Snow Mountain
Also known as: Snow Cap x Pure Kush x Uzbekistani
What is the Snow Mountain strain?
Snow Mountain is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 26.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and hash flavor profile.
Snow Mountain is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (approximately 80% indica/20% sativa) created by Snow High Seeds through a unique three-way cross combining Snowcap, Pure Kush, and a rare Uzbekistani landrace strain. This impressive genetic lineage produces a strain that modern Kush enthusiasts particularly appreciate for its heavy resin production and potent effects. The strain was developed to combine the impressive trichome production and large yielding characteristics of Snowcap with the modern Kush qualities of Pure Kush, while incorporating hardy genetics from the rare Uzbekistani line that originates from a more northerly latitude than Afghanistan.
Visually, Snow Mountain lives up to its name with dense, spade-shaped buds completely coated in a thick, frosty layer of vibrant white crystal trichomes that create an almost snowy appearance. The buds exhibit a rich forest green hue with deep purple undertones, while bright orange pistils weave throughout, contrasting beautifully against the heavy trichome coverage. This exceptional resin production not only creates stunning visual appeal but also indicates the strain's high potency and makes it particularly coveted by hash makers.
