This pure Indica seed-strain comes directly from the massive mountain range for which it is named. The Hindu Kush is the western spur of the Himalayas, covering half of Afghanistan and straddling the borders of Pakistan and India, reaching almost to China. This desolate and beautiful region forms an important trade-route between the Middle East, central Asia and the Far East and the ancient cannabis traditions of the surrounding cultures have met and merged here over centuries. Put simply, the Hindu Kush is the absolute centre of the world when considering true Indica or Afghanica genotypes and the various forms of black hashish produced from them.
This cultivar has been selected for quality and stability over countless generations, always breeding within its own gene pool. Hindu Kush produces very consistent seedlings and is an excellent variety for uniform indoor crops grown straight from seed. Plants are dark green, squat and powerful with classic, broad-bladed Indica leaves. In warmer climates, below about 42°N, Hindu Kush can flourish outdoors.
Flowering is strong and reliable, producing fast harvests of thick Afghani buds even in the hands of a novice grower. Hindu Kush has a subtle scent of sandalwood tinged with the sweet aroma of fresh charas. Potency is remarkably high for a non-hybrid strain, with the mellow, positive body vibration possessed by the famous high-altitude Indicas. Hindu Kush also imparts a calm, contemplative mental state, instead of the brain-numbing stone of later Indica, Afghanica and Skunk hybrids.
Why is the Hindu Kush strain resilient?
The Hindu Kush variety, born in the harsh Afghan-Pakistani highlands, is highly robust. It's naturally resistant to temperature variations and pests, making it a reportedly reliable alternative for producers in different regions as it thrived in its harsh homeland.
What are IBL cannabis strain pros and cons?
To accurately produce IBL strains, special legal growing conditions and attention are said to be required. Those that are dedicated enough are said to be able to yield cannabis with unrivalled effects, flavour, and strength.
How are sandalwood-scented cannabis strains related to ancient practices?
Certain cannabis strains smell like sandalwood, suggesting their usage in ancient rites, especially in Eastern cultures. Such smells are reportedly deeply important in spiritual practices.
How do pure Indica strains' effects differ from other cannabis varieties?
Pure Indica strains are said to be like sinking into a soft, plush couch: the effects are mostly physical and provide a deep sense of relaxation that's reportedly excellent for evening or bedtime. Indicas' tranquil sensations come from their classic "body high".
Are regular seeds a good sustainable choice?
Regular seeds are wonderful because they can produce a cycle of male and female plants that can be passed down through the generations without the need to constantly buy fresh seeds.
