Kush refers to a subset of indica cannabis strains. The origins of Kush cannabis are local varieties of plants mainly from Afghanistan, in northern Pakistan and in northwestern India 1 with the name coming from the Hindu Kush mountain range. The "Hindu Kush" strains of cannabis were brought to the United States in the 1970s, and continue to be available there to date2.
The Kush strains were among those grown by the British firm GW Pharmaceuticals for its commercial trial authorized by the medicinal cannabis law3.
The main known kush strains are: Afghan Kush, Pakistani Kush, Af-Pak (Afghan-Pakistani Hybrid), Chemo Kush, Tuna Kush, Hindu Kush, Bannana Kush, Kush Tangerine, Chitral Kush, LA Confidential, Master Kush, Bubba Kush , Pure Kush (also known as 'Original Kush' or 'Kush'), Vanilla Kush, Purple Kush, Kush Grapefruit, Kush Lavender, Pink Kush, Pine Tar Kush, White Owl, Mango Kush, Sour Kush and Ultra Kush .
OG Kush and related varieties are not true kush, but hybrid strains (indica-sativa) descended from the Sativa ChemDawg dominant strain.
However, the most famous and most appreciated variety in the "Kush" family is undoubtedly the OG Kush, one of a kind, very powerful, productive, and medicinal with its pronounced and intense flavor of citrus, exotic wood, sustained by a strong smell of diesel fuel.
The variety OG Kush is subject to some disagreements within the cannabis community. Indeed, some call it "Ocean grow kush" and others "Original gangster kush". In addition, this cannabis strain is an interrogation for the experts as to its genetic parents. The experts agree on two of the three parents, the first being the Chemdog, the second the Lemon Thai but the third remains a mystery, experts agree that it is either an Afghan grass or a Pakistani herb, others claim it is a chemdawg cross of the 1990s.
