This same name is used for a cross of Vashon Kush and , bred by Farmer Fly. Sugar Shack has a mellow lemon pine scent and an earthy citrus flavor profile.

Users say that Sugar Shack provides a smooth indica high that relaxes the body while a slight energetic buzz lifts the mind. Moderate THC levels make Sugar Shack a good starting point for new indica users, though extended use can quickly lead to couch lock and sleepiness. Cloud-shaped Sugar Shack buds are somewhat loose, allowing ample space for a dense coat of light blue sticky crystal trichomes.
