History & Genetics

Mango Kush's exact history is mostly unknown, but it likely comes from a cross between Mango, by KC Brains, and the famed Hindu Kush.

Mango Kush has a THC count of up to 16% and averages around 10-12%. For most users, this strain kicks in immediately, producing both a strong body stone and euphoria. Many also find that this strain makes them more open and talkative. Occasionally, it can cause 'the giggles,' especially with higher doses or first-time use.

Appearance, Aroma & Flavor

Mango Kush is an indica-dominant strain with strong flavors and aromas reminiscent of the tropical fruit for which it is named. It also has notes of pine and banana on the exhale. These buds typically grow in densely packed nugs, covered in a dusting of trichomes. 

Effects

Mango Kush's effects typically last for one to two hours. It is a classic 'munchies' strain, and many patients use it to calm nausea and induce appetite. This strain also causes drowsiness, usually starting halfway through the duration of its effects. Negative effects may include the usual cottonmouth, dry eyes, paranoia, dizziness, and anxiety.

It is not recommended for daytime use but can work wonders on chronic aches and pains, especially joint pain. Mango Kush relieves insomnia and may also ease headache and migraine. Patients also use it to reduce inflammation and treat stress and anxiety.

Growing

Almost never growing taller than five feet, Mango Kush grows well both indoors and out. It finishes flowering in nine to eleven weeks and often delivers a high yield of over 400 grams per square meter.
