Kahuna
Also known as: Soma #9
Kahuna Strain Overview
Kahuna is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by Soma Seeds in Amsterdam through a complex 4-way cross between Super Skunk, Big Skunk Korean, Jack Herer, and Afghan Hawaiian. The name "Kahuna," which means "keeper of the secret" or "wise man" in Hawaiian culture, reflects the strain's potent effects that are believed to provide wisdom and relief to users. The strain traces its origins to the early 2000s when breeders sought to create a balanced experience that was both mentally stimulating and physically relaxing.
Physically, Kahuna produces tight, light green buds with scents of flowers and sage accented by fresh tropical fruit. The plants are medium-sized, producing few side branches and a top bud that impresses with its length and density. The strain offers sweet and fruity flavors complemented by spicy and dank overtones. The Hawaiian influence provides a tropical flavor and aromatic profile, while the Skunk genetics contribute to its potency and robust growth characteristics. The inclusion of Jack Herer adds an uplifting and clear-headed effect, making Kahuna suitable for daytime use without overwhelming sedation.

Kahuna Strain Growing Information
Kahuna has a flowering time of 9-10 weeks for indoor cultivation. The strain prefers cool, dry conditions and produces very heavy yields, with outdoor growing around late October. When proper conditions are met, yield potential is fantastic, offering harvests up to 500 grams per square meter in a standard sea of green setup. Due to the big, tight buds, humidity levels must be carefully managed for indoor gardens to prevent mold in the dense buds. While recommended for indoors where variables can be controlled, outdoor growing is possible in reliably dry climates, as rainy seasons could cause mold issues. This is considered an easy-to-grow plant that growers love for many reasons.
