Manufacturer Information
Genetics & Origin of Special Kush
Special Kush goes back to classic genetics from Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. Royal Queen Seeds gives the cross as Afghani × Kush and describes the result as an old landrace Indica in a modern, low-maintenance version: traditional origins combined with modern stability. The strain is an Indica-dominant hybrid; the manufacturer does not state exact shares. The THC content is about 17 to 18%, and the CBD content is low. The plants are considered tolerant of adverse conditions and form resinous, firm flowers. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod, so flowering only begins after the light cycle is switched. If you would like to compare further Kush strains from the same breeder, you will find in our range, among others, OG Kush and Critical Kush by Royal Queen Seeds.
Who Is Special Kush For?
Special Kush is a down-to-earth Indica that asks for little. It suits:
- Beginners looking for a low-maintenance and robust strain for their first grow
- Outdoor gardeners with a warm, dry location
- Indoor growers with little room height
- Fans of classic old-school aromas with earth, spice and hashish
- Consumers who value a heavy, body-focused effect in the evening
It is less suitable for anyone looking for fruity dessert aromas or a stimulating effect for the daytime. You can find more strains of this kind under Indica strains.
Growing Special Kush: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
In the tent, Special Kush stays low at 60 to 100 cm and is ready for harvest after 7 to 8 weeks of flowering. Royal Queen Seeds states a yield of 400 to 500 g/m². According to the manufacturer, the strain works in soil just as well as in hydro systems and responds well to LST and topping; this makes it easy to shape the compact growth into an even canopy. It is described as very low-maintenance and robust, with firm, resinous flowers. With such a dense flower structure, good air circulation is worthwhile in the final weeks. The Growpedia for beginners explains the first steps from germination to harvest.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, Special Kush shows a different format: the plants reach 200 cm and more. According to Royal Queen Seeds, harvest falls at the beginning of October (Northern Hemisphere), and the yield is 500 to 550 g per plant. Warm, dry locations are ideal; at the same time, the manufacturer describes the strain as tolerant of adverse conditions. At this height, a spot sheltered from the wind and supports for heavy branches make sense. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Flavour of Special Kush
Special Kush smells spicy and earthy with a slight hashish tone; Royal Queen Seeds describes the flavour as heavy, smoky and deeply earthy – an old-school aroma for fans of classic Indicas. The manufacturer does not state a lab terpene profile. The effect is body-focused: relaxing, calming and slightly sedating. The breeder speaks of the classic “Kush Stone”, which is suited to switching off in the evening and can make you sleepy. The THC content is about 17 to 18%, and the CBD content is low. If you like the heavy body effect of old Indica lines, you will find it here in typical form. How intense the effect is depends on dose and personal tolerance.
