About Popcorn Kush

Popcorn Kush is a lesser-known, pure-Indica strain of cannabis. This strain’s original grower and its genetic history remain a mystery to this day, which likely contributes to its lack of notoriety. In fact, due to its name, most consumers are quick to confuse the strain with “popcorn nugs”, a term used to describe shake and less-than-desirable buds. This in itself is enough for most people to think “ah, bad weed, pass!” This could not be farther from the truth with Popcorn Kush. This afternoon/evening strain has a medium THC concentration that hovers around 16% in most harvests, but has been known to fluctuate a bit.

The physical characteristics of Popcorn Kush, as you could probably guess, are similar to that of a kernel of popcorn that’s been popped. They are often shaped just like a popcorn kernel, and are full of fluffy green colas and sugar leaves. In addition, thick brown pistils coat the exterior of the bud while a off-white trichomes are sprinkled along the surface of the flower. The smell of this flower is the best thing we have to help group it into a family of cannabis, as it smells incredibly strongly of berries, cheese, and fruit. The flavor is amazingly unique, as it contains prominent scents such as buttered popcorn, grapefruit, blue cheese, and even blueberries!
