How to grow Money Maker
Taste
Seb's take
Original Master Kush, Hindu Kush and Skunk combine in a lineage that took first place at the 1994 High Times Cannabis Cup and never really let the title go to its head. Spice, nut and fruit on the nose; the effect is deeply physical — relaxed, hungry and euphoric, with only a gentle mental echo. Compact, bushy, and consistent across the board.
Where it comes from
Green House Seeds rooted this firmly in traditional Kush territory, crossing Original Master Kush and Hindu Kush with Skunk. It earned its reputation early, taking first place in the hydroponic category at the High Times Cannabis Cup in 1994, and has stood as a benchmark for productivity and reliability ever since without letting the title go to its head. A feminized hybrid running seventy per cent indica, with a competition record most strains would trade a decade for. The lineage is pure heritage, and it shows.
Nose & flavour
Spice, nut and fruit lead, a nose that reads as classic and warming rather than showy, the Kush heritage grounding it. The spice comes first, the nuttiness beneath, and a fruit note lifts the finish. It is a mature, well-rounded profile in keeping with the plant's pedigree. Comfortable, traditional company for the nose, nothing gimmicky about it.
The high
The effect is deeply physical, relaxed, hungry and euphoric, with only a gentle mental echo over the top. This is a body-forward experience, the seventy per cent indica and the 20.4% THC shaping something you feel more than you think. The 0.8% CBD sits alongside it. A settling, appetite-raising sort of effect that keeps the head quiet. Company for a comfortable evening in.
Growing it
Growth stays compact and bushy, with tight internodal spacing that supports heavy flower development, and she reaches roughly 140 to 170cm. Flowering takes 56 to 63 days. Yields are heavy at 763 to 793 g/m², and the record praises her consistency across environments, which is the reliability the cup win first flagged. A productive, predictable plant that performs the same way in different rooms. Standard care brings out the benchmark return that made her name three decades ago.
