Also known as: Throwback OG, Throwback OG Kush
What is the Throwback Kush strain?
Throwback Kush is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Throwback Kush is an indica-dominant cannabis strain bred by Exotic Genetix. It is a combination of an old-school OG Kush mother from the 1990s and a Green Ribbon BX (backcross) father. This bud gets its name from its classic effects and its OG Kush parent that is famously from the 90s. The strain follows a 70/30 indica-dominant genetic ratio and can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with plants needing a flowering time of approximately 56-63 days.
These buds have large lumpy spade-shaped dark olive green nugs with dark purple leaves, amber hairs, and a frosty thick coating of crystal clear trichomes. Like its OG Kush parent, this bud has a classic flavor of earthy woody citrus with a skunky pine aftertaste that intensifies upon exhale. The aroma is of sharp citrus with a pungent earthy smell that can be detected as the nugs are broken apart and smoked. The resulting hybrid creates a mix of citrus flavors with a sharp, pungent note that is reminiscent of Pinesol and gives way to relaxing indica effects that are balanced by a dash of uplifting sativa energy.
