Summary / Suitability

King BX3 #1 “Silver Pole” embodies the classic King architecture: upright, heavy-yielding, and drenched in resin. This historic pure Indica showcases the line’s vigor, aroma, and unmistakable fuel character.

Ideal for extractors, breeders, and connoisseurs seeking the unfiltered essence of the King genetic line, Silver Pole stands as a living link between West Coast biker-era heirlooms and today’s refined Indica icons.

Genetic Background

King BX3 #1, known as “King Silver Pole,” descends from the legendary King line, a pure Indica believed to originate from Pakistani landrace stock once safeguarded by bikers on the Pacific West Coast. The line was gifted to Charles “Reeferman” Scott, who preserved and refined it through three generations of backcrossing.

This phenotype reflects the original King structure: tall, resinous colas dusted in metallic silver frost and exuding the unmistakable musky fuel aroma that later defined Pink Kush. As a foundational genotype in Canadian cannabis history, King Silver Pole bridges old-world Pakistani Indica traits with the resin intensity that shaped a generation of modern hybrids.

Plant Characteristics

King BX3 #1 shows more vertical vigor than her Pink Pistol sister, producing a medium-height, single-pole structure with strong central cola formation. Lateral branching remains balanced, carrying thick, spear-shaped flowers coated in silver-white trichomes. The broad, dark Indica leaves create a classic look, while the slightly open structure allows better airflow and light penetration through the canopy.

Flower Characteristics

The Silver Pole name comes from her striking metallic resin coverage, which blankets every dense cola. Buds are firm and cylindrical, deep green beneath a heavy frost of trichomes. Aromas combine fuel, metallic, earthy, and musky tones, with a soft sweetness emerging through cure. Exceptional resin production makes this phenotype a favorite for hash and extraction work.

Growing Tips

Indoor: Performs best under stable environmental control with moderate nutrient levels. Early topping or mainlining encourages even cola development and consistent height. Expect low to moderate stretch during early flower (about 1.5–2× increase) before setting weight. Finishes in 75–84 days.

Outdoor: A sturdy, resilient strain well-suited to full sun and open airflow. Compact enough for containers or raised beds. Dense buds present slight botrytis risk in high humidity, but strategic pruning and canopy ventilation minimize concerns. Harvest typically falls in late autumn, rewarding growers with heavy, fuel-scented colas drenched in resin.

Effects & Potency

Silver Pole delivers a deep, physical Indica high marked by heavy body relaxation, long-lasting euphoria, and tranquil mental calm. With reported THC levels between 20 and 25%, its potency embodies the “classic knockout” Indica, ideal for unwinding or evening use. The experience channels the heritage that inspired Pink Kush, balancing nostalgia with raw strength.
