Bushmaster
What is the Bushmaster strain?
Bushmaster is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and pine flavor profile.
Bushmaster is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Dutch Passion, a prominent Dutch seed bank. The strain was created by crossing two legendary parent strains: Super Skunk and an undisclosed Afghani indica. This genetic combination results in a plant that exhibits characteristics of both its indica and sativa heritage, though it typically leans slightly toward the indica side in its effects. The strain's name references its vigorous growth pattern and ability to produce substantial yields, particularly when grown outdoors or in large indoor spaces.
Visually, Bushmaster plants are characterized by their dense, resinous buds that often display a deep green coloration with occasional purple hues, especially when exposed to cooler temperatures during the flowering phase. The buds are typically covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The leaves are broad and dark green, consistent with its indica lineage. The strain flowers relatively quickly for a hybrid, usually within 7-9 weeks when grown indoors.
Bushmaster is noted for its balanced effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation. The aroma profile combines earthy, skunky notes from its Super Skunk parent with sweet, hash-like undertones from its Afghani ancestry. While not as widely available as some commercial strains, Bushmaster maintains a reputation among cultivators for its resilience and productivity, particularly in outdoor growing environments where it can reach impressive heights.

Bushmaster is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of 7-9 weeks indoors and is typically ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. Plants can yield generously, especially outdoors where they may produce 500-600 grams per plant or more.
