Medevac Kush
Also known as: Medevac, Medevac OG
Medevac Kush Strain Overview
Medevac Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the West Coast cannabis breeding scene. The strain's name references its purported medical applications and its genetic connection to the OG Kush family. While its exact origins remain somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding records, it is generally accepted among cultivators that Medevac Kush was developed by crossing a potent OG Kush phenotype with another heavy indica, possibly an Afghani or Hindu Kush variety, to enhance its sedative and therapeutic properties.
The strain produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance characterized by dark green foliage often contrasted by vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are typically coated in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty, crystalline appearance. Medevac Kush is noted for its pungent aroma that combines earthy, pine, and fuel-like notes with subtle citrus undertones, a scent profile characteristic of its OG Kush heritage.
Medevac Kush has gained recognition primarily within medical cannabis communities rather than achieving widespread commercial popularity. Its reputation centers on providing strong physical relaxation and sedation, making it particularly sought after by users seeking relief from various conditions. The strain's effects are typically described as deeply calming with a noticeable body-heavy sensation that can lead to couch-lock at higher doses.

Medevac Kush Strain Growing Information
Medevac Kush is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by late September to early October outdoors. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in optimal conditions. The strain prefers a warm, dry climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity to prevent mold issues. Plants tend to remain relatively short and bushy with indica-dominant structure, making them suitable for indoor cultivation with limited vertical space. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation around the dense buds and monitoring for pests that may be attracted to the resinous flowers.
