Hindu Kush also known as Hindi Kush
is a pure indica cannabis strain that originated in the mountain range that stretches over 500 miles (around 800 km) between Pakistan and Afghanistan. This variety has adapted to the harsh climate of its homeland and forms a thick layer of crystal trichomes to protect it.
