Kush Mintz
Also known as: Kush Mints, Kush Mint
Kush Mintz Strain Overview
Kush Mintz is a modern hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing two popular strains: Animal Mints and Bubba Kush. This genetic combination brings together the potent effects of both parent strains, resulting in a well-balanced hybrid that has gained significant popularity in recent years. The strain was developed by Seed Junky Genetics, a respected breeder known for creating several award-winning varieties. Kush Mintz first gained attention in the California cannabis market before spreading to other legal markets across North America and internationally.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, chunky buds that are typically medium to large in size. The flowers display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues, complemented by a thick coating of frosty trichomes that give the buds a shimmering, crystalline appearance. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating visual contrast. The plant structure tends to be bushy with strong lateral branching, a trait inherited from its indica-dominant parentage.
Kush Mintz is particularly notable for its complex aroma and flavor profile that combines earthy, minty, and sweet notes. The name accurately reflects its sensory characteristics, with a distinct cooling mint sensation on the exhale that complements the classic kush earthiness. This strain has received recognition in various cannabis competitions and has become a favorite among both recreational users and medical patients seeking balanced effects.

Kush Mintz Strain Growing Information
Kush Mintz is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in suitable environments.
The plants prefer a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. They tend to stay relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to moisture-related issues. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with particular attention needed during the flowering phase when the plants develop their signature resin production.
