Emerald City Kush
Emerald City Kush
Overview
Emerald City Kush is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing the potent Triangle Kush X Oz Kush BX1 strains. Named for its gorgeous appearance and the beloved capital city of Oz, this strain has gained popularity among cultivators and consumers for its unique characteristics and potent effects. The strain was originally developed as part of Bedford Grow's playful Wizard of Oz themed line of cannabis strains.
Emerald City Kush exhibits a deep and vivid almost-emerald green color that immediately grabs one's attention, living up to its namesake. As you pull apart each sparkling little nugget, aromas of sour, citrusy lemons and sweet fruity berries are released, intensifying with a notable spicy potency as the nugs are burned away. The flavor follows the same profile, with a spicy herbal overtone accented by sour, lemony citrus and fresh fruity berries. Some phenotypes display unique flavor profiles, with rich top notes of currant jam and red wine followed by a complex back end of cinnamon, roasted nuts, and cheese. On the palate, the warm red wine and roasted nuts flavors carried through followed by lighter hints of cinnamon and coffee on the finish.

Growing Information
Emerald City Kush is an mostly indica from Full Moon Genetics and can be cultivated indoors, outdoors and greenhouse (Where the plants will need a flowering time of ±56 days). The strain is considered suitable for intermediate to experienced growers due to its specific environmental requirements. Indoor cultivation is recommended for optimal control over growing conditions, though it can also be grown outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates with temperatures between 70-80°F (21-27°C). Plants may require support during flowering as buds can become heavy and dense. The strain responds well to training techniques such as SCROG (Screen of Green) to maximize yields. Growers should maintain proper humidity levels (40-50% during flowering) and ensure adequate airflow to prevent mold and mildew. Expected yields are moderate to high when grown under optimal conditions.
