Sweet Mendo Kush

Sweet Mendo Kush is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 15-21% on average, with 0.7% CBD. Seeds come in feminized form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Sweet Mendo Kush high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. The handoff between head and body is seamless, making it easy to dose for either a productive afternoon or a slow evening. These combined effects make Sweet Mendo Kush a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

On the palate, expect earthy and sweet 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 compact rounded vivid green nugs with warm amber tones, rust-colored hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

For growers, Sweet Mendo Kush offers a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them — expect plants flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks, at home 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 Mendo family — see Mendo Macaron and Mendo Manzana for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
