Folks please excuse my long hiatus. I had pressing matters to take care of. I have some info straight from Myles on the Lemon Cough syrup which is now called Nigerian Kush. NK was in the latest Skunk mag in the milf section. Things are on the up and up at Cali Gold expect some killer strains in the next year. Here is the info from Myles:
1. Strain Name: NIGERIAN KUSH
2. Breeder: CALI GOLD GENETICS
3. Height: 5-6 FT
4. Weight (yield): HEAVY FOR A KUSH
5. Flowering time in days: INDOORS 80-85 days OUTDOORS 110 +
6. Sativa/Indica/Ruderalis/etc. ratio: 70/30 sativa dominant
7. The NIGERIAN KUSH breeding project began in 2008 as a cross between our old school Landrace Nigerian sativa father and the now world famous SFV OG Kush cut. After nearly four years of breed work, the project is finally ready for release in 2012. The flavor of the Nigerian Kush is reminiscent of both parents integrating the best of both the SFV OG Kush together with the exotic sweet cedar wood flavor of the Nigerian that remains timeless. Outdoors it stays fairly compact like the OG yet produces tons of branches, all with very tight internodal spacing making it a very productive Hybrid. The buds grow with the density of the OG, yet stack in with the same structure as the Nigerian. The flowering time is slightly longer than the average Kush, but well worth the wait. When the lighting is flipped, the resin begins to be produced as soon as the first hairs begin to show. The resin content is unparalleled stacking numerous trichome heads upon on one trichome stalk. The resin is so abundant outdoors the buds looked they were rolled in light brown sugar. The cosmetics, flavor and unique potency in the NIGERIAN KUSH makes this strain our favorite new release
8. Taste (burned and unburned): upfront the flavor is of the SFV OG with notes of lemon, wet leather and hash, followed by notes of cedar wood rounded by a haze like note in the finish
9. Scent (burned/unburned): lemons, numerous types of wood, mostly a cedar wood like note, finger hash and a slightly hazey note
10. What the dried bud/crumbled bud looks like: Looks like a beautiful sativa dominant Kush rolled in carmel colored light brown sugar.
11. Speed of high onset: 5- 10 mins
12. Duration of high: 3- 4 hours
13. Quality/type of high: extremely strong, a very facial type of high, almost numbing, spacey and sedating
14. Medicinal qualities: Excellent for appetite stimulation, sleep disorders, and decompressing at the end of the day
15. The smoking experience is really unique with an extremely intense foggy high, it has the characteristics of what we like to call” goggle weed” because after smoking it you feel like you’re wearing a pair of goggles standing in the fog, squinting your eyes trying to see whats in front of you.
The Keylime Kush is an experimental cross of the Nigerian Kush that has not been released commercially. It's a select Nigerian Kush female crossed back to an old school original variant from the Nigerian family known by us as (number six)
This particular #6 male was selected because of its offensively sour citrus aroma. The smell surpassed lemons and went into the relm of a sweet yet tart keylime odor. The keylime Kush is currently being tested to determine if it's suitable for further breed work, only limited batches have been released
