Indigenous to the Hindu Kush mountains chain that stretches the border of Pakistan and Afghanistan, Hindu Kush is an original land race strain. Its seeds were brought into North America in the 1960's and 70's by a group of explorers and cannabis enthusiasts.
This strain is famous for its silver white trichomes, as well as its resin and may be one of the first strains ever used to make hash.
When enjoying Hindu Kush, expect a slowly creeping physical relaxation that leads to a mental fogginess. Your body and head will be heavy and you will sink into a contently lazy couch-lock with a splash of psychedelic effects. Hindu Kush is definitely meant for night-time use.

Hindu Kush Growing Tips
Hindu Kush can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though outdoors is notably the more difficult route.
When growing indoors, be sure to give each plant plenty of space for the wide leaves to grow and expand laterally. When growing outdoors, it is important to hand-trim the low ranging branches for optimal air circulation. These trimmings can be saved and used a clones. Further, trim the broad fan leaves as well to optimize light penetration throughout the plant.

What are Users and Growers Saying about Hindu Kush?
"I Love this Strain It’s got A liquorice taste mixed with a pine taste and it hits your lungs really hard making you cough a lot but the buzz is so relaxing so peaceful and you’ll end up in your bed asleep for the night so in my eyes I don’t recommend smoking in the day. Straight up for the nighttime unless you’re sick then smoke it all day. I Even have a Hindu Kush plant in 7 weeks of Flowering now soon time to cut hang and dry and cure can’t wait." -
