Jade Kush

Jade Kush leans indica in Jourdan Jade’s seed line and sativa in the older flower that puts a skunky squeeze of lemon on fresh-cut pine. The two share a name, but only one comes with a family tree straight from the breeder.

Origin 1. Grow Today Genetics teamed up with Bay Area singer and model Jourdan Jade on her namesake strain. The breeder paired an Afghan Kush landrace with its own Goku SSJ4. That second parent is a cross of Runtz and Sour Mendo Bomb, putting a modern Runtz branch on old Afghan roots. This is the indica hybrid Jourdan introduced in seed form.

Origin 2. Jade OG was already circulating under the shorter name Jade by 2019. This sativa-leaner carries the woodsy, lemon-skunk character that sparked talk of OG Kush ancestry. Its original breeder and exact cross remain unknown.

The older Jade has a sharper nose than its earthy flavor might suggest. Sweet pine and lemon peel show up first, with a little spice behind them. On the draw, the pine turns woody and the skunk hangs around after the citrus fades.

Jade smokers describe a bright, clear lift with a quieter physical finish. The mood picks up while the shoulders settle, the kind of combination that leaves a little energy for the evening even after the day’s work is done.
