Humboldt Seed Organisation
Dready Kush is an all-indica strain with strong roots in
cannabis meccas both east and west. The genetics come from
the Hindu Kush region, the traditional center of cannabis
culture and home to the archetypal cannabis indica. Located in
the UK, the Humboldt Seed Organisation has been gathering
seed stock to create a library of high quality connoisseur
cannabis. This includes the strains used in the Dready Kush
cross, which have never been commercially available before.
This company utilizes the work of many master European
breeders. Dready Kush is the work of Humboldt’s accomplished
in-house breeder, Dready Bob, best known for his work in
Weed World magazine.
Dready Kush is a short squat plant with dark waxy green
leaves that are jagged and thick. Although it can be bushy as
are many indicas, the side branching is not significant, and it
prefers to form a main stem. Sea of green systems work well.
This plant does best with a medium to high EC, between 1.6
and 2.0. When forced at 12 inches (30 cm), the plants are about
16 inches (40cm) at finish and yield 4–5 ounces per plant on
average. To reach maximum potential, run-to-waste systems
suit this strain best.
Dready Kush flowers do not make many pistils, but the
calyxes become very big near the end of flowering. This strain
has strong resistance to bud rot and holds up well in a wide
range of situations, although it obviously likes its comfort zone.
At finish, this plant is picture-perfect, healthy, and vigorous
with well-shaped, compact, and pungent buds. The strong smell
translates to an amazing sweet earthy hash-haze flavor.
The Dready Kush buzz is definitely a downer, and takes hold
fast. A few hits wipe the short-term memory, making it a good
interruption for an unproductive train of thought, but less than
ideal for tasks such as reading that require a level of focus to
be maintained. When used by the uninitiated or smoked in big
doses, this strain can induce paranoia or cause a zone out on
the couch. This stone can be dreamy or mind numbing; either
way, it tends to create some serious downtime in your day or
evening, and encourages sleep. Oils made from Dready Kush
are very good for medical applications that call for super-duty
indica effects.
