Gold Rush

Gold Rush is the name of several strains, including a pure sativa bred by Southern Star Seeds from a cross of Nanan-Bouclou and Mullumbimby Madness. Growers favor this variety for its generous yields, while fan reports indicate an uplifting and energetic high that won’t accidentally knock you off your balance or trip up your schedule.

One of the more widespread varieties was created from a cross of Purple Power, Polm Gold, and Afghani, which results in a sativa-leaning hybrid popular with growers for its early flowering and robust structure. For fans, it’s beloved for its upbeat high and stunning foliage, sometimes featuring hints of purple, but usually loaded with dense clusters of orange pistils and a thick resin coat.

Happy Bird Seeds is responsible for one of the more exotic Gold Rush strains: a sativa-leaning hybrid that combines North Thunderfuck Auto with a cross of Acapulco Gold and Lowryder 2. This blend results in a strain that most fans describe as uplifting or energetic, though its mixed parentage suggests a more balanced high than other strains marketed under the name.
