Hi guys,

I've smoked many kinds of Kush before. The high is nice, but I've had better and worst highs with other kinds of weed.

The thing I like the most about all kinds of Kush is that it tastes very good and it smells so damn good as well. Except that, why is it so expensive?!

As of right now, I take a lot of Northern Lights and I totally love it! Why isn't NL more expensive? And why everyone wants kush on the streets?! This makes no sense to me really... It's not so good that it should overprice by 50% all other strains selling on the market.

Anyways, tell me what you think...

Well, it the southeast a lot of times "kush" is just the catch-all name given to any high quality cannabis. For growers and more educated smokers, obviously kush is referring to the specific genetics of the strain. From an Oregon medical perspective, I have never see any kush strains here that are anymore expensive than any other good bud.

Here it cost the same as anything else. It's not as special in California... I would pay more for some catpiss. But that's just because I haven't seen it in a while!

around here anything that looks n smells decent is "kush". it comes down to dealers playing on the ignorance of their customer which allows them to call anything remotely decent, "kush" and charge a premium for it. I remember when home grown was considered to be garbage, now home grown is medical and is easily sold as the best shit in the world. so someone spread the word that kush is the bomb so now everything that isn't brink weed, gets that label.

Kush is from from the Hindu kush mountains in Afghanistan. Seeds may have been exported and grown locally. Perhaps for this reason its so expensive. Watch out for people trying to sell so called kush! Ill post a pic of my kush hybrid grow pics 004.jpg

Its a North America thing. Go to Europe everyone smokes sativas, Islands same thing. We got
alot of indoor growing here and our outdoor bud cycle is much shorter so all we can do outdoors
is hybrids autos and indicas. No true sativa can finish here. But mostly its the bag appeal,
those nice round rockhard nugs. Indoors no one wants to spend the extra time to grow
other strains, kush's bud fast and are done 8-9 weeks. Add that to the rappers and the hype
and you have the high price. Kush is an indica subclass so its just an indica, which is known
for couchlock and putting you to sleep. In Canada sometimes its hard to find anything but
kush. Also most kush strains are very small short plants with notoriously low yields. So a
grower makes a choice does he or she choose the 8 ounce hybrid to grow or 3 2.5 ounce kush's
in its place.

These new kush strains from cali coming from DNA genetics like OG #18 Holy Grail and Skywalker
are from another planet. They do not grow like a typical kush, they grow very tall with heavy yields.
