What is the Mango Kush strain?
Mango Kush is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and banana and citrus flavor profile.
Mango Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from the careful crossbreeding of Mango and Hindu Kush varieties. Originally developed in the 1960s and refined in 1991 by crossing KC 33 with an Afghani strain, this strain typically exhibits a 65% indica to 35% sativa genetic composition. The strain gained prominence along the West Coast of the United States before spreading to legal markets across various states including Arizona and Michigan. Mango Kush is renowned for its distinctive tropical aroma reminiscent of ripe mangoes, complemented by subtle hints of banana, pine, and earthy Kush undertones. The buds are characteristically dense and chunky, displaying vibrant green hues with bright orange pistils and a generous coating of crystalline trichomes. The plant typically grows to a compact height of 4-5 feet, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Its robust genetics and balanced effects have made it a favorite among both recreational users seeking tropical flavors and medical patients looking for therapeutic benefits. The strain's unique terpene profile, dominated by myrcene, contributes significantly to both its aromatic qualities and its relaxing effects.

How do you grow Mango Kush?
Mango Kush is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, making it suitable for both novice and experienced growers. The flowering period ranges from 9-11 weeks (63-77 days), with plants reaching an average height of 4-5 feet. Indoor cultivation yields approximately 450-500 grams per square meter when grown in Sea of Green setups. The strain thrives in warm, tropical-like climates with temperatures between 70-80°F (21-27°C) during the day and slightly cooler nights. Humidity should be maintained at around 60% during vegetative growth and reduced to 40-50% during flowering to prevent mold and mildew. The plant responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST), and benefits from nutrient-rich, well-draining soil with a pH between 6.0-6.5 for soil grows or 5.5-6.0 for hydroponic systems. Support may be needed for heavy buds to prevent branch breakage. Full-spectrum LED lights are recommended for indoor cultivation to maximize terpene production.
