Afghan Kush

Overview:

Afghan Kush's roots trace back to the Hindu Kush mountain range near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. There its genotype has been perfected over centuries, making it the ultimate source for hash such as charas and the sticky black Afghani hash. White Label Seed Company, a Sensi Seeds partner from the Netherlands, made the seeds of this strain available for everyone to grow. The buds of Afghan Kush develop into massive, blunt-topped nuggets full of resin; pure indica goodness with a heavy yield. Revered for its heavy resin content and powerfully sedating effects, Afghan Kush is a top choice for anyone looking to relax after a long day.

We wanted to determine if there was a similar trend for people who use cannabis frequently,” she says. “Cannabis and opioids share some of the same pain-relief pathways and have both been associate with increases in pain sensitivity following acute use.”

There are probably thousands of strains and mutations that the Western world have never had access to until this point. Landrace strains, the hardest to find and preserve, could run rampant in the country as the soil and topography is similar to that of Afghanistan and some countries in the Middle East. There could be a “Noah’s Ark” effect on the cannabis world as long lost and undiscovered strains could be cloned and studied in the West. What kind of medical possibilities are there for hundred of new genomes and strains?
