Adam talks about MK Ultra

MK Ultra

Where does it come from and what are the genetics?

MK Ultra is a cross between G-13, the famous American government weed, and the infamous LA plant, the OG'er Kush.

Is it a full Indica strain?

You would think that with a name like OG'er Kush that it would be a full-blown Indica, but in fact, it is a hybrid that I believe is in the 60/40 ratio, by its bud and plant structure. The G-13 is also not exactly a pure Indica, so expect some stretch, but as long as you don't over-veg, you should be fine.

Does it do better as a one budder?

The structure is quite straight, with not too much side branching. It's a good idea to cut off the bottom two or three sets of branches as they don't produce so much down below and if you want to top it, then give yourself an extra 10-14 day recovery time before you set it into 12/12.

Is it very crystally, and what are the buds shaped like?

You will be very impressed with the trichome production; MK puts on resin quite early, in the 3rd or 4th week of flowering. The buds are dense and in clusters.

Is it leafy or not, easy to trim?

Quite easy to trim, good quality trim for bubble hash.

What is the colour like?

Mixture between dark green leaves and an electric green buds.

In an area of 1 meter by 1 meter, under a 600 watt bulb, in soil, what is the approximate yield from about 5 plants?

25-50 grams per plant.

What is the smell like and taste?

Very strong in both taste and smell. Piney tones with a true Afghani bottom. Very expensive smoke, great for bongs.

What is the high like?

Quick hitting high, not such a couch-lock, but very addictive people just love it.

Why is it such a popular strain?

Every few years, people's tastes, change globally. Example: early 80's Red Hair, 90's Northern Lights, 1999-2000 Haze, and 2004 Kushy-Diesel. People for one reason or the other, seem to gravitate towards these strong distinctive flavors.

How many prizes has MK won?

Two awards so far: 1st place in the Indica Cup, 2003 High Times Cannabis Cup, and again in the 2004 High Times Cannabis Cup, in 2nd place for the Indica Cup.

Can you make good bubble hash from it?

Makes very strong bubblehash that tastes exactly like the weed, almost more like weed than hash. Not the best for long-term storage, as the resin tends to breakdown a bit if stored for long periods of time?. But that's not been a problem with this strain as we smoke it very fast.

Why is it one of your favorites?

I like weed that tastes like it smells. Some weed is a little deceiving, you think that it is going to be sweet and then it tastes dry or rough?. not good. But MK delivers both, and it shows in the reactions that people give when they try it for the first time. Wow or just a thumbs-up is all I need to know that MK did it again.

What nutrients would you give it and what is better, soil or hydro?

Nutrients are a personal thing. What are your intentions? Commercial or personal. I believe organic is the way to go for personal. But for commercial purposes, I prefer coco with Bcuzz A+B as a base. I use advanced hydroponic growth stimulators/root and enzyme stimulators combined with several sateside products; one called Hydrozyme, and another called Budswell, which is pure guano. So I lean toward Biz as much as possible.
