A Kush Lovers Thread

They sure are haha I won't say I'm fond of the same reused strains but SURELY there are reasons people buy one og over another OTHER than yield and there MUST be some resource to help track the different cuts. To me yield isn't nearly as important as quality, I mean, from a quality of life standpoint, less I have to inhale to get the perfect high the better for my lungs/body. I frequent a decent amount of clubs and go strain hunting for a few I'm determined to get legit versions of again (durban poison, pure kush, burmese kush, true hazes) and whenever I try ogs it's hit or miss whether it is really potent as well as tasty. I mean, if you shop top shelf it's really hard to find a BAD og, it's just finding the ones that really standout and they seem to fluctuate since so many club owners don't really seem to question strains and the names they give in relation to what it actually IS. Anyone ever smoked burmese Kush or woody kush? The woody kush I got had a real unique kush and sandalwood taste, really exquisite and the strain was so fricken potent too! The bag smell was really unique too, not alot of kush or weed smell, very odd. Any info?
My wifes lil cousin grew Woody once. I agree it is Very unique.
He grew it outdoor and he isnt the best grower, so I cant really base too much on his grow...it was his 1st grow btw lol.

I smoked weed as a kid and then quit all drugs.
I decided to smoke again to get medicinal value and reduce/eradicate all chemical drugs.
So I havent smoked anything I havent grown myself with very few exceptions.
For this reason my strain knowledge is limited.
I have grown like 20 strains though and have about 18 new ones now as well.

My Tahoe has a clean fresh scent that I cant describe as well as a lemon pledge smell. The smell really isnt super strong though like the fruity strains I have grown usually are.

The test nug is way premature and wont tell too much about the final result.


I agree yield isnt as important as other qualities.
I am flowering so many strains trying to find my select few keeper strains needed for different effects..
I need a sleep strain.
An anxiety strain
A stress reliever
A migraine reliever
And so on

Nice dude, I agree, with the right strains you really CAN replace alot of common things like aspirin, coffee, and sleep meds. What have your grown? I'm trying to hunt down among others, a kush strain that smelled EXACTLY like a 50 50 mix of kush and fruity pebbles. Really light frosted nugs, kush density, just absolutely sparkles back at you. Any chance you know it? was told might be pink kush.

Not too much Kush experience really.

The fav strains I have are Grape Krush, C99(fruit punch pheno), and Platinum OG

GK has super fruity smell and taste...in my limited experience it is the strongest in that area...nice day or night smoke tight dense buds that get colorful. Can be euphoric with high dose (8-9 wks flowering)

C99 has a candy fruit girly perfume smell while flowering, and Merlot deep red grape smell taste after 3-4 week cure.... tight nugs day and evening smoke, but not sleepy really. Can be slightly energetic and motivating at 1st. (7-9 wks)

Plat OG has I guess the typical kush/og smell sandalwood musky...idk. It has the christmas tree structure. Taste is earthy and musky smoke is thick best suited for evening (6-8 wks flowering)

I am so excited to hear you say grape krush that's dj short's yes? Question, did you get it in seed form or clone? 5 years ago when I first decided I loved Marijuana and decided to grow, GK was the first train I decided on but as more stuff was released and I researched more, I just couldn't settle and never ended up getting it. I know Hemp depot has them now though i've heard they might be different. Any picks of it? how was potency? bag appeal? anything you can add would be excellent.

For a pic look at my avatar, I can show more, but it doesnt really fit into the Kush thread lol I guess.

I got it from a clone. And yes DJ shorts' GK
I have heard about GK2 which you are referring to.
As I understand the original dad died and the same mom was crossed with another father.
I dont know which one I have. I got it as a clone about 2 yrs ago.

That's exactly what i heard too. I ALSO heard that DJ was quoted as saying he can and will recreate any and all of his stains with his resources and surviving seedpacks so APPARENTLY (just through the grapevine) he is going to be working on re-producing many of the strains. I don't suppose you're in the socal area and can direct me to the club that carries GK could you? I've found cuts in oregon and northern cali but I'm hopeful I won't have to drive that far. Though that's a whole 'nother can of worms haha if I go that far north I better also have a quality purp cut and kush cut found to make it worthwhile. Here's another question, haha again off topic but you or someone else might know, but blueberry, I once smoked some that seriously smelled like a freaking lemon I mean EXACTLY like freshly squeezed lemon and was super strong and lost lasting. tasted phenomenal too just like lemons. Does blueberry ever produce a pheno like that?

