Sugar Kush Strain Overview
Sugar Kush is an indica-dominant strain developed by Dizzy Duck Seeds in the Netherlands, representing a carefully crafted genetic combination of Kandy Kush, Hash Plant, and Northern Lights #1. This pure indica strain (100% indica) has established itself as a prominent medical cannabis variety recognized for its therapeutic properties and potent sedative effects. The strain gained international recognition with a third-place finish at the 2015 High Life Cup, demonstrating its superior quality and breeding excellence. Sugar Kush produces dense, resin-rich buds with emerald green coloration, purple undertones, and a thick coating of frosty white crystal trichomes that sparkle like sugar - hence its name. The strain features small rounded dark olive green nugs with thin orange hairs and an impressive resinous appearance that hints at its high potency. This variety has become particularly valued among medical cannabis patients for its strong, long-lasting relief properties and its ability to provide deep relaxation without overwhelming psychoactive effects.

Sugar Kush Strain Growing Information
Sugar Kush has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks (approximately 63 days) and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Indoor yields range from 400-500 grams per square meter using SOG (Sea of Green) methods. The strain exhibits characteristic indica growth patterns with compact stature and dense, resin-rich bud production. Optimal indoor growing conditions include temperatures of 70-80°F (21-27°C) during day with slightly cooler nights, humidity levels of 40-50% during vegetative stage reducing to 30-40% during flowering. The strain responds well to training techniques like LST (low-stress training) and topping. Outdoor cultivation requires warm, sunny climates with low humidity and good soil preparation. Plants typically reach heights of 5-8 feet outdoors and are considered moderately difficult to grow, requiring some experience but not expert-level knowledge. Available only as feminized seeds from Dizzy Duck Seeds.
