Black Tuna Kush: A Potent and Powerful Hybrid
Black Tuna Kush is a potent and powerful hybrid strain that was born and bred in British Columbia. A cross between Herojuana and Lamb’s Bread, it is named after the famous Miami-based Black Tuna Gang that smuggled marijuana from Colombia in the 70s. While it has a moderate THC content of 15%, it is definitely not a strain for beginners or low tolerance users. Its effects can be felt almost immediately, starting off with a heady euphoric high that can last for hours, and quickly turning into a sedative state. Couchlock is common, and it is also known for its pain relief and anti-inflammatory properties.

Sometimes, the strain is even packed and sealed in tuna cans, adding to its unique character!
