King's Kush by Green House Seed Company


Green House Seed Co., Holland
Indica-Dominant
Genetics: OG Kush x Grape
Potency: THC 19%



Since 1985, Green House Seed Company has been flourishing in all kinds of respects. Now the most recognizable of all the Dutch Seed Companies and coffee shops  thanks to their top quality genetics. King’s Kush is no different, and is known for its productivity and intense, spicy aroma. A hybrid of Clone Only’s fantastic and game-changing strain O.G. Kush and a Grape Ape original clone, this strain leans heavily towards the Kush traits, which is great news for anyone who gets hold of its seeds. The O.G. Kush parent, which itself is a product of ChemDawg crossed with Hindu Kush / Lemon Thai, is steeped in pot lore and hype, and has become a favorite of breeders worldwide.

When transplanting your King’s Kush seedlings, ensure that the light source isn’t too high from the medium as your babies will stretch to reach the light and may collapse under their own weight before you even get started. If you avoid that, this medium-sized indica will have long branches shooting both outwards and upwards, and deep green leaves tinged with purple, thanks to the Grape genetics. As with all Purple strains, the most intense colorings come out in colder temperatures, so if you’re growing outside in a colder climate or choose to drop the temperature of your indoor grow room, you’ll be honored with a spectacular display of violet and blues. Though these plants look fairly tame in their stature, don’t be afraid to feed them like a particularly ravenous UFC fighter, as near-extreme feeding will result in enhanced flowering; you can go up to 2.3 EC in a hydro set up and 1.9 EC in a soil grow. Be sure to flush regularly to prevent excess build up in your system as this can have a negative impact on growth. The average flowering time for King’s Kush is 9 weeks, and by this time, the blue-purple veins on the plant will be going wild, giving you a grow room that looks almost magical. If you’re growing outside, aim to harvest at the end of October.

King’s Kush is definitely regal in its grape aroma, which is pungent, intense and tangy. It comes across as both sweet and sour, which makes for a nice change from the tons of sweet weed out there. As well as the grape smell, there are hints of lavender and moss, giving rise to a hard-hitting munchies-inducing high. When the need to feed subsides, you’ll slip into a very lethargic, dreamy and mildly euphoric state that’s exactly what every stoner is looking for.
