Cataract Kush results from a deliberate cross between OG Kush and LA Confidential, presenting as a 100% indica cultivar. Developed by DNA Genetics, this strain combines its potent parentage into a compact, resin-rich plant. When properly cured, the buds reveal a grayish-black hue beneath a glittering coat of snowy crystals, a visual cue to the dense cannabinoid-packed nugs.
Its effects settle as a buoyant euphoria that gives way to deep relaxation, a body-centered calm that can endure after the initial high. With THC in the 20–24% range and notable CBD content, Cataract Kush delivers a lasting corporal effect and versatile relief. Medical users report potential benefits for pain, arthritis, chronic discomfort, sleep disorders, and nausea, as well as relief from stress, anxiety, and insomnia, with mood elevation often accompanying the physical calm.
Flavor and aroma mirror its Kush roots. The scent blends earthy, pungent notes with a floral, woody edge, accompanied by a diesel-spice undertone. On tasting, the cultivar reads LA Kush dominant with subtle OG Kush influence on the exhale, yielding citrusy and skunky spices that linger. Together these elements create a robust, resinous profile that enthusiasts associate with its lineage.
