How to grow Big Kush

50% indica - 50% sativa
Big Kush — Dinafem Seeds

Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Big Skunk crossed with OG Kush, a straightforward pairing of two well-proven lines rather than anything more elaborate. A solid Indica at 20% THC, dependable rather than flashy — the sort of strain that does the job without needing to announce it.

Growing Big Kush: what to expect

Feminized photoperiod seed: every plant a female, and flowering starts when you change the lights — which puts the calendar in your hands. The photoperiod lesson covers using that control well.

Flowering runs the standard 8 weeks — no surprises, which in this business is a compliment. The flowering stage guide covers what each of those weeks should look like.

She wants to be a tree — 300 cm and climbing if you let her. Give her the headroom or teach her manners early: training techniques are not optional here.

The yield is, in plain terms, heavy — 600 g/m² when she's looked after. Branches will need support before they need sympathy; see supporting heavy colas.

Breeder figures put THC around 20% — firmly in the strong band. The number speaks for itself; we'll not add adjectives to it.
