Sugar Kush is a pure indica strain made through the painstakingly precise work of Dizzy Duck Seeds. By cross-breeding three well-known strains, Kandy Kush, Hash Plant, and Northern Lights #1, they’ve given users a positive high that is both relaxing and stimulating. It has steadily become a fan favorite, and for many good reasons.

Moderate THC levels that come in around 20% guarantee this strain to be a heady high that gets pulled to the body by its 100% indica breeding. The flavors are robust and piney, with a hashy smoke and a floral skunky smell. Sugar Kush nugs are infamous for their sugary resin that glistens against its emerald green flower, indicative of its name in both appearance and palate.

The effects of this bud begin in the head, as Sugar Kush takes you for a wild ride. You’ll first notice these changes behind the eyes and in the forehead, making its way down to the shoulders and back until it finally washes over your whole body and you are completely at ease. The happy feeling that comes with the release of tension lasts throughout the high and is accompanied by an intense couch lock that isn’t easy to shake.

Because of its uplifting and happy attributes, this strain is often used to treat depression, stress, and bipolar disorder. Use caution though, because when smoked in excess it can agitate certain types of mood disorders such as PTSD or anxiety. For muscle spasms, insomnia, or chronic pain, give this strain a try and feel the sweet relief you long for as the sedative qualities take the place of your symptoms. Appetite loss, eating disorders, or digestive issues are just a few other ailments that benefit from this strain as well.

Sugar Kush has a flowering time of 8 to 9 weeks and produces a pretty decent yield for even the average home grower. This plant flourishes in both indoor and outdoor systems and is recommended for users with some experience, although you don’t have to be an expert just yet.

This is a rare strain in that it offers an intense high that is not too overwhelming for novice smokers. No matter what your experience level might be you’ll enjoy this bud. Best for use at night, try Sugar Kush with a fruity blunt wrap to enhance its already sweet flavors and enjoy as your after dinner dessert!
