Origin
Obama Kush is an Afghani landrace crossed with OG Kush, bred by Superior Genetics in Michigan. The Afghani side gives the body weight and the small, fast plant; OG Kush adds the pine and the cerebral edge. It has three descendants on file. Superior Genetics is the breeder of record for the original.

About
Obama Kush is a small Michigan indica built to relax without much fuss.
Superior Genetics crossed an Afghani landrace with OG Kush and named the result for the president. Grape and pine on the nose, a balanced body-and-head stone that most experience levels can handle.
It is an everyday relaxer.
What to Expect
Obama Kush settles you evenly. Leafly's reviewers lead with relaxed at 69 percent of a solid sample, with happy at 55 and euphoric at 49, and a mild cerebral lift runs alongside the body weight rather than before it. Sleepiness sits at 27, so it relaxes more than it knocks out.
Headache turns up more here than usual, well above dry eyes at 9, with dry mouth at 27. A moderate dose keeps the headache risk down. Not a strong daytime option.
Flavor and Aroma
Obama Kush is a sweet lemon-and-pine smell with a woody, earthy base. The flavor turns toward grape and berry over that same wood. It is sweeter and fruitier than a typical Kush.
Terpenes Explained
Obama Kush has no terpene panel in our records, with only Caryophyllene named and nothing measured.
The grape-and-pine character sits in lighter compounds a standard panel does not report. A jar that smells clearly of sweet fruit over pine is the one to pick.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Obama Kush THC is reported around 21 to 23 percent, a strong indica figure, though the single lab sample in our data is corrupted and reads far too low. CBD is a trace.
Obama Kush is stronger than its small plant and mellow name suggest, so start at a moderate dose.
