The first contact with the plant began in the eastern region of Asia and its domestication began almost simultaneously with that of wheat. Already from the beginning it was used as medicine, raw material or consumed for pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In more tropical areas, thanks to a warm climate and human selection in cultivation, cannabis variants developed higher levels of THC and CBD over the years. On the other hand, in harsher and more rustic climates, the marijuana plant became a key component of the cotton or linen-like clothing we know today as \"hemp\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it was not until the 20th century, in the midst of prohibition, that modern cannabis breeding was born. The main reason was to grow the plant in its most psychoactive form in climates where it would not normally have grown. The introduction of \"indica\" genetics, with a short flowering time and smaller size than \"sativas\", brought about an exponential increase in the variety of genetics. If you want to know a little more about how these two strains differ, we recommend you <a href=\"https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/en\/sativa-vs-indica\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this article.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is how this practice ended up in what we know today, with genetics that are better adapted to a specific climate or that are able to grow indoors with artificial light.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:22px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/49601138_2104478112945623_1040079004220414928_n-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"buds of different colors\" class=\"wp-image-2496\" width=\"634\" height=\"422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/49601138_2104478112945623_1040079004220414928_n-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/49601138_2104478112945623_1040079004220414928_n-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/49601138_2104478112945623_1040079004220414928_n-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/49601138_2104478112945623_1040079004220414928_n-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/49601138_2104478112945623_1040079004220414928_n-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/49601138_2104478112945623_1040079004220414928_n.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 634px) 100vw, 634px\" \/><figcaption><sub><em>Form<\/em>and colors.

New genetics are constantly being developed worldwide, just stop by our club. <a href=\"https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/en\/en-bcn-kush-youll-feel-as-at-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Barcelona Kush<\/a> to see a sample of the great diversity we have reached. Among the thousands and thousands of cannabis strains out there, we think a few select families are worth mentioning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Kush<\/strong>We obviously could not fail to mention the family that gives our club its name. These strains come from varieties native to Afghanistan, northern Pakistan and northwest India. As time went by, it reached the West, largely thanks to traveling hippie groups, something very common in the 60s. From this family we can mention some hybrid varieties which are very famous nowadays, like \"OG Kush\" or \"Bubble Kush\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Haze:<\/strong> Just mentioning some varieties like \"Silver Haze\", \"Amnesia\", \"1024\" or \"Chocolate Haze\" we realize the popularity of this family. With a powerful cerebral and energetic effect, it is very sought after and easy to find in any social club. Although it is not known precisely where it originated, we know that it was the Haze brothers (growers from Santa Cruz, California) who popularized this family through experimentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Variedades_en_BCN_Kush\"><\/span><strong>Varieties in BCN Kush<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether <a href=\"https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/en\/pros-and-cons-of-cannabis-without-smoking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">with or without tobacco<\/a>indica or sativa, weed or hash, we are sure that in <a href=\"https:\/\/barcelonakush.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BCN Kush<\/a> you will find what you are looking for.