I have heard that the original GK seeds are no good anymore and upon opening by hand are black mush.
There are numerous threads about his seeds not being any good.
This is seed companies with old stock still selling them, and he stated that he cant believe they are still selling them, and several ppl got replacements from a guy (I think a grower that he works with) that had lots of viable seeds stored in a freezer or something.

I have a DJ Shorts Blueberry I just got. I havent flowered her, but I think HC might have a lemony BB.

I am in NorCal, and the club I got mine from is long gone now.

HighlandersCave, he is a member on RIU, and a way better grower than myself, like most here I think lol.
Oh hell yea I know him haha I've been a longtime lurker many a search has led to his amazing journal.
I like his stuff because he does so many different strains with so many different breeders. Really educational.

I have lots of strains as well, but not nearly the room or growing experience as him.
I think I have like 30 strains right now lol. Most are just in clone form. A few are beans from friends.

EDIT

I forgot I grew a Bubba Kush about 2 yrs ago. Back then I didnt know there were different cuts of her. I got mine at Oaksterdan.
Really nice smoke Peppery smell that cured to be danky and overly sweet. Pretty stony bud

I'm so envious of you all that have established gardens and amazing diversity of genetics, such what a great way to spend your quiet hours and recharge time. In terms of seeds, any strains/breeders you can comment on?

As Jig pointed out...beans from BB cant go wrong!!
That Dog Kush has been talked about so much by so many, that you know it isnt hype. I have some beans, but havent popped them yet for some reason....

As far as clones I have prolly grown out 30-50 different ones
*Gurple is a nice one GDPx BC God Bud
*Grape Ape is nice, but not a total indica like I thought with its electric start. the smell and taste are similar to GK, but not as strong, and mine didnt turn colors
*Mr nice was smell and tasty, but the high was kinda weird and just not for me.
*Querkle TGA Subcool is an awesome strain, at least my pheno SQ dom she was...still have like an 8th left too.
*Dream Queen (AKA Green Crack) was another nice one...not too fast paced or anything, but real mood enhancer and caused me to get excited for no reason lol.
*Mango from Oaksterdam, she smelled sooooooooooo strong that it was impossible to hide her. The smoke was really strong too.
*Hindu Skunk was nice and the high was different that I was used to since the body came 1st then the heady up high came after 30 min. Really tasty and yielded well...prone to mites in my experience though.
*SSH was a hit with fam and friends, but I am not into the strong sativas that much, but I am trying to fi9nd my way to them.

Those are some of the more memorable ones that I have flowered


Strains I have now that I havent flowered yet are
707 HB
Purple AK47
Purple Kush
Gods Gift
C99 Pineapple pheno
DJ Shorts BB
Herijuana (seed)
Stank ape(hope the seedling makes it!)
Purple Urkle
Atomic NL
BB Diesel

This isnt including beans not popped yet.

Outstanding thank you guys so much! So GK over grape ape huh? i was gonna try grape ape but I really only like purple strains that have a really strong taste (anyone else find that the lighter frosted beauties are usually better?) AND are potent, any recommendation? i was gonna do querkle for awhile but I heard that 20 percent of them hermie? truth be told if it is really a quality smoke and the good phenos express frequently I would not mind having to cull some. Also Jigfresh (anyone else too!) what can you tell me about dog kush? Whats the taste like? Is it an og or a real kush? Seeds might, yet again, be my answer if I can't find a quality local clone source with non og non bubba kush.

Also, Bass, I wish you had a journal because I'd follow along with interest. I'll be looking to hear about the purple kush!

I am too disorganized for a journal, but Ill put pics up here and the 600 when I flower her.
I try to not put pics here unless the word kush is in the mix because this is Trynas thread, and he is nice enough to allow related pics lol.
My regular name here is Bassman999, but till it gets restored I am using this profile.

The problem I have, well there are 2, but the main one is that you have no certainty that you get the genetics the label says, the other is bugs obviously. I think most problems I have had are from clones with bugs.
Being poor as I am clones are way cheaper than beans....
