Lima Kush is a modern hybrid-indica cultivar derived from G.O.S. genetics. Engineered for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, this strain reaches maturity within a 56-day flowering period and requires a moderate level of grower expertise. It is recognized for its high production potential, consistently providing significant yields for those who successfully navigate its growth cycle.
The chemical profile of Lima Kush is defined by a complex terpene hierarchy, led by dominant concentrations of limonene, followed by caryophyllene and myrcene. The secondary and tertiary makeup includes beta-pinene, pinene, humulene, caryophyllene-oxide, linalool, guaiol, camphene, terpinolene, bisabolol, and p-cymene. This specific blend of compounds informs the sensory profile, creating a nuanced aromatic structure shaped by its primary limonene content.
As a THC-dominant variety, Lima Kush is utilized by patients seeking relief from chronic pain, stress, and sleep disturbances. Users typically report a sensory experience characterized by a state of relaxed, calm focus. The genetic influence of this cultivar persists in modern breeding, as evidenced by its notable offspring, Sour Lima OG.
