Afghan Kush is about simplicity done well: earth, wood, and spice with a pine edge that feels traditional and steady. There is also a musky warmth in the background, plus a soft sweetness that rounds out the finish once the flowers have cured.

Hindu Kush mountain landrace indica genetics keep the line firmly grounded at 100% Indica. With this strain your sessions will bringa calm, soothing tone that feels best when the plan is to unwind rather than stay busy.

The flowering schedule is quick for this set, about 6 to 8 weeks, which makes it a practical choice when you want a faster turnaround without sacrificing aroma depth. Indoors, height can vary from 60 to 140 cm depending on veg time and training, so it can fit both compact and moderate rooms. Outdoors, it commonly reaches 180 to 220 cm, and that larger frame can carry serious flower weight with the right support. Yield potential is generous: up to about 500 gr/m² indoors, and up to about 800 gr/plant outdoors.

Afghan Kush tends to stay consistent through cure, with the earthy pine foundation remaining the headline rather than shifting into sweetness. It earns its place as a classic, old-school option, ideal for growers who want a calm, heavy-leaning experience and a straightforward schedule that is easy to repeat.

Afghan Kush FAQ

Afghan Kush is best known for its classic Kush lineage, compact growth, and dense, resin-forward flowers that develop strong aroma intensity as harvest approaches.

Afghan Kush typically grows with a short-to-medium height, tight internodes, and a sturdy, bushy frame that supports heavy flower development without needing excessive staking.

Indoors, Afghan Kush is commonly considered a relatively quick finisher, with many growers planning for a shorter flowering window compared to more elongated, haze-leaning cultivars.

Yes, Afghan Kush often fits well in smaller tents or cabinets because it tends to stay compact and responds predictably to canopy management when you keep the plant evenly trained.

Afghan Kush can become noticeably aromatic in mid-to-late flower, often leaning toward earthy, spice, and classic “hashy” notes, so odor control is worth planning for.

After a proper dry and cure, Afghan Kush is often described with deep earthy character, warm spice, and a rich, resinous finish that feels old-school rather than fruity or candy-like.

Afghan Kush is often viewed as approachable for newer growers because the plant structure is usually manageable, and it tends to be forgiving as long as basics like light, airflow, and watering are consistent.

Afghan Kush is usually a modest stretcher compared with taller, more vigorous sativa-leaning types, which makes it easier to predict height once you switch to flowering lighting.

Yield depends on light intensity, container size, and canopy control, but Afghan Kush is often capable of solid, dense harvests when the plant is kept healthy and evenly lit.

We do offer a germination guarantee, and you can review the full details in our policy HERE.

Afghan Kush is often favored in drier, warmer conditions where humidity is lower, since dense flowers can be more sensitive to prolonged moisture late in the season.

Afghan Kush generally responds well to gentle low-stress training and topping, especially early in veg, helping you create a flatter canopy and more consistent flower sites.

Instead of relying on a calendar alone, watch for swollen calyxes, slowed new pistil growth, and a mature aroma profile, then use your preferred trichome-check method to time harvest.

Yes, Afghan Kush is offered in fully feminized form so you can expect flower-only plants under normal growing conditions.

Afghan Kush is a go-to for growers chasing that traditional Kush character: robust plant form, dense flowers, and an aroma profile that feels timeless and unmistakably resin-driven.

Feminized seeds are bred to produce flower-only plants under normal growing conditions, so you can focus on canopy building and flower production without planning for male removal.

While feminized seeds are designed to greatly reduce male expression, stress can sometimes trigger unwanted traits in many cultivars, so stable conditions and good genetics still matter.

Typically no, because feminized plants are expected to develop as flower-producing plants, but it is still smart to monitor for odd early signs if the plant has experienced stress.

Yes, if you find a plant you love, you can take clones during veg and keep a consistent run, provided your environment supports healthy rooting and steady recovery.

Afghan Kush can perform well in soil or coco, and the best choice is the one you can manage consistently, since stable moisture and airflow tend to matter more than the medium itself.

Hemp seeds are legal in the US provided they contain less than 0.3% THC, as specified by the 2018 Farm Bill. However, it is your responsibility to research and comply with local laws and regulations before ordering.
