What is the Babushka strain?
Babushka is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and skunk flavor profile.
Babushka is a mostly indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by Aztech Genetics as their interpretation of the legendary Dutch 1990s White Russian strain. The strain is Aztech Genetics' version of the popular Dutch 90's White Russian strain, created exactly the same way by pairing two pedigree parents, White Widow and AK-47. Babushka is an indica dominant hybrid combining the genes of two legendary strains infamous for their incredibly potent effects. The strain inherits the robust genetics of its parent strains, with White Widow contributing its renowned resin production and balanced effects, while AK-47 brings its vigorous growth and cerebral potency. Plants are mainly indica dominant and produce big fat colas that are literally dripping with resin. THC levels are consistently above 22% and the strain is relatively easy to grow. The name 'Babushka' (meaning grandmother in Russian) reflects the strain's comforting, nurturing effects and its connection to the White Russian lineage, offering users a sense of warmth and relaxation reminiscent of grandmotherly care.
