Zultan
Also known as: Zultan Kush, Sultan Z
Zultan Strain Overview
Zultan is a predominantly indica cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its potent effects and distinctive flavor profile. While its exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding records, it is generally believed to be a cross between classic indica genetics, potentially involving Afghan Kush or other landrace indica varieties. The strain emerged in the early 2010s and has maintained a consistent presence in certain cannabis markets, particularly among enthusiasts seeking deeply relaxing effects. Zultan is not considered a mainstream commercial strain but has developed a dedicated following in specific regions and among home growers who appreciate its reliable indica characteristics.
The plant typically displays classic indica morphology with a compact, bushy structure and dense, resinous buds. The flowers are often dark green with occasional purple hues that can become more pronounced when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange pistils provide visual contrast. The strain's aroma is one of its defining features, combining earthy, hash-like notes with subtle sweet undertones that become more apparent when the buds are broken apart.
Zultan is known for producing particularly heavy, sedating effects that many users describe as deeply physical in nature. The strain's potency and effect profile have made it a favorite among those seeking relief from various discomforts or assistance with sleep. While not as widely documented as some commercial strains, Zultan has maintained its reputation through consistent grower reports and user experiences that emphasize its powerful indica qualities. The strain's relative rarity in commercial markets means that most available information comes from grower communities rather than large-scale laboratory testing.

Zultan Strain Growing Information
Zultan is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter indoors or 500-600 grams per plant outdoors with optimal conditions. The plants prefer a warm, dry climate with good airflow to prevent mold in the dense buds. Indoor cultivation is recommended for most growers as it allows better environmental control. Zultan plants remain relatively short, usually reaching 90-120 cm indoors and 150-180 cm outdoors. Special considerations include monitoring humidity levels during flowering to prevent bud rot and providing adequate support for the heavy, dense colas. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields.
