Mind-Expanding Mango Marijuana

 

Bud Basics

Some things just go together. Peanut Butter and Jelly. Bacon and Maple Syrup… Cheese and Banana? Okay, maybe not that one - but that doesn’t make it any less true, and one of those surprising and unusual combinations happens to be mango and marijuana. More than one cannabis connoisseur has noted that mango makes the high better and last longer - so mango-flavored weed can’t possibly be anything but a good thing. Enter Mango Kush Feminized.

 

Though this weed’s exact ancestry is unclear, most would agree that she’s a combination of Mango and the famous Hindu Kush strains, which you can gather from the name if nothing else.

 

Drawing on the fruity mango-banana flavor of one parent and the opiate-like body high of the other, this is a strain for the senses. Delighting the taste buds with fruity tropical flavors is only the beginning, as her high will enhance every other sense too - brightening vision, increasing sensitivity and boosting sound alongside a euphoric and a blissful cerebral high.

 

Since Mango Kush is so effective at calming the mind and increasing your levels of positivity, she’s a potent strain for relieving anxiety, stress and depression as well as an excellent pain reliever. Lucky for cultivators, she’s relatively simple to manage, too.

 

Growing this Indica-dominant weed is simpler with feminized seeds (reducing the risk of males in your crops), which is already easy to cultivate with just a little pruning, temperature and humidity control. You’ll be pleased to hear her yields are hefty too, and in a favorable environment - either indoors or out - you’ll be bagging up this fragrant beauty and building your own stash in no time.

Flavor and Fragrance of Mango Kush Feminized

You don’t name a strain Mango Kush unless it tastes of mango, so of course the most noticeable notes when you break open these buds are those of mango, with subtle hints of banana and earth to underpin the sweet freshness.

 

For those with a more refined palate, you may pick up on notes of pine, incense and hashish as the smoke coats your tongue, and it’s hard not to keep taking tokes when the weed is this delicious.

Effects

Indica-heavy, the calming high provided by Mango Kush Fem is great as an evening or nighttime strain, uplifting your frame of mind to a cerebral euphoria. This mindset will hone your senses, brightening colors, increasing your tactile sensitivity, and enhancing sounds and tastes.

 

This increased awareness can work wonders to make the most boring and mundane of tasks seem suddenly interesting and inviting, and some tokers have reported this is great ganja to smoke when watching movies, as you’ll feel pulled into the scenes. Many have made mention of the extreme giggles that a few tokes of this pot provides, so comedy movies might be a good choice.

 

Low to moderate amounts of Mango Kush will calm the body into a state of relaxation without inducing lethargy - but overdo it and you’ll find yourself locked to the couch, fully vegging out until you’re pulled under into sleep.

 

As with all strains, heavy doses of cannabis aren’t a great idea for those with low THC tolerance, and though this weed isn’t the most potent available, that doesn’t mean adverse effects are off the cards. Cottonmouth and dry, bloodshot eyes are a common side effect, but headaches, dizziness and heightened paranoia are a possibility too.

Medical Uses of Mango Kush Feminized

Though Mango Kush Feminized is more well-loved for her recreational effects, her uplifting and positive high can be used to great therapeutic benefit by the medical marijuana (MMJ) community by inducing an upbeat state of mind.

 

By reducing and removing negative and intrusive thoughts, sufferers of anxiety, stress, depression, PTSD and bipolar disorder can find great relief in this weed.

 

Since the body calm ushered in by this stuff is effective as a muscle relaxant, and the herb also boasts analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties, she can be utilized as a pain reliever for a variety of ailments - most commonly prescribed for easing headaches, migraines, joint pain such as arthritis and spasticity, in addition to her sedating benefits, which can be excellent for insomnia.

 

Since this marijuana has antiemetic (anti-vomiting) properties, it can be a useful tool for the treatment and reduction of nausea and vomiting, as well as encouraging appetite. This combination makes this an excellent strain for those struggling with eating disorders, AIDS, and those undergoing chemotherapy treatment.

Growing Mango Kush Feminized Seeds

Though Mango Kush is famously tasty, her aroma is amazing too, and whether you choose to grow her indoors or out, you’ll be greeted with her wonderful fragrance each time you tend to your crops. Add to that the sheer beauty of this luscious lady’s wide-fingered, ochre fan leaves and fluffy green foliage, and you know before you grow - this ganja's gonna have bag appeal in spades.

 

Growing no taller than 150 centimeters, Mango Kush Feminized is a straightforward strain to grow.

 

Since she’s bushy and Indica-leaning, she should be treated primarily as any other Indica strain: take care to prune and trim her, keep her warm (21 to 26°C ideally) and ensure Relative Humidity (RH) levels remain between 40% and 50%. This should keep her airflow and light penetration optimal, and with the right amount of nutrients and not too much (or too little) watering, she’ll flourish with relative ease.

 

Indoors, we’d recommend cultivators try a Sea of Green (SoG) setup to increase yield. Growing Mango Kush Fem in hydroponics will result in explosive growth, but since she’s well-known for her flavor profile, you could also try boosting her terps (terpenes) by using organic soil.

 

Either way, she’ll flower for around 8 to 9 weeks, and will produce around 400 grams of nugs per square meter.

 

If you’d rather grow this fragrant female outdoors, she’ll thrive best in the likes of Southern Europe or California, and can be harvested around mid to late October for a hefty yield of 500 grams per plant.

Summary

Mango Kush Feminized is exactly what it says on the tin - fruity, tropical mango-banana flavors and mind-bending, psychedelic sensory enhancement in her highs that are long-lasting and enjoyable as hell to ride out.

 

Since her THC isn’t too high, she’s an ideal strain for beginners who are new to the cannabis community - either as tokers or as growers - as very little experience is required to successfully grow these all-fem seeds to maturity.

 

Capable of easing pain both physical and mental alongside her fruity fragrance and uplifting euphoric high, the only real downside to this strain is that you’re guaranteed to run out fast - but with a hefty yield that’s fully grown in 9 weeks, there’s no reason not to cultivate your own crops and restock as soon as possible.
