The pure indica cannabis strain Purple Kush is known to be one of the 10 most powerful strains in the world. It exudes a sweet, earthy and sometimes woody smell and taste reminiscent of grapes. When ready to reap, its buds are dense and dark green with vibrant hues of purple laced within the leaves.
Its parents are both potent indicas: Hindu Kush and Purple Afghani. Purple Kush first blossomed in Oakland, California.
Its THC levels average at around 15-16% with some reaching as high as 28%. The high lasts about two hours and provides a powerful sedating effect that relieves pain and spasms throughout the body. It’s received plenty of positive reviews from consumers throughout the world, expressing it provides euphoric, numbing, and calming effects both in body and mind. If ingested via foods, it can last up to eight hours. Purple Kush is best consumed at nighttime.
Other than cotton mouth and dry eyes, this strain is known to induce paranoia in consumers that are not yet used to cannabis’ effects. Dizziness and headaches have also been negative side-effects if consumed improperly.
Purple Kush is versatile, being a great strain to grow either indoors or out. When cultivated, it produces dense buds and short stalks. Quality is normally ideal, whether a novice or expert grower. When ready for reaping, tints of purple within the buds become vibrant.

10/10. Best Indica around. Daytime you’ll probably get a headache. Best for at night or after work just to chill out.

5/5 awesome, not a single negative. One of a kind strain, with a one of a kind high. I’d recommend it to anyone dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, or insomnia.

The perfect high if you want a tremendous sensual experience. For me everything is enhanced. Kills depression without causing anxiety/manic symptoms (bi polar). Allows for focused work and doesn’t slow my work time productivity. Just makes it less tedious. As for the rest of the time, just makes everything shine a bit brighter, sound a bit sweeter, feel a bit more pleasurable. I could go on but you get the point.

Very relaxing strain that rids me of anxiety without rendering me too useless. I hit this and enjoyed a nature walk and, later, video games. I found it wasn’t the best strain for keeping up with TV plot lines but overall a very smooth body high that will fill you with blissful serenity.

This was recommended for bedtime. First time I smoked too much and “napped” for 7 hours. I’ve been addicted to its sedative effects using it every night. It puts me out like a light. 10/10 for insomnia.

Jeez where to start on this one! Buds were dry but extremely dense. A small nugget the size of a garden pea weighed in at 0.2g, and thought I’m just going to grind that up and see how strong this strain is. And a good job too. It didn’t need much. Earthy on the inhale and a sour fruity taste on the exhale. Literally the two flavours are totally at the opposite end of the spectrum. A very strong Indica indeed and after a few toots I started to gradually become brain locked. The flavour for me personally isn’t a favourite but still gave the five stars because I know other people will appreciate such a taste. And then the rating was also based on the high of course!

Purple Kush…Wow! I have extreme insomnia and anxiety, and my mind races non-stop. I told the budtender what I needed to treat. After talking about the different strains to choose from he recommended that I try Purple Kush. I tried it that night. After just a few hits it sent me into a state of total relaxation. I melted into the couch and felt the sleep creeping in. My head hit the pillow and I was out like a light. Even though it has a rather high THC content, I did not experience any anxiety or paranoia. It looks like Purple Kush will be the ‘go to’ for bedtime.
