Critical Kush Seeds

Growing Tips for Critical Kush 

Critical Kush is somewhat difficult to grow and should only be taken on by experienced cultivators. Critical Kush marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to the climate of the Mediterranean. Critical Kush cannabis seeds grow plants with frosty buds and purple leaves. Trichomes litter the surface area of the bud sites, making them appear dusty with crystal resin. If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need to hope for consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the perfect outdoor climate without having to put up with unexpected outdoor variables. These plants grow to a medium height and can reach around 2-4.5 feet tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of under 5 feet, they don’t need as much vertical space to reach their peak. 

The ideal temperature for these plants is around 68-86 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 30-70% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but lowering the humidity every week will help this plant grow. Growing indoors will ensure that the moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are constant and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. High-stress training, Screen of Green (ScrOG), and low-stress training (LST) methods will help these plants grow the desired yields. These methods are crucial for controlling the plant’s height and the canopy. The Critical 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 Critical Kush strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 50-60 days.
• Yields: While Indoor yields are around 550 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 550 grams per plant. This strain produces hefty yields of amazing bud after a shorter flowering period.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers can plan on harvesting their yields around the beginning of October, depending on when the seeds were planted.

Critical Kush: Dank Kush Buds

The Critical Kush cannabis strain 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 limonene and myrcene are the secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant - This spicy and peppery terpene can be found in cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, and some cannabis cultivars.
• Limonene: Secondary Terpene - Commonly found in the rinds of citrus fruits, limonene gives cannabis its scent and flavor.
• Myrcene: Mother of All Terpenes - Myrcene is one of the most common terpenes in the cannabis kingdom and is known for its earthy flavor and aroma.
