Seb's take
AK Kush crossed with an unnamed Sativa hybrid, and modern CBD genetics have nudged the effect toward the medicinal end of the ledger. The citrus aroma comes through more distinctly than in the original AK Kush, though the family resemblance is plain. Yields up to 600g/m² indoors or out.
Where it comes from
AK Kush on one side, an unnamed sativa hybrid on the other, and modern CBD genetics worked in besides, Kalashnikov keeping the second parent's particulars to themselves. The AK Kush heritage is the through-line: the record reports the citrus aroma of the original coming through, if anything more distinctly than before. An 85/15 indica lean gives it a heavily indica frame despite the sativa cross, and the express in the name is not idle, this is bred to be quick.
Nose & flavour
Citrus is the note the record commits to, and it arrives more distinctly than in the AK Kush that fathered it, a sharper, cleaner version of a familiar family aroma. No further notes are logged, so citrus it is: bright, direct, and unmistakably of the Kush line beneath. A straightforward nose that does not overpromise.
The high
The record frames the experience around its CBD genetics, which temper the 20% THC into something more measured than an 85% indica might otherwise deliver. No specific effects are listed, so I will not assign them; expect the balance the numbers imply, a strong, settling character with the CBD taking a little of the sharpness off the top. One to judge by its feel rather than any promised itinerary.
Growing it
Fast is the operative word: flowering closes in 45 to 55 days, brisk even for an indica of this build. She holds to a manageable 80 to 100cm, sitting comfortably in most rooms, and does equally well under glass or open sky. The record puts the harvest at 450 to 550g/m², and up to 600 in a well-run indoor space, which is a generous return for the short calendar. Feminized, so no males to cull. Between the speed, the size and the weight, she asks little and gives back a good deal.
