Original Royal Kush

Original Royal Kush is a sativa dominant hybrid (60% sativa/40% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This infamous bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 13-19% on average, with 0.3% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

Users describe the Original Royal Kush high as an immediate uplifting cerebral rush that sharpens focus and sets off waves of creative energy, keeping you motivated and sociable without weighing down the body. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. Because of these effects, Original Royal Kush is often chosen for managing mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

On the palate, expect earthy up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. Each exhale leaves a earthy-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has chunky popcorn-shaped vivid green nugs with warm amber tones, rust-colored hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

In the garden, Original Royal Kush is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Original family — see Original Herer and Original Herer Autoflowering for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
