'''Kush''' refers to a family of [[cannabis]] strains, belonging to the genus [[Cannabis indica|C. indica]], that originated in the [[Hindu Kush]] region of the Himalayan Mountains. It has been heavily domesticated and interbred since its discovery by Western society, thus none can be sure of its exact ancestry. Due to its indica genetics, kush grows into a short, thick plant, with one main cola (as opposed to [[Cannabis sativa|sativa]] strains, which usually produce multiple stalks). Kush is widely revered by cannabis users for its pungent aroma, pleasant taste, and high [[THC]] content.
