Master Kush Strain

Master Kush Strain is one of the most commonly associated names associated with cannabis and has influenced many modern day cultivators of marijuana. Though it has many discussions on its importance to those in the cannabis culture, Master Kush Strain also has value from a historical and botanical perspective as it is thought to represent an evolution of cannabis landraces through development of stable hybrids that are used by modern growers and researchers.

The origin of Master Kush Strain comes from the region of the Hindu Kush mountains in the countries of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Northern India. Cannabis landrace strains have come from this region for many centuries. Cannabis landraces adapt to their habitat and become adapted to the variations in cold tolerance, flowering time, aroma, etc.

The belief is that Master Kush Strain is a hybrid of two cannabis landrace strains found in this region. In the 1980s, the genetics of these strains were taken to the Netherlands during the time when seed banks were collecting and preserving landrace varieties of cannabis. By combining the genetics of these two strains (landrace types) together the breeders created a hybrid with the qualities of stability, resiliency, and predictability—qualities that are considered very important for both pesticide-free cultivation and scientific research.

Master Kush – key information 🥦

Master Kush Strain is a medical cannabis strain with indica-dominant genetics, characterised by high THC content (22% or 18%) and low CBD content (1%). It is distinguished by an intense earthy aroma with citrus notes.

To obtain a prescription for medical cannabis, including the Master Kush strain, a patient must consult a specialist doctor who will assess whether cannabinoid therapy is appropriate in a particular case. Master Kush is particularly valued for its analgesic, relaxing and calming properties, making it a popular choice for the treatment of chronic pain, insomnia, and anxiety disorders.

What makes Master Kush Strain stand out is its deeply relaxing effect on both body and mind. It is a potent indica dating back to the 1990s. Master Kush is a hybrid of Hindu Kush and Skunk – this combination was created by the Dutch company White Label Seed Company. Its profound relaxation is not accompanied by a dulling effect on the mind.

How Master Kush works

It is important to be aware of potential interactions between other medicines and medical cannabis, so you should always consult your doctor before starting treatment.
