Tangier Kush
Also known as: Tangiers Kush
What is the Tangier Kush strain?
Tangier Kush is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Tangier Kush is a potent indica-dominant cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its unique terpene profile and powerful relaxing effects. The strain's origins trace back to the Tangier region of Morocco, where local landrace genetics were crossed with classic Kush varieties. Breeders sought to combine the aromatic complexity of North African cannabis with the dense bud structure and resin production characteristic of Kush strains. The result is a cultivar that maintains genetic ties to traditional hash-producing varieties while offering modern cultivation characteristics.
The strain is visually distinctive, producing medium-sized plants with dense, conical buds that are heavily coated in trichomes. The flowers typically display deep green coloration with occasional purple hues that emerge under cooler temperatures. Orange pistils weave through the dense bud structure, creating a striking visual contrast. The foliage tends to be broad and dark green, characteristic of its indica heritage. Tangier Kush is particularly noted for its exceptional resin production, making it a favorite among concentrate producers and hash makers.
Notable features include its complex aromatic profile that combines earthy, spicy notes with subtle fruity undertones. The strain has gained a reputation among connoisseurs for its smooth smoke and long-lasting effects. While not as widely available as some commercial strains, Tangier Kush has maintained a dedicated following among medical and recreational users who appreciate its balanced effects and unique terpene expression. The strain's genetics have also been used in breeding programs to develop other popular cultivars.

How do you grow Tangier Kush?
Tangier Kush is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants have a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks indoors and are typically ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October. Indoor yields are moderate to high, producing around 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in suitable climates.
The strain prefers a warm, dry climate similar to its Moroccan heritage and can be sensitive to humidity and mold. Indoor cultivation is recommended for most growers, as it allows better control over environmental conditions. Plants tend to remain relatively compact, reaching heights of 90-120 cm indoors and 150-180 cm outdoors. Training techniques like topping and low-stress training can help maximize yields and improve light penetration. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold and providing adequate support for the dense, resinous buds during late flowering.
