopping bliss, Afghan Kush can become your ultimate strain. Use it to relax after a stressful day or to relieve chronic medical conditions – and enjoy the solid but smooth incense-like smoke in the process.

Genetics

Afghan Kush’s lineage traces back all the way to the endemic cannabis of the Hindu Kush mountain slopes without any later influences or genetic modifications. As such, this genetic is ideal for those seeking a pure old-school experience or for making crosses with other strains.

Flowering Time

With Afghan Kush seeds, you can count on an extremely short flowering time, as this landrace developed in a mountainous climate with short and cool summers. This is convenient in outdoor gardens but also indoors, where the plants only take 50-60 days of 12/12 to finish.

Yields

By harvest time, Afghan Kush gets covered all over with big and tight buds that bring in as much as 1.3-1.6 oz/ft² (400-500 g/m²) indoors. Outdoor-grown plants, while not very tall, produce a hefty 1.1-1.3 lb (500-600 g) each.

Effects

For most users, the effects of smoking these buds will be heavily sedating, with deep body relaxation and noticeable sleepiness. However, the high doesn’t have to be narcotic, and experienced smokers can use this in small doses throughout the day to gently boost energy levels and improve their mood.

Medical Properties

When used as a daytime medicine, Afghan Kush is effective against fatigue, but most medical patients consume it to relax the body, relieve muscle spasms, and improve sleep.

THC and CBD Levels

Afghan Kush is a potent hybrid with THC levels testing at 17-23% depending on the particular genetic makeup of the phenotype and environmental conditions in the grow room. The CBD content hovers around a moderate 1%.

Smell and Taste

Given the high stability of Afghan Kush, this landrace’s aroma and taste are unmistakable to anyone who has tried it at least once. Its incense-like smell ushers in a delicious smoke that leaves an aftertaste of earth on the palate.

Grow Tips

Originating from a mountainous region with hot days and cold nights, Afghan Kush is very resistant to mold, fungi, and pests, and she flourishes outdoors. However, her strong genetics make this strain adaptable to any growing environment or method of cultivation. Her medium height of only 3’3”-4’3” (100-130 cm) makes her a perfect cultivar for tight grow spaces and inconspicuous guerilla grows.

• Make plants bushier with topping and low-stress training.
• Defoliate well, as the internodes are tight and the canopy dense.
• Check for signs of mold and bud rot, as the flowers tend to accumulate moisture.
