Narkush is a pure indica F1 Kush strain resulting from the crossing of two different plants from the Hindu Kush mountains which border Pakistan and Afghanistan. This region is considered to be one of the ""homes"" of cannabis indica. Although it can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors it does have a susceptibility to mould spores and therefore a close eye and good air circulation is needed during the flowering phase and indoors some filtration is also recommended due to its smell. Its compact columnar structure makes this a good choice for Sea of Green (SoG) set-ups.

Narkush grows very broad, dark green leaves as befits its pure indica genetic heritage. When grown in good conditions resin glands will develop all over the plant including the shade leaves and even stems. Like many indica strains it can produce plenty of high quality resin for hash-making. It was named Narkush to reflect the fact that it has a very heavy, narcotic effect that makes it very useful to help combat insomnia with its very heavy body-stone effect that enables complete relaxation.
