History & Genetics

Holy Grail Kush, as the name suggests, is DNA Genetics' indica-dominant masterpiece that took the top prize in the High Times Cannabis Cup of 2011 in the Hybrid category. It is said that Holy Grail Kush, also referred to as Holy Grail OG, is the first strain to receive a perfect score in the category.

The strain inherits a thick piney and citrus aroma and taste from its father, "The OG #18". Its maternal strain is Kosher Kush which produces a myriad of effects in both mind and body that can be calming and uplifting. This strain boasts 20% THC and as much as 4% CBD.

Appearance, Aroma, & Flavor

Holy Grail Kush has a unique aroma consisting of coffee, cardamon, lemon, and lime. While it's being burned, notes of earth, wood, and pine tones also arise. The buds are bulbous, chunky, and round with orange hairs speckling their surface. It glistens with frosty trichomes.

Effects

Its effects begin with calming stress and anxiety. Holy Grail Kush may also be used to calm nausea, soothe aches, stimulate appetite, and stabilize moods. Smoke this strain when you are winding down from work and re-center your overwhelmed mind.

Growing

Simple enough even for the first-time grower, this strain requires little space but should be supported during the flowering period. Lasting around nine weeks, Holy Grail Kush likes a lot of fertilizer and can be grown indoors or outside. It does well using both the Screen of Green and Sea of Green techniques. Grown properly, this strain may produce between 500 and 650 grams per square meter.
