Potency
Kush Mint is a hybrid strain with an evenly balanced 50/50 Indica/Sativa ratio, which represents a crossing between two legendary strains: Animal Mints and Bubba Kush. The original breeders responsible for the appearance of this cannabis are Seed Junky Genetics. Besides its appealing appearance of forest-green buds covered in numerous light trichomes, its potency is also no joke. This weed’s primary cannabinoids are THC that ranges between 22.67-25%, and CBD content of only about 0.2-0.54%. Due to pretty high THC levels and potent effects, Kush Mint weed strain may not be the best choice for novice smokers. Yet, if one has no other choice, it’s recommended to be careful with it. The terpene profile in charge of its unusual flavors consists of ocimene, humulene, nerolidol, and sabinene.
Kush Mint Strain Tastes and Flavors
After opening the bag, the toker is welcomed with a complex aroma that combines mint, sweetness, coffee, continuing with the spicy herbal, woody, and tar presence. At the same time, the taste has a more highlighted mint influence, which perfectly mixes with a sweet coffee flavor and finishes it with a spicy herbal presence in the aftertaste. To create that profile, humulene provides the flavors of tar and coffee, while ocimene gives the sweetness. Regarding its spicy herbal part, it is the result of cooperation between ocimene, humulene, and nerolidol.
Most Common Effects
As a balanced hybrid strain, Kush Mint cannabis provides quite an experience, which starts with euphoria and a slight feeling of tingles. Then, the euphoric effect lifts the mood and combines with relaxation, throwing the smoker to a strange mix of concentration and nearly narcotic-like buzz. During that time, many reviewers state that it's possible to become more talkative and even catch giggles. In the end, the weed usually induces drowsiness, and the high finishes with falling asleep. Although it doesn’t turn one into a state of a complete couch-lock, it’s easy to become sleepy with higher dosages. The most suitable time to enjoy Kush Mint strain is during the nighttime. On top of that, this hybrid stimulates hunger, so it pairs well with some tasty snacks.
