Royal Kush

Hybrid

Origin

Royal Kush is Skunk #1 crossed with an Afghani landrace, bred by G13 Labs in Europe. It is a straightforward version of the classic Skunk-and-Afghani formula that produced Skunk #1 and much of the modern indica catalog. It has one descendant on file. It is also marketed as The King Among Hybrids, which is breeder language, not a measured claim.

About

Royal Kush lifts you into a dreamy euphoria before the body settles.

It is Skunk #1 crossed with an Afghani landrace, from G13 Labs, a classic Skunk-and-Afghani build. The head goes blissful and dreamy first, then a soothing physical heaviness takes over. THC readings disagree, from a low lab sample to source claims of 25.

Dreamy first, heavy after.

What to Expect

Royal Kush opens with a blissful, dreamy euphoria, then eases into a soothing, sleepy body heaviness. Leafly's reviewers lead with relaxed at 64 percent of a solid sample, with happiness and a euphoric quality both near 51 and a hunger bump at 29. The weighted data ranks the deep relaxation highest.

Dryness is moderate, about 24 percent for mouth and 20 for eyes, with dizziness and a paranoid note low. A moderate dose keeps it comfortable. It is a nighttime strain.

Flavor and Aroma

Royal Kush smells pungent and sweet with a skunky, spicy edge over earth. The flavor is earthy and spicy with a sour note. Sources say the aroma comes out best on outdoor, organically grown plants.

Terpenes Explained

Royal Kush has no measured terpene data, with Humulene, Myrcene, Caryophyllene, Pinene and Limonene all named but unquantified.

Nothing is measured, so the skunk-and-spice smell is a nose call. A Skunk-Afghani cross like this reads pungent and earthy as a rule. A jar with a genuinely sharp, skunky character is the closest match to the description.

Cannabinoids and Potency

Royal Kush THC is reported from about 23 to 25 percent by its sources, but the lab-measured sample in our data is only near 13, so the real number may be much lower. Either way sources agree the effect is potent. CBD is a trace.

Royal Kush's sources claim the mid twenties, but the one clean lab sample is mid-teens, so read the jar's test before you judge the dose.
