Perfect pain and night time meds with a great taste. Bin Laden wouldn't have been such a prick if he would have smoked this great mix of powerhouse indicas from that region of the world.

100% Indica. Purply undertones remind me slightly of GDP. Buds are extra frosty with hues of purple, pink and light green. The high itself is fucking stony as all hell. I do not recommend smoking this strain and walking around. Legs felt like spaghetti and it had me dropping shit. Smoke it and take a seat because Purple Kush'll rail you with no lube.

I smoked a huge joint full of this strain in the early morning, so I can't say much for its reputation as an insomnia solution, but it did put me in something of a lazy state. Purple K has an incredibly long lasting high. About an hour after that first joint, I was ready to smoke a big bowl of its hash, which kept me high nearly all day.

Let me just start by saying, I don't know if it was just the way the grower grew it or if the strain itself is really just this powerful. Or maybe it's just the fact that it was one of my first times with mary jane. Whatever it was, this has been one of the strongest strains I've tried and one of my all times favorite. Unfortunately however, I always have a hard time finding anyone who carries this strain. lol the first time I tried it, I was so stoned that I actually tried taking the fish sticks I was baking out of the oven with my bare hands! OUCH! Never made that mistake again. That being said, this is a wonderfully euphoric strain that REALLY helps my anxiety and insomnia! And I'm sure it would help anybody with chronic pain! Just my 2 cents for ya. :)

I've had Purple Kush many times before. What a lot of people do not understand, is that Purple Kush, is not always purple. I've had nugs that were very very purple, but i've also had batches that didn't have any purple at all. Sometimes the bud will come out dark green. The bud itself is very good for insomnia, and treating pain. I feel it gives a long lasting relaxing high. It smells very skunky, and dank, rather than fruity

Three of us shared half of a short cone of some NorCal Purple Kush... #1 - A steady stone for the first 45 minutes with a nice relaxed plateau. Definitely an indica effect for me. Hard to remember the task at hand... #2 - Feels more heady and mellow...naturally euphoric....glazy eyes #3 - Glassy eyed, very relaxing...sedative...light sense of euphoria...head kinda numb and body highly relaxed.

got a 5g batch of this from LP: Tilray. Its got a very pungent smell, similar to that of some kind of grape flavoured gum and Kush mixed together. The taste is identical to the smell described. This sample was 11.3%THC, however for such shockingly low thc, and priced at only 8$/G, this sexy purple lady had a bang for your buck! quite seriously one of the best examples of purple kush ive ever had. ive had purple kush over 75+ Times. in all seriousness. some with THC Counts as high as 24%, yet and still, this Purple Kush Example stacks up. it was cured to freakin' perfection, with a perctly dry texture on the outside, and a nice sticky icky texture on the inside. covered in PURPLE chunks of bud. Excellent smoke. Good for bed-Time and eating. in LARGE DOSES, can be good for pain. -Mr.Medi

Leafly has left out the list of the different versions of the widely popular pk. The 3 versions are SR-71 pk, the most commonly available where I am (toronto, Las Vegas Purple Kush, and Garberville Purple Kush. The SR-71 cut is thought to be a very similar to Purple Urkle (possibly a hybrid) and has more of the typical "purple"/hashy grape flavor — it was passed most commonly by the SR-71 (now Blue Sky) Coffeeshop in the "Oaksterdam" section of Oakland, CA and may be Purple Afghani x Hindu Kush.  The Garberville Purple Kush is most notably held by Swerve of Cali Connection Seeds fame and tends to grow with some foxtails and has more of a straight-up Kush taste/smell with hints of the "purple".  Kyle Kushman's Las Vegas Purple Kush was claimed in a New Yorker article to be a special Purple Indica x Northern Lights find, but many have since claimed it's an S1 Bubba Kush of some kind due to the dark flavors present.  And finally, many old-school people claim that none of the famous clone-only PK's around are in fact the original Purple Kush, which is said to be a very special Purple Pakistani variety that was found in the late 70's or early 80's. The original cuts of GPK are shrouded in folklore, so there are several different phenotypes around. Although there are many companies and breeders selling the various types of pk in seed form, all 3 are supposed to be clone-only.
