As its name suggests, Gold Kush Strain is a stunningly beautiful golden-hair covered cannabis strain whose value rivals the precious metal it shares its name with. Known for a super-high THC content and intense terpenes that give this bud an earthy, spicy, herbaceous quality, Gold Kush Strain is perfect for relaxing, reducing stress, and settling in for a long night of movie watching. Gold Kush Strain gives you a creative and calming high that helps your worries wash away. Though not a lot is known about this indica-leaning hybrid, Gold Kush Strain is a favorite of marijuana smokers everywhere for its potency and pleasant calming effects.
What Exactly is the Gold Kush Marijuana Strain?
There are few details about the origins of the Gold Kush Strain, with no consensus as to where this weed strain might have come from, or what its parents might have been. Gold Kush is a particularly strong marijuana strain with a THC potency ranging from 23%-28%. Indica-dominant, Gold Kush is typically a 60% indica, 40% sativa hybrid, though these ratios have frequently been found to change in this diverse and mysterious cannabis strain.Â
Besides its high THC potency, Gold Kush also contains an extraordinary number of terpenes, making this strain an especially aromatic one. Myrcene gives Gold Kush its herbal notes, B-Caryophyllene gives it its pepperiness, and Terpinolene gives Gold Kush an added soporific effect. Though the high levels of terpenes in Gold Kush are mostly responsible for adding to its fragrance, these terpenes may also possess antioxidant, sedative, or anti-inflammatory properties to help with overall health and wellness. Â
Gold Kush Strain: Appearance, Flavor, and Aroma
As its name suggests, Gold Kush’s signature color comes in the form of densely packed, light-golden hairs covering the bud. Though the bud itself may range from green to purple, the hairy golden exterior and massive trichomes give Gold Kush it’s recognizable appearance.Â
Though the aroma of Gold Kush is heavily woodsy due to a high concentration of terpenes, the taste of this premium weed variety has notes of light sweetness, citrus, candy, and spices. Pleasant to inhale and not overwhelming to the taste buds, Gold Kush gives you that classic weedy kick without blasting your tongue with flavors.Â
With one of the highest concentrations of terpenes in any cannabis strain, Gold Kush has a super-pungent aroma that can fill a room. Deep, spicy, and woodsy, the smell of Gold Kush will remind you of a walk through the forest. Investigate a little closer by bringing your nose right to the source and you might smell sweet tropical notes that hint at its mild, fruity flavor.Â
Gold Kush Strain Effects
Touted for its high THC levels, Gold Kush is a super-strong marijuana strain that won’t leave you wanting more. Just a few puffs of Gold Kush will instantly reveal a world of body sensations, from mild tingling and lightness to a reduction of tension, body pain, or discomfort.Â
After a few minutes, Gold Kush will transform slightly to include psychoactive effects along with the physical. An uplifted mood and sense of calm are common effects of Gold Kush making it a great choice after a long day, a strenuous workout, or a particularly difficult workweek. Combine Gold Kushs powerful physical effects with a bit of stress relief, and you will see why this strain has quickly become popular.Â
Medical Advantages of the Gold Kush StrainÂ
Gold Kush is commonly used by individuals experiencing muscle, joint, or other physical pain to help alleviate tension and induce a state of calm. Chronic pain, minor injuries, headaches, nausea, and other physical discomforts may be improved with the use of Gold Kush, helping your body to relax, release tightness, and rest more effectively.Â
The calming effects of Gold Kush are not only helpful for relieving physical tension but may also help cannabis consumers struggling to manage anxiety, depression, etc. Gold Kush may help consumers to manage their symptoms, helping to reduce stress, improve sleep, and even increase appetite. Some pot users with insomnia utilize Gold Kush to initiate and improve sleep quality, helping them to fall asleep and stay asleep without waking up throughout the night.Â
Gold Kush is a particularly ‘munchy’ inducing cannabis strain that some consumers find can help improve appetite, reduce nausea, and may even help with certain eating disorders. For many, the use of Gold Kush improves their sleep, appetite, general mood, outlook, and quality of life.Â
Possible Side Effects of the Gold Kush Strain
Like many marijuana strains, Gold Kush may cause a certain amount of drowsiness and is therefore not recommended for use when operating machinery or driving. With strong sedative properties, Gold Kush is best enjoyed in the evenings, on weekends, or when you are responsibility free. Some consumers have also reported dry eyes and mouth while consuming Gold Kush.Â
Final Thoughts
A stunningly beautiful cannabis strain coated in massive golden trichomes, Gold Kush is everyone’s favorite mystery weed. Though we don’t know much about the Gold Kush strain, we do know we love it and that its intense, body-forward high. Perfect for consumers looking for physical relaxation combined with a calm, happy state of mind.

I have to give this 3 stars. Lost 1 for delivery, I ordered on a sunday and received it 9 days later inc wknds and 1 because I felt it could have been trimmed a bit nicer and sold for less. But in terms of taste, its nice and has a nice high. Unfortunately, I was expecting much higher quality considering the price and probably wont order again for that reason alone. Ive found nicer quality for less elsewhere. For this quality the ounces really shouldn’t be much more than 140$ in my opinion.

Just as the name states. Gold. Nothing but props. Great smoke.
Kurama (verified owner) –
This one actually has a slight “Gold” taste to it which is pretty interesting.
Alone, it’s not bad but it mixes very nicely with Gorilla Glue #5.
Crossed them to make a Gold Gorilla “Saiyan” strain for DBS:B in theaters and I’m happy I did.

I ordered a 7g of this. It came fairly quickly and the packaging was good.
I received from a new batch so the smell is great and it’s really fresh, not dry or old.
The smell is really faint. When you smoke it, it’s really gentle on your throat ( I smoke from a bong ) there’s almost no taste it seems.
Like you would just smoke and smoke it, you know. BUT then the high hits you, it relaxes you a lot and you feel pretty good. Uplifted I would say. For me when the high comes down, it makes me sleepy a bit, so i keep this strain for the evening. When I’m high I’m just really relaxed and good, it’s the after high that makes me sleepy. BUT i still have nothing to complain about and will probably be buying more!

Ce génétique a une odeur douce au nez mais puissante quand-même. L’odeur lors de la combustion est vraiment merveilleuse.
Il creuse l’appétit assez rapidement, ce qui est le but recherché de mon côté.
Lorsque fumer en joint, il est très doux pour la gorge. On ne s’étouffe pas après une ou deux bouffées.
Bravo et ça va faire partie de ma prochaine commande c’est certain.
