Hindu Kush Growing Information
A lot of Hindu Kush reviews reveal that growers love it as it is easy to grow, and it is very economical. It can produce up to 800 grams in one square meter, using the SOG growing technique. Every Hindu Kush review starts with a “super-potent” plant! The plant’s structure is rough as the cold winds of the Hindu mountains were blowing and taking away all the moisture that could be in the canopy of the plants.
Thanks to the resistant and fantastic genetics, growing this weed is anything but hard. As Hindu Kush flowering time is under 65 days, you can be sure that you can grow it successfully outdoors, but if you prefer indoor, have at least 400 Watt lighting system. Also, make sure to have enough airflow. The moisture can be stuck inside the canopy, which can lead to the mold. Do not forget to place the plants in 40-liter pots at least, use the SOG technique and use organic fertilizers to maximize your yield.
