The breeder behind Serious Seeds, Simon, is responsible for the material sold by the seed bank. He studied biology at one of the universities in Amsterdam and was always a non smoker. (Tabacco, and therefore also marihuana because in Holland it is common practice to mix the latter with tabacco and roll a joint.) He only discovered the merits of smoking pure marihuana after his study while travelling through Africa in 1986. From that moment on he started collecting seeds. Back in Holland he immediately started growing those seeds out for personal pleasure crossing what he thought were the best plants seemed a natural follow up. Contacts with other growers gave him access to different plants from which he also selected the best ones. The genetic background of this material was not always clear.Simon taught biology at a highschool when Alan Dronkers asked him to come and work at Sensi Seeds. It was quite a carreer change to do that but he never felt sorry about it. After some time working for Sensi he left and started a seed company with some American pot refugees. That year (1994) the AK-47 as well as the Chronoc won prices at the American Cannabis Cup festival in Amsterdam. That first seed company with the Americanshowever fell apart soon, and in 1995 Serious Seeds was grounded. It has always been a Serious policy to have the products grown from the different seeds available to try out in some of the best coffeeshops in Amsterdam. The "Greenhouse" is one of those coffeeshops which carries Serious' products to smoke from the start in 1995 to this date. Greenhouse coffeeshop won a Cannabis Cup in 1995 with the Kalimist grown by Serious Seeds. In 1996 another famous Amsterdam coffeeshop the "Dampkring" won the Overall Cup at that years Cannabis Cup with the newest Serious strain White Russian. Another serious shop from the early days is the Blue Bird and recently also the Dread Rock, they really sell what is listed instead of anything under an often asked for name.Serious has always been a small company, and prefers to stay like that.
Its finally here: the serious version of the legendary OG-Kush! We have taken our world famous White Russian and crossed it with an original clone of OG-Kush originating from the US. The new cross has the supreme dankness of the OG-Kush with the extreme amount of crystals of the White Russian. We managed to increase the yield of the OG-Kush substantially, the Serious Kush grows big dense buds covered in trichomes and fills up totally along the branches that receive enough light. The aroma is very strong and typically 'kushy'. This variety has that unique kush-flavor, which is so delicious that it lets you crave for more even when you just had a hit. The potency of Serious Kush is very strong and she has a strong sedating effect (=couchlock effect), which is ideal for chronic pain patients and patients with problems falling asleep. She is also ideal for relaxing and playing video-games. A customer who has grown this strain from our retail seeds won the FIRST award for Serious Kush: 3rd place in the category Indica/Grower at the IC420 Cup 2016 in Amsterdam.Type: F1-hybrid, mostly IndicaRecommended veg. time seedlings: ~4-5 weeksIndoor flowering time: 56 - 63 daysIndoor yield: 400 - 500 gr/m2Outdoor/Greenhouse harvest time: Early to mid of October
