About Triangle Kush

Triangle Kush is a revered, clone-only indica affectionately known simply as "TK." It is widely believed to originate from the 1990s Florida cannabis scene and represents one of the most important OG-family phenotypes, prized for its heavy fuel, pine, and earth aroma and a sedative yet euphoric high. Because it is clone-only, TK remains a connoisseur cultivar, but its genetic reach is enormous — it is the parent of Wedding Cake, Do-Si-Dos, and dozens of other famous strains.
