From my understanding and i could be completly wrong but, originally kush was from a specific area in the middle east (hindu kush mountains) landrace perhaps? Now it seems that everyone is just throwing kush on the end of any indy dom. strains.

Real kush is bomb smoke but it seems that they want to tag kush to every strain to get more money for it.

I always hear people saying they scored some kush. People around here call anything decent kush anymore just to get a few extra bucks.

Sounds like the Dutch are about to do to Kush what they did to "skunk" (cross it time and time again 'til there's no TRUE skunk smell or taste remaining)

Hmmm....i wonder what COLOR kush seeds are? (rolls eyes)

Well no body know for sures if there's kush gen's in all the so called OG Kush strain of cali anyway.

But I noticed that in Europe there is less hype around strain than in cali untill this last year. When i go in town all i hear about its Amnesia Haze. Some of those AH don't look too real, but as long as u call it AH it will sold!

I think that GHS have good strains and that they don't need to go in the OG Kush, they could come original and leave the Kushes to Swerve and Raskal they doing it well IMVHO.

If i would get seeds from GHS it won't be their TW, Bubba or King Kush but surely Super Lemon Haze!! just my 2 cents...

My take on it:

It's become a marketing word that has gone beyond California. So you're going to see a lot of misuse of the word "kush" or "og". If you go to any of the other big grow sites and search for the word "og kush" and sort by post date, you can see when the term started proliferating in the market.

You'll have the purists and breeders, especially in CA, which will never call anything kush or og unless it has the genetics to back it up.

But, for your average mcdonald's consumer, they won't know or won't even care the origins of "kush" or the genetics of the strain they're growing. Just check any of the MMJ trade magazines with dispensary menus. A lot of them "carry" strains that i've never even heard of.

As for growers, it only makes sense for us to grow something that is in high demand. Most kush-genetic strains grow reasonably well indoors with little-to-no training involved. But again, like what happened in the 70's/80's, you see more growers leaning toward indica-phenotypes, which result in faster growth cycles and shorter plants.

I'm sure a good haze-genetic could be a good seller in the market with it's strong sativa effects, however, when you have some sativa strains growing 5-6 feet tall from 1 foot tall when you flip to 12/12, along with 10+ week flowering types, economically and practically make it a hard venture to undertake.

My 2 coppers.

The bubba, so cal masters, and af-pak are all true kushes in my opinion. They grow exactly like a true indica kush would, such as i The og is something very different, and very, very special. Either way people will always have to deal with a ton of bullshit just to get the herb that they want, such as the purple craze.

It's prolly a trend for good reason to some degree. Maybe it's just a new flavor with some potency to it. Nothing more nothing less. I can't wait to see if my Raskals OG turn out some females powerful enough to make the cut. I have learned not to expect too much and hope for the best.

As for GHSC I really need to thank Franco. He was really kind and his passion shows. It's so obvious he loves these plants. He was able to answer my questions at the same time he was working his ass off. Made me feel welcome and like he gave a crap too. He was about the only one to tell you the truth! Because of that I won't say anything bad about them. I have SLH going now and it's looking pretty good so far.

Winta. I hear about Orange Krush all the time from some guy. Is it real? How is sativa Kush different from Krush?

OG Kush was smoked and concidering High Grade Marijuana long befor he got hyped! ?

So therefor it's not a trend in first place but it became over the years with all those new OG's...The medical health centers helped a lot in the hype of the strain. If weed was ilegal in cali there will be less hype around OG Kush and other Elite, but the strain will still be a killer MJ plant, don't?
