Strain FAQ
What is responsible for the taste's woodsiness?
One of the most common terpenes in cannabis, myrcene, gives the woodsy profile an earthy and musky undertone. It adds complexity to the aroma's base notes.
Has Hindu Kush been an important strain?
Hindu Kush, a landrace strain, has produced legendary hybrids including OG Kush and Purple Kush. Its pure indica lineage reportedly gives its descendants sedative properties and strengthens the cannabis gene pool.
Why do IBL cannabis strains produce a stable result?
Many generations of inbreeding from a single mother plant or a closed gene pool give IBL strains genetic constancy. This careful breeding approach enables uniform phenotype expression across generations, ensuring predictable strain development, potency, and flavour.
