This landrace Hindu Kush strain originates in Pakistan's Tirah Valley, a sub-tropical highland region producing very good hash. Hindu Kush plants are robust and hardy, displaying very good resistance to a range of plant pests and diseases while also being easy to grow.

This is an indica strain growing 180 - 220 cm. seeds_plant_height=seeds_plant_height=Tall. A few seeds_plant_height=seeds_plant_height=Taller phenos have narrow leaves but most will display more Afghanica traits. Hindu Kush will also perform well in temperate highland areas in various parts of the world. Most variants show various shades of green. Plants require only a moderate supply of nutrients.

These plants have a dense and bushy structure with good side-branch development and with very closely-spaced nodes bearing flowers with dense calyx production. Flowering is relatively fast at 7 - 9 weeks, and harvests in northern latitudes will be due throughout September until early October. Each plant should be able to produce 350 - 1000 gr. with very well-developed primary clusters. This is an excellent strain from which to make hashish.

Hindu Kush's scent includes South Asian spices, citrus peel (orange, lemon) with some fuel notes. The taste is spicy, orange peel and with the sweetness of over-ripe bananas and cookies. The effect is soaring with a weightless / floating sensation that leads to relaxation with induced hunger followed by relaxation and increased appetite.
