A complex strain with effects that are great any time of the day, Gypsy Kush is brought to us by Spanish breeders at Kannabia Seed Company. A slightly indica-dominant strain, this bud is a three-way cross between Black Domina, Ginger Ale, and Afghani. This plant won two first-place awards in 2016 at the LiftExpoVancouver - Best in Show and Solvent Hash.

Ideal for nearly all experience levels, Gypsy Kush averages at a solid 18% THC potency. Buds take on a classic tree shape and end up being a rich green with an immense amount of frosty trichomes. A gorgeous set of aromas and flavors await you here, with florals, pine, and spice all mingling for an experience that’s incredibly balanced and tasty.

When you want a strain that will allow you to tap into the happiest parts of your mind and body, where would you turn? Gypsy Kush is a great place to start, as the high you’ll enjoy is cheerful and light instead of heavy or stoney. Users find they are inspired to engage with those around them, and while you won’t necessarily be the life of the party, there will be an ease in your sociability. While in a euphoric headspace, you might find yourself slowly becoming more relaxed, although lethargy will be far from happening. Grab some snacks, as you may work up a bit of hunger as well.

Above all else, Gypsy Kush can be a medical patient’s best friend if they choose to consume this bud throughout the entire day. Her main focus tends to be on the cerebral side of things, so anyone dealing with depression, stress, anxiety, or even PTSD will enjoy her soothing nature. Like all good hybrids, however, she will work on pain too, although she may be more effective for generalized issues instead of chronic ailments.

Thanks to the wonderful people at Kannabia, we have a very clear idea of just how to successfully cultivate your own Gypsy Kush at home. Both indoor and outdoor setups are perfectly fine, but what’s really necessary here is a watchful eye. This strain shoots up very quickly, so it’s key that you trim accordingly and make sure you have adequate space for her to flourish. A short 7 to 8 week cycle will produce an abundance of buds just ready to be smoked.

Well-rounded strains are sometimes hard to come by in today’s complex cannabis world, but Gypsy Kush brings everything you’d want to the table. Slightly energizing and slightly sedative, it’s a great flower for the times when you need to be able to float through your day without following a rollercoaster of emotions or thoughts. Consider this bud to be a mini vacation, at least for one day.
