What is the Cryptic Kush strain?
Cryptic Kush is a indica cannabis strain, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and guava flavor profile.
Cryptic Kush is an indica-dominant cannabis strain developed by Savage Seed Collective, bred by a member known as Kryptikid. This strain features a complex lineage involving Unknown Kush (likely Hindu Kush) crossed with Black Domina in multiple generations, specifically described as ((Unknown Kush x Black Domina) x Black Domina) x (Unknown Kush x Black Domina) S3. The breeding was intentionally designed to increase the indica effects of the mysterious unknown Kush parent strain while significantly shortening the flowering period. The strain is characterized by its heavy Afghan lineage inherited from Black Domina, which contributes to its robust structure and indica-dominant effects. Cryptic Kush produces very greasy, resinous buds with a distinctive aromatic profile that sets it apart from other Kush varieties. The strain requires trellising support due to heavy yields, though less support than most Kush strains thanks to its stable Afghan genetics.
