Kabul Express
What is the Kabul Express strain?
Kabul Express is a indica cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and fruity flavor profile.
Kabul Express is an indica-dominant cannabis strain with a fascinating backstory and strong genetic heritage. Created by Kalashnikov Seeds, this strain represents a resurrection of authentic Afghan genetics originally brought from Kabul in 1989. Over the years, the original strain had been grown across Kazakhstan, Russia, and Ukraine but lost its quality due to uncontrolled crossbreeding. Only seven seeds from the original import were preserved intact for over twenty years, and despite skepticism, all sprouted successfully. Through two years of dedicated work, breeders were able to recreate and stabilize the desired phenotype, crossing it with Kalashnikov Seeds' secret express genetics. The result is a fast-flowering indica that maintains the classic Afghan characteristics while offering quicker harvest times. Plants typically reach 90-110 cm in height and develop compact, Christmas tree-like structures with dense, resinous buds. The strain exhibits excellent resistance to pests and harsh weather conditions, making it suitable for both novice and experienced growers. Kabul Express produces thick, dark flowers that become heavily coated with trichomes, reminiscent of traditional Afghan hash plants.
