Phishhead Kush Strain Overview
Phishhead Kush, named in homage to the American rock band Phish and their fanbase known as "phishheads," is an indica-dominant strain that was passed down from an older grower to the cultivators at The Clinic in Colorado. This strain is an indica-dominant hybrid (80% indica/20% sativa) created through crossing OG Kush with Lowland Afghani strains. The strain was developed by combining a landrace Indica originating from the lowlands of Afghanistan, famed for its heavy-hitting body effects and creeping head high, with OG Kush, which serves as the genetic backbone of many West Coast cannabis strains and is among the most legendary buds in the industry.
Phishhead Kush produces dense, round olive green nugs with sparse thin purple hairs and a coating of super sticky sweet resin. The buds are typically a mix of light and dark green hues, dense and fluffy in structure, with bright orange pistils and a moderate layer of white trichomes. One of The Clinic's most popular strains, it has also been used as a pollen donor for The Bank Cannabis Genetics' Phishhead Kush breeding series. Since its inception, Phishhead Kush has gained a massive following from the band's fanbase and among cannabis enthusiasts, offering impressive recreational potential with THC levels that can exceed 20%.

Phishhead Kush Strain Growing Information
Phishhead Kush has an indoor flowering period of 7 to 9 weeks, producing an average of 10 to 12 ounces of buds per square meter. When grown outdoors, it has a flowering period from the last week of September to mid-October and yields at least 12 ounces of buds per plant. The strain exhibits typical Indica characteristics with a short stature and hardy structure, fitting well in most growing spaces and rarely requiring topping, though those with limited space may shorten the vegetative period. It responds well to the Sea of Green method and produces small, popcorn-shaped buds that are dense and may be prone to mold and mildew, requiring proper pruning and ventilation. The strain can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors and was originally available as clone-only feminized seeds through The Bank Genetics.
