King’s Kush

King Kush Cannabis Strain Information

King’s Kush, also known simply as King Kush, is a potent 90% indica / 10% sativa hybrid strain born from the legendary crossing of OG Kush and Grape. Renowned for its deeply sedating effects and commanding potency—often reaching around 26% THC—this strain is a favourite among experienced cannabis users seeking powerful relief and full-body relaxation. Its reputation as a “heavy-hitter” makes it particularly suited for evening use or when rest and recovery are top priorities.

Appearance

King’s Kush typically produces medium to large, dense buds that take on a classic indica structure—thick, resin-coated, and slightly sticky to the touch. The flowers are light minty green in colour, threaded with vivid orange pistils and coated in a generous dusting of sparkling white trichomes. The elongated, grape-shaped nugs reflect their lineage and potency, offering both visual appeal and potent effects.

Aroma and Flavour

King’s Kush carries a bold, pungent aroma that blends earthy diesel with notes of overripe grapes and sweet fruit. Upon breaking apart the buds, expect an intensification of that dank, musky scent, which fills a room quickly. The flavour follows suit, offering a spicy grape profile on the inhale and a lingering, gassy diesel exhale that can induce a sharp cough even in seasoned smokers. The unique balance of fruity sweetness and skunky fuel makes for a memorable and unmistakable smoking experience.

Effects

Cannabinoid Range: approx. 26% THC

The high from King’s Kush begins with a cerebral uplift that subtly clears negative thoughts, replacing them with a dreamy, blissful haze. As the mental effects take hold, a powerful body high follows, washing over the limbs in waves and leading to a state of deep relaxation, physical heaviness, and eventual sedation. This strain is often used to help manage symptoms of chronic pain, stress, insomnia, depression, cramps, and muscle spasms. Expect couchlock, euphoria, and the kind of heavy-eyed calm that often leads to a peaceful and uninterrupted night’s sleep.
