How to grow Burmese Kush
Taste
Seb's take
Sharp citrus — lemon, grapefruit and pine — over an earthy, pungent base, from a genuine Burmese landrace crossed with OG Kush. Compact at 100cm and finishing in nine weeks, she is forgiving of enthusiasm, and the high is relaxed, happy, focused and hungry in fairly equal parts.
Where it comes from
T.H. Seeds crossed a genuine Burmese landrace with the legendary OG Kush to arrive at Burmese Kush — a fast-flowering, sativa-leaning hybrid with a sharp citrus signature. The record is warm about the pairing, calling it not only a pleasant strain to consume but one of the more enjoyable to grow, which is high praise from a breeder. The Burmese lands the exotic character; the OG Kush the resin and the structure. A well-balanced meeting of the old and the celebrated.
Nose & flavour
A very sharp citrus aroma leads — lemon and grapefruit over an earthy, pungent base with a pine note running through. The OG Kush lends the pungency and the resin; the Burmese the brightness. It is a clean, zesty profile grounded by the earth beneath, the citrus doing most of the talking. Sharp and appetising, and carried on large, dense, resin-covered flowers.
The high
A pleasant, relaxing experience — happy, focused and uplifted, with a returning hunger and a comfortable body ease alongside. The record describes it as relaxing above all, but the focused, uplifted notes keep it functional rather than heavy. Well-rounded, agreeable company that settles you without pinning you down, suited to most hours of the day.
Growing it
Compact for a sativa-leaner at a stated 100cm, which the record says makes her fantastic for indoor cultivation, and quick with it — flowering in around 9 weeks, given here as 63 days. She has an excellent tolerance to stress, which makes her forgiving of enthusiasm and a fair choice for a beginner. Yields run a solid 400 g/m², with potency at 13.75% THC. Honest about what it is on strength, and genuinely rewarding to grow, by the breeder's own account.
