Cataract KushEffects & Experience
Reported effects center on euphoric, happy, relaxed. Cataract Kush pulls toward physical relaxation and a quiet, observational headspace, a profile that holds up across phenotypes when the seeds are grown to their potential.
Growing Cataract Kush
Growing Cataract Kush fits cooler climates where photoperiod strains struggle to finish before frost, autoflower timing is calendar-driven, not daylight-driven. Cataract Kush runs on an 18/6 light schedule from seed to harvest, autoflower genetics ignore photoperiod, so there is no flip and no light-cycle change. Indoor yields land around 450-550 g/m² under quality LED, and outdoor plants given full sun and 5-7 gallon containers reliably produce 500-700 g/plant. Expected plant height is 60-100 cm, with intermediate cultivation difficulty. Practical tips that move the needle: apply low-stress training in week 2 of veg, bend the main stem horizontally and tie down to expose lower nodes; and maintain canopy airflow with an oscillating fan moving air through the leaves, not just above them, to prevent powdery mildew. The most common challenge growers report is over-feeding nitrogen past week 1 of flower, switch to bloom nutrients within 7 days of seeing pistils.
