Buy Afghani Kush Indica Dominant Hybrid Weed Strain Exclusively At Aussibuds Curated Online Dispensary Australia.

An original “landrace” strain native to the mountains of Afghanistan, Afghani Kush Strain is a pure indica prized for its potency and sturdy genetics. Perfected and balanced over centuries by both natural selection and human cultivation, this vintage variety was likely brought to the west before Afghanistan banned cannabis production in 1973 under pressure from the Nixon administration. Afghani Kush Strainhas been used to breed popular child strains like Northern Lights & Blueberry, both Cannabis Cup winners. In the frenzied market for new crossbred strains, this building block strain – also known as Afghani #1 – can be harder to come by. THC content is high at 17 to 26% and the CBD level is 0.6%.

Cured Afghani Kush Strain buds are pale to medium green with a preponderance of orange hairs and a thick coating of trichomes. They should be very resinous and tacky to the touch. This is a famously pungent strain: Afghani buds have a skunky, diesel-like odour with notes of citrus. The earthy notes are intensified when buds are ground or broken open. As with many indica, smoke is harsh and thick and can hang in the back of the throat, inducing coughing.

Because it’s a pure indica, recreational users of this weed strain can expect a deep body high and general pervasive relaxation. Some users report appetite stimulation as well. Plan on nighttime consumption, either alone or with good friends, as this strain, tends towards heavy couchlock and sleepiness.

Medicinal effects flow from these same sedative properties. Afghani Kush’s mellow euphoria is useful in the treatment of anxiety and PTSD. The almost narcotic bodily effects can also be used to relieve chronic pain. Above all, this strain is prized for its ability to relieve insomnia and promote deep sleep.

Afghani’s high comes on like a wave, gradually rolling over you and easing you into a weighty calm. Mental effects are present, but slight, manifesting more as spacey contentment than as novel thinking or clear-headedness. As users peak, they may experience greater bodily awareness alongside feelings of heavy relaxation. Because this strain does less to promote activity and mobility, it can be beneficial to make sure your surroundings are soothing and familiar before consuming.

Afghani Kush Strain is a convenient indoor grow, with its short, bushy stalks ranging between 2 and 4 feet high. Plants can produce a rapid high yield – flowering typically begins around week 8, with a full harvest possible at the 4-month mark. Although the strain is endemic to a mountainous Central Asian climate, it can be grown outdoors along similar latitudes. Look for dense, conical colas as the plants mature.

Afghani Kush Strain is a classic for a reason – its heavy resin output has made it a traditional choice for the manufacture of hash. You don’t need a processed concentrate to appreciate the effects though. Enjoy Afghani for its blissful sedative properties and bask in its legacy as one of the seminal strains of modern cannabis culture.
