Growing Tips for Cascadia Kush

Cascadia Kush is the perfect starter strain for first-time growers. Cascadia Kush marijuana plants will thrive both indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the grower's ability to manage the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will need to replicate a steady environment with warm temperatures and moderate humidity levels. Cascadia Kush seeds produce dark green buds with loads of resinous trichomes and brown pistils littering the exterior. If you are going to grow outdoors, you will need to maintain a consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to harvest. Doing so will ensure that you grow potent and pungent buds from the top of the plants to the bottom. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the ideal outdoor climate they require without having to contend with unexpected outdoor variables — particularly important across many Canadian regions where temperatures and weather can be unpredictable. These plants grow short and can reach around 90 centimetres in height. Because the plants reach a maximum height of approximately 90 centimetres, they are easy to plant and easy to cultivate. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 21–29 degrees Celsius. Humidity levels should be kept around 30–70% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage. Growing indoors will ensure that moderate humidity levels and warm temperatures are constant and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. High-stress training (HST) and low-stress training (LST) are the best training methods for this particular strain. Both of these methods will increase your overall yields, producing more buds than you would without training the plants. The Cascadia Kush strain requires an 18–20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative stage of growth. Changing the light cycle to a 12/12 cycle will help to induce the flowering stage of growth.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Cascadia Kush strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55–65 days.
• Yields: Indoor yields are around 250 grams per square metre, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 400 grams per plant. The smaller yields are acceptable because of how short the flowering period is and how easy these plants are to grow.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of October, depending on when the seeds were planted.

Cascadia Kush: Sweet, Fruity, and Complex

The Cascadia Kush terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while myrcene and limonene are the secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant - A spicy and peppery terpene when found in cannabis plants.
• Myrcene: Secondary Terpene - Known as "the mother of all terpenes," this monoterpene smells and tastes earthy when found in cannabis plants.
• Limonene: Citrus Fruits - Found in the rinds of citrus fruits, limonene can help with anxiety and improve lung function.
