How to grow Money Bush
Taste
Seb's take
Afghani and Critical Mass combine for an indica built for the ledger as much as the lungs — fast-finishing, disease-resistant, and generous enough to earn the name. Wood, spice and earth on the nose; the high runs sleepy, relaxed and properly medicinal. Undemanding of the grower, which is rather the point.
Where it comes from
Heavyweight Seeds crossed the potent, resilient Afghani with Critical Mass, the latter known the world over for high yields and stout resistance, and the result is a plant built for the ledger as much as the lungs. It comes out eighty per cent indica, a proper cash crop by the record's own framing, fast-finishing and generous. A feminized hybrid bred to earn its name, undemanding of the grower and productive enough to justify the acreage. The parentage tells you the whole plan.
Nose & flavour
Wood, spice and earth lead, a grounded, warming nose in keeping with the Afghani heritage. There is nothing sweet or fruity reaching for attention here; this is the darker, spicier end of the spectrum, the sort that reads as substantial. It suits the plant's whole disposition. A robust, earthy profile with a bit of pepper to it.
The high
The effect runs sleepy and relaxed, the heavy indica settling the body firmly toward rest. This is company for the end of the day, an experience that draws the shutters rather than opening them. The eighty per cent indica leaves little doubt about where the evening is headed. The sitting-down sort, and no apology for it. Best met when you have nowhere else to be.
Growing it
She finishes fast, in 49 to 56 days, or seven to eight weeks, and reaches 80 to 100cm, a manageable medium. Yields run heavy at 600 to 800 g/m², with THC noted at 21% and CBD around three per cent. She is not a picky eater and needs no special care, which lets an inexperienced grower still pull a decent return while a practised one draws out the best with minimum work. Disease and pest resistant into the bargain. A dependable, fast, generous plant that rather lives up to its name.
