Vanilla Kush is an incredible indica-dominant hybrid strain that was first bred in Amsterdam by Barney’s Farm. In 2009 Vanilla Kush grabbed the 2nd place trophy at the High Times Cannabis Cup and it has been a popular strain ever since. A mix of Afghan and Kashmir landrace strains, this tasty strain is well-known among smokers and growers alike. The plant is known for its relatively easy growing and for its aromatic smell. Buds are often tight and long with golden trichomes. The Vanilla Kush strain can be found at many Colorado dispensaries. As a true indica strain, Vanilla Kush will leave consumers relaxed and is perfect to smoke before bed. This potent strain can have a THC range of 18-20%, so it should be consumed slowly for new users. As its name suggests, this top strain has vanilla and lavender aromas. It is used by many medical marijuana patients for treating pain, nausea and stress relief. The terpene myrcene is found in Vanilla Kush, lending to its relaxing qualities.
