Master Kush Marijuana Description:

Originally called "High Rise," Master Kush originates in south Amsterdam, where it became an instant hit (no pun intended) in cannabis "coffee shops."

This strain is hardy and vigorous, thriving in most conditions and doing especially well indoors and in greenhouse settings. It's medium-sized, compact, dense plant with spiky forest-green leaves and ball-shaped buds with long orange hairs. It has little scent while growing.

The flavor of Master Kush is definitely a Kush derivative, with citrusy and earthy notes, as well as hints of pine and spice. It's a smooth smoke, and the taste and scent are fairly similar, and it provides an all-over buzz that can lead to couch-lock.

It's highly potent, and is an excellent choice for most medical treatment, but is especially beneficial for pain relief and appetite enhancement.

Just got my hands on a bunch of master kush and I must say these dense round nuggets are covered in crystals and I'm stoned after 1 large rip. it presents such a nice body high and mentally it was very relaxing. Deffenatly an end of the day bud smoking too much at once literally knocks me out.

I stand in awe of Master Kush. After ten minutes my body tingles with waves of relaxation running the length of the arms and legs. The lips even tingle. The mind stays 80% clear as the deep relaxation destroys stress and fear. After one hour the body wants to sleep and what a sleep it is. Insomnia is defenseless against this magnificent kush. Five stars without a doubt. This is the greatest of great.

I don't know what some of you think you're smoking, but if you don't give the Master Kush 5 in every category then you're NOT smoking Master Kush. It is by far the best I've ever smoked hands down...

Again there is my little friend the kush and oh what a friend to have. They don't call this MASTER kush for no reason. It is really strong and totally wipes my nutty butt right out for a very enjoyable night.

Master Kush is so delicious and fragrant. I always love all the Kushes, but Master seems to have a little something extra. Maybe its a little spiciness that takes it to the next level. Grab it when you can, you won't be disappointed.

Master is another great heavy strain, just love that earthy taste especially with some iced coffee. The buds and calyxes can get so swollen and can also turn purple when temp is kept low or at least colder closer to the end of flowering (my Master OG came out purple! yum)

Woke up to an early treat one morning, spent the rest of the day on the couch with the major munchies and no pain. As the old song goes this day was great with a little help from my friends.

Master Kush had a few of my friends in an uproar to the point where they felt they had to tell me about it as they smoked it for the first time. I finally got around to trying it and it definitely lived up to the hype. Master Kush is what an indica should be all about. The high from this bud is heavy and engulfs your body with intense THC effects. Couch Lock will occur because the potency of this strain is strong. The crash will definitely make you sleepy so don't medicate with this kush unless you have more than enough time to recover.

This is one of the top sellers at a lot of the Southern California dispensaries I've been to. I have tried it many times from different locations and have always been impressed with the awesome flavor and aroma in the bag and while smoking. A very powerful Indica with interesting looking nugs that often smell of earthy pine. It can really help you get a good night sleep and can also give you a big appetite. This is a top pick when I'm not sure of new things on a menu.

I usually am more impressed with the taste/look/smell of Master Kush rather than the actual high I get. For me, Master Kush is the typical indica high, a functioning relaxant. There is, however, a very nice pine aroma that comes from Master Kush which I love. The look of Master Kush nugs can be breathtaking, although usually small, they tend to be purple shaded and crystal coated. Its a good relaxant high, but I mostly smoke Master Kush for its taste/aroma.

The Masterkush nugs I saw were not impressive in the least – small, medium-density, and a drab, dull mossy color. It wasn’t bright green at all, it had some crystals but it looked more like dank outdoor from five years ago. It was placed in a pipe and smoked - the smoke was greasy, a bit harsh, and expansive. A few minutes later the crushing stone of Masterkush washed over me. Masterkush is incredibly potent and powerful herb, I felt like I was obliterated by wave after wave of tingling THC effects. If I’m not already sleeping by the time the stone wears off, I will be once the crash settles in.

I would grab Masterkush if I was in serious pain, or have crippling anxiety and need to loosen up before bedtime. I wouldn’t be able to do anything else after a Masterkush dose.

Mellow/Relaxed. This is definitely something to use after a workout or a busy day. One of the few strains I have smoked that really gets me laughing over nothing. Awesome!It did a good job helping relieve my muscle tightness and whatever little stress we all normally feel

No doubt about it. Master Kush is one of the top cannabis strains. I've only had it a few times but each time the punch it packed was similar to what I would imagine a Roy Jones punch feels like. In a good way of course. The taste is slightly piney and earthy, creating a smooth hit with slight spice upon exhale. It definitely has some of the longer hairs I've seen on a bud. I would love to try this godsend of a strain again soon.
