Master Kush Strain Review

The Master Kush strain is a classic; it was developed in the early nineties in Amsterdam.

The origins of this strain are from two parents from three different regions in the world, and those are the Hindu Kush and Skunk#1.

It was called High Rise back in the day when it was floating around coffee shops before becoming famous and winning awards.

The name High Rise is because it was created in a high-rise apartment block. Later renamed to Master Kush, the strain has come a long way since then.

Master Kush has won the Cannabis Cup back to back in 1992, 1993.

This strain has again risen in popularity with artist like Snoop Dog having is a line of marijuana strains like Snoop’s Dream.

With Master Kush and Blue Dream cross.

Master Kush is widely used for its medicinal properties and works well for chronic pain, muscle spasms, anxiety, and insomnia.

If you plan on growing this strain, you’re in for a treat, unlike other Kush strains the yield on the Master Kush is higher than normal.

This plant is better suited to be grown indoors, contrary to some Kush strains out there.

The light green buds are dense and filled with resin.

She takes her time to flower, but the wait is well worth it. I got my seeds from Seedsman.

The strain is also a parent to some strains Granddaddy Purple, Master Orange to name a couple.

When consuming Master Kush herb, it has a musty, earthy pine taste, and the effects felt throughout the body, with a more clearer head than other Kush strains around.

For some experienced smokers, can have it any time of the day.

But is recommended for evening use for most.

How to Grow Master Kush

master kush plant

Growing the Master Kush strain, the yields are more than the average Kush plant.

Although the plant is not easiest to grow, once you dial her in it’s worth it from there.

This type of Kush strain grows well in all mediums, and you can use the scrog method.

When growing Master Kush outdoors it does not do well in a colder climate this is not a hearty plant.

It is much better grown indoors for the full benefits.

If growing outdoors look to harvest at the end of October hopefully before the first frost in the northern Hemisphere.

When growing in the southern hemisphere late April.

The Master Kush flowering period is a little longer than some going from nine to eleven weeks to mature with nice resinous buds.

That are sticky to the touch.
