Description
Born from the union of Afghan and Kush, two of the most storied landrace lineages in cannabis history, Special Kush #1 from Royal Queen Seeds carries that heritage in every layer of its profile. The aroma is grounded and earthy, the kind of classic indica fragrance that signals potency before the first inhale. With THC levels spanning 16 to 24%, the effect is characteristically heavy and settling, ideal for evenings when the goal is to unwind without distraction.
For the cultivator, this feminised photoperiod variety rewards planning with impressive returns. Yields reach 450 to 750 grams per plant, figures that can transform a modest outdoor run into a serious harvest. Plants grow large, so give them room to express their structure, whether in a generous indoor space or an open garden bed. The 6 to 8 week flowering window is a genuine advantage, wrapping up faster than most indica-dominant builds without sacrificing weight or quality. If you want a dependable, high-yielding plant with deep roots in classic genetics, Special Kush #1 is a straightforward choice worth making.

about this product
Special Kush #1 brings legendary Afghan-Kush genetics, deep earthy potency, and harvests up to 750 grams per plant — everything a beginner grower needs to start strong.
It's one of the more forgiving feminised varieties in the Royal Queen Seeds range, making it a genuinely solid starting point. The feminised format removes the need to identify and remove male plants, and its resilient Afghan-Kush genetics handle minor environmental inconsistencies without drama.
Special Kush #1 flowers in just 6 to 8 weeks, which puts it among the fastest-finishing photoperiod strains available. That shorter cycle means less time managing the flowering stage and more predictable planning around your grow space.
Indoors, growers can expect 450 to 600 grams per square metre under well-managed conditions, while outdoor plants can push between 450 and 750 grams each. These are strong numbers for an easy-rated strain, and the Afghan-Kush lineage tends to produce dense, resinous buds that make the weight count.
The effect sits firmly in classic indica territory — heavy, physical, and deeply settling, with THC reaching up to 24%. Most growers describe it as a couch-lock experience best suited to evenings when winding down is the only item on the agenda.
