Vanilla Kush

Introduced to the world in 2009 the Vanilla Kush strain was carefully bred by Amsterdam breeder Barney’s Farm. The strain is the clever combination of parent strains Afghan and Kashmir. Sometimes called “Vanilla Dream” the Vanilla Kush strain of marijuana boasts sweet and smooth vanilla flavors. Some say the smell is like that of a café. The cause is the vanilla smell and taste. After all, vanilla is often used in coffees and teas. This strain causes a sense of euphoria and happiness. Uplifting your mood during the high. It also causes you to get rather tired. Leading it to also be used for treating insomnia or helping to sleep. It also relieves tension in the muscles as it has a sedative effect. The mostly Indica hybrid is perfect for unwinding after a long, stressful day. We don’t recommend this strain for wake-and-bake smoke seshs. Vanilla Kush should be set aside for the end of the evening or a day off from work or maybe even an after-dinner, dessert-like treat. It definitely has the flavor for it.

Vanilla Kush: Sweet Treat

Vanilla Kush seeds grow into a unique-looking plant with pointy, star-shaped leaves that create a canopy above the entire plant. The short plants have green and purple leaves and dense buds with trichomes covering the entire surface area. A closer inspection of the top-most buds reveals that they are coated in a sugary crystal resin as well as tons of bright white pistils. The plant looks like it has a head of white hair. The harvested nuggets are long and thick. They are green with a hint of orange from the originally white pistils. Breaking up these nuggets with your fingers is no easy feat. They are dense and dank and release that familiar aroma when broken up. In its first-ever award show, the Vanilla Kush strain, still new to the world, took home second place at the 2009 Cannabis Cup. Since then, it has won dozens of awards for its Indica dominance and sweet, tasty flavor profile. It has also won awards based on the effects it has on users. In its nearly two decades on this planet, Vanilla Kush has become a seriously popular strain in the cultivation community.

Growing Tips for Our Seeds

This sweet-tasting plant can be grown indoors or outdoors. It is ideal for outdoors because it grows quite well in dry and warm environments. Its compact size makes it good for indoors as well. Maintaining a balanced environment with plenty of light is the best means of cultivation. It is rather easy to grow Vanilla Kush because of how adaptable and sturdy this plant is. It can be grown by novice growers looking to cut their teeth on a popular strain. Because of how small the plants are they can be grown almost anywhere with little room.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions

  • Indoor or Outdoor: Vanilla Kush cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by even first-time growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit. This strain of cannabis requires 18-20 hours of light during the vegetative stage. Growers will want to switch to a 12/12 light cycle to induce flowering and make it through to harvest.
  •  Moisture control: In terms of humidity levels, you will want to maintain a relative humidity of around 40-60% throughout the vegetative stage. Keeping the humidity at around 40% through the flowering stage will help keep mold and mildew off of your plants through to harvest.
  • Training Techniques: Low-stress training (LST), Screen of Green and topping are the best methods for training these plants. Each of these methods helps increase yields and allows sunlight and air to reach the lower levels of the plant creating and even grow.

The Germination Game Plan

Before you even plant your Vanilla Kush female cannabis plants, you will first need to germinate these seeds. To do so, refer to our free germination guide, knowing that they are backed by our impressive 90% germination guarantee.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

  • Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect to harvest after a flowering period of 55-65 days. Cultivated outdoors, growers can expect Vanilla Kush cannabis to provide a rewarding harvest sometime around early October.
  • Yields: While Indoor yields are around 450 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 600 grams per plant. You couldn’t ask for better harvests for first-time growers. Vanilla Kush is low-maintenance and easy to grow and provides delicious buds full of THC when it comes time to harvest.

Dominant Terpenes in Vanilla Kush: Sweet and Creamy

The Vanilla 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 myrcene, while caryophyllene and limonene are secondary terpenes.

  • Myrcene: Most Dominant – Earthy and herbal contributing to the strain’s relaxing effects on the user. Also known as the “Mother of Terpenes”.
  • Caryophyllene: Secondary Terpene – Peppery and spicy. This terpene is found in cinnamon, cloves, and cannabis.
  • Limonene: Fruity – Found in the rinds of citrus fruits as well as cannabis limonene can help improve lung function and decrease anxiety.

Dominant Cannabinoids in Vanilla Kush:

Cannabinoids play an important role in Vanilla Kush seeds and are generally a huge part of most strains of cannabis. That happy, creative, and relaxed feeling you get when enjoying the Vanilla Kush strain is due to its dominant cannabinoids. Each cannabinoid does something different to the user.

  • THC: The Main Character – THC is the most dominant cannabinoid on the molecular level of this strain. The crystalline compound tetrahydrocannabinol is the main ingredient of cannabis. Topping out at 22%, the THC in this Indica-dominant strain is responsible for the happy and relaxed feeling you get when enjoying Vanilla Kush cannabis.
  • CBD: Very Minimal Amounts – While the CBD levels in Vanilla Kush are less than 1%, the cannabinoid is still present, and the effects are noticeable in this strain. CBD plays a smaller role in what the strain does to the user. CBD is non-psychoactive and can produce effects that help with anxiety, sleep, pain, and even stress. The CBD in the Vanilla Kush strain, even in its lower amounts, definitely has a positive effect on the user.
