Head Rush

Head Rush is another truly fantastic cannabis strain from Karma Genetics and belongs to the family of the legendary Headbanger genetics. This strain has been carefully developed over many years and is based on one of the breeder’s most sought-after crosses. The original Headbanger has long been one of the best-known strains and impresses with its powerful effect and intense aroma. The genetics of Head Rush combine the best of Sour OG Kush and a selected Chem91 cut. The result is a powerful hybrid strain that blends the typical ‘Diesel’ character with sour and slightly earthy notes.

Particularly noteworthy is the complex terpene profile, which delights lovers of classic old-school strains. The scent is sour, spicy and exudes the legendary diesel aroma that so many growers love. Head Rush is also extremely easy to grow, making it ideal for beginners as it is significantly more robust than pure OG Kush or Sour Diesel. Head Rush performs best in an indoor garden, on a balcony, on a terrace or in a well-ventilated greenhouse, where the largest plants can be expected.
