Sweet Kush
Sweet Kush
Overview
Sweet Kush is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain that blends Sweet Tooth and OG Kush genetics, typically presenting a 55% sativa / 45% indica genetic composition. The strain originates from the renowned Dutch seed banks of Amsterdam's Red Light District, created as a cross between Sweet Tooth and OG Kush with roots in Hindu Kush, Afghani, Nepalese, and Hawaiian strains, offering a rich and complex lineage. The buds are notably rock hard and soaked in resin with a crystalline sheen due to extensive trichome coverage, appearing almost moon-like with their excessive resinous coating. Sweet Kush presents a distinctive flavor profile combining honey and sweet notes with hints of earthiness, fruity undertones, and some skunkiness from its OG lineage on the exhale. Thanks to its large resin production, it serves as an ideal strain for producing high-quality extracts and concentrates. The strain was developed by Kush Cannabis Seeds through crossing Sweet Tooth (a combination of Sweet Pink Grapefruit and Blueberry) with a phenotype of OG Kush.

Growing Information
Kush Cannabis Seeds recommends reserving Sweet Kush until a cultivator has an intermediate level of experience, as the plant can be temperamental in different environments and requires pruning to allow air to navigate through its lower branches. The strain has a flowering period of 8-10 weeks indoors and reaches full maturity in 56-63 days indoors or early October when growing outside. Sweet Kush produces high yields of up to 20 ounces per plant (450g+) of sparkling, compact nugs with a medium plant height of 100-150cm. The strain can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors, including greenhouse operations. Although compact and robust with moderate growing difficulty, growers should prevent pests and use quality substrates like perlite, peat, or coco coir for optimal moisture retention.
