Holy Grail Kush: Real Deal or Bullshit Hype

It's honestly just a decent Kush. Nothing too special in my opinion. Not bad, but nothing that I would grow for myself. The aroma was nice, kind of woody or musty, like an old barn covered in moss. The bag appeal is good but aesthetically it leaves something to be desired over more frosty white strains. I only grow and smoke Indicas for myself, though, so I might be biased. If I want a head high, I want a soaring head high, and the stuff I smoked was just middling. Then again, I find OG Kush #18 to be the most overrated cannabis on the planet, so take that for what you will. If you like OG Kush you'll probably like this a lot more, I would suspect.
OG 18 overrated, c'mon buddy. I have read hundreds up smoke reports and ur the first to call the 18 overrated. Damn if the 18 is overrated then I would love to see and smoke a strain u would call underrated. I would probably be hospitalized even though I'm a super stoner big time.

Honestly, I think it's just a fad, just because Wiz Khalifa says its his favorite smoke, everyone all of a sudden thinks it's the best weed in the world. To me, there's nothing remarkable about the flavor or the aroma to make me want to smoke godly amounts of it. Like I said, it's decent/good, but not amazing. Some of this might have to do with the market being flooded with mediocre OG Kush made by growers in their mom's house closets. Give me some nice frosty BC Blueberry or Hawaiian Haze over that any day, something with some more intricacy or structure to the flavor. OG 18 has always just seemed like it's very straightforward and not complex enough for me. It's the same tangy-woody flavor on the uptake, on the tongue, in the nose, and coming out. The one good thing that I think it excels at is anorexia, it's always made me ravenous, and also good for pain relief. OG 18 is the kind of thing I would smoke when I was at the end of a party to come down on, but not an every day kind of thing.

I'm biased towards God Bud, because when I light up, I like to get complete annihilated, and as I say, I prefer Indica. The 18% THC of your average OG 18 doesn't stack up to a high end God Bud's 25-28%. I just feel like it's like having the choice between a cheese pizza and a pepperoni pizza that are the same price. Why not go for the one that has the extra stuff (pepperoni) on top?

Have any of you guys grown the chocolope kush (kosher kush x chocolope) or sweet god (god bud x seet tooth)?

Have some sweet god going right now. Had some trouble with her but she's back on track now. She smells incredibly nice and she puts on some big time weight! Don't feed to much though, she does not have an appetite like god bud!

You must be smoking shit samples of the 18 then, because that shit is not tangy or woody, nor is it weak or overrated. The BC strains you're comparing it to don't even come close. Try again.

I grew it this year and it turned out incredible! Beautiful taste, large dank frosty buds and a great heady high with some couch lock that lasts for 3-4 hours. If you aren't happy with this strain them you don't know what you're doing.

Who is wiz khalifa?



Edit: Ahh, looked it up, rap artist. Signed a warner brother's album in 2007.

Yeah...if a strain is good, it'll get grown and be praised by many, regardless of what some rapper says...

If he rhymed about a strain that was actually overrated or weak, we would all know it was weak after actually growing it first hand, and then we would mention it.

None of this "I think it's overrated because of some song"...nah, we only want first hand experience please.

I am on my second run with Chocolope Kush. The plant is pretty stretchy definitely Sativa dom. Slightly more finicky than my other strains, going to take a few runs to dial her in. Its most prominent smell though is og which I enjoy. Probably from the Og chocoloate thai from chocolope and the Og in the kosher kush. The taste is one of the tastiest strains I have grown in the 4 years I have been doing this. The buds wreak as well. I Highly recommend if you're looking for a sativa dom hybrid! A perfect all day smoke.

ive got three growin right now out of my pack of six that i ordered everything is on day 62 of flower some pretty dank buds, their is a nice variation between the og18, and kosher, the kosher pheno is lookin really nice and has more of a subtle sweetness to it, very nice i love that smell, a really good explanation of kosher kush is that it is like someone wanted to breed a really dank og but without the lemon and the cooling menthol effect you can get from some og's, instead that kosher is like some really daaannk sugary, vanilla, really nice backround og flavors that are brought to the top of the smoke and you taste those backround flavors throughout the whole hit, its really nice, gonna have pics up tmrw or somethin

heres some finished bud pics of the holy grail kush , i ordered 2 packs of it and these were the 3 phenos from the 1st pack ive sprouted, got 4 other nice phenos at my buddies house, he'll be putting those in flower here in about 2 weeks or so, i will make sure and post a few pics. Overall these phenos were really dank and nice, with a good yield. I feel It had more of an orange peel flavor than most o.g's,. i grow in soil with master a b humboldt nutrients , have for about two years now, got that line pretty dialed in and i love it so much!! gives great flavor, and crazy resin.

Holy Grail Kush was a pleasure to grow. Mine was leaning to the og#18 phenotype. Its gonna be interesting to compare when I eventually do the karate chop of 6 kosher kushes I have in flower and a og#18 12/12.

The Kosher is a hermie prone unstable bitch of a strain! (who broke my heart recently, so maybe I'm bitter). But buyer beware on anything with her in!

Just finished vortex. Potency is OK from most phenos. Found small runt stinky pheno that was awesome. Just chopped 3 tahoes yesterday. 2 purple phenos straight funky diesel. 1 green pheno with a different kind of funk but very funky also. Purple bitches are the stinkiest I have ever grown. Hgk is up next. I got this freebie from Cali connection. Grew kinda slow so it was smaller, but completely purple no green at all. Very kush like in smell and structure. Definitley an OG. Very funky almost comparable to these tahoes. Let me tell u, this was some of the strongest pot I have ever smoked. My wife and friends agreed. 2 hits and 10 min later and ur fucking dumb. Body function totally lost. Sense of all time and reality are gone! Don't know what this shit is I just call it purple og. And yes i did clone her.

I just cut down some OG #18 today.......All hype my ass.

That strain is some BOMB kush.

With that being said, I'm starting to realize that an OG is an OG is an OG basically, other than subtle nuances. Once again though...OG #18 = A+++ flowers. Oh and the heaviest yielding kush variety I've ever grown to boot!!

I personally popped a pack and got 1 winner it looks like. 2 of em went face down in veg and are still recovering(still not sure the cause) and the other 4 are in bud at different stages. one of the 4 is the real outstanding one, it smells so amazing the hair on the back of my neck stands up and my head starts to buzz just smelling it. its very reminiscent of OG18 but not as abusive and mean. very pleasant and inviting, its just as high pitched as the OG 18 but it leaves you with a subtle blowfishy blue aroma. heres the winning girl

i got very little variation in the size and shape between the 4 in the bud room. one is a little bit bushier then her sisters but not by much. I'm growing a reserva OG seed i popped right next to the winner and luckily it seems to be a winner as well very very aggressive OG smell but i am much more excited for the HGK to come outDSC_0031.jpg
