My second time consuming this strain tonight. This is bye far my favourite strain so far! I have RRMS and this instantly relaxes my entire body! It also gives my just enough of a head stone to help get to sleep.
Although this is a pure Indica, it rarely acts like one. Granted you do get some decent body relaxation, but the party seems to be more in the attic than in the basement. Heavy eyes are the norm but it rarely ends up that you're as high as you look, as this strain seems to want to focus its attention more on thought and creativity rather than nappy-jammy time. This is a great strain for anyone wanting to have a relaxing evening with friends and loved ones. It allows that much desired full body release of tension and stress while keeping your mind blissfully awake and coherent. For more experienced users, you can still get the full mind numbing Indica effects by introducing a little more to the bowl, but if that is the effect you're after, you're money would probably be better spent elsewhere. It's flavor is decent but nothing much to write home about, typical pine/lemon taste that is more accentuated when vaped rather than smoked. On the medicinal side of the house I found that it works decently well on anxiety and stress and it does an O.K job on the pain management front, so I personally would not buy this strain for those symptoms as there are much better strains out there for that. ( OG Kush, Girl Scout Cookies, LA confidential, to name a few.)
All said and done I think it's a great strain for everyday use as it is great at providing relief for body tension while keeping you fairly clear headed and functional.
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
A good choice to help get you to sleep. It's pretty strong, but the effects wear off pretty quickly. So if you're using it for insomnia, be prepared to medicate multiple times. Don't worry, a little goes a long way: if you wake back up, medicate again, and you'll be asleep once again in no time.
I picked some of this stuff and the buds were enormous, this weed is smooth and great tasting, it's an Indica that I believe has Sativa bloodlines. It made me just chillax and enjoy my day with plenty of energy so I didn't get couchlocked. But just like any good weed, I like to switch things up, because I get used to the buzz, and it's always good to throw your mind a curveball. Just saying.
Got some PK to alleviate my arthritis pain. Worked like a charm. So relaxed , and the monologue in my head went silent too. It was just the best feeling.
I'm reviewing this from the perspective of someone with anxiety and panic disorder and asthma which can augment my anxiety several fold!
I'm incredibly sensitive to panic when i get a racy strain, so for me finding that balance is everything. I've had to quit smoking in the past because of this and it SUCKS, especially when you know certain strains do the opposite. They ease anxiety so very well! Not having access to medicinal strains in the past, has been hard on me. I'm so happy the laws have changed!
I also suffer with arthritis and Costochondritis. It's also worth mentioning that i took a long tolerance break before getting my hands on this strain, an unintended one which can cause some serious anxiety when getting back into the swing of things.
The first puff, 4-5 minutes later i felt the worry that i might have a bad high drifting away from me like a summer breeze! Taking another puff, the effects start to go to the head, a really pleasant stoney feeling. Third rip and my entire body is relaxed, my mind is worry free and the pain in my chest and spine has all but vanished!
Take my word for it, if you have anxiety or panic disorder and you worry about strain sensitivity as i do. This stuff has you covered! Nothing sucks more than smoking something and feeling the panic set in! With this, no worries at all!
The flavor profile is okay... not my favorite i'll be honest. It's very earthy, with hints of fruit and that woody cedar after taste. It's not a harsh smoke despite what iv'e heard, idk if this was just really well flushed, the ashes are nice and white so i'm sure it was.
Smell is pleasant, very mild with an earthy grape scent to it. The flowers themselves look INCREDIBLE in the bag. Iv'e never had a purple variety before so i was quite taken a back by how dark they are. Nice and frosty, dense yet airy at the same time.
Easily 5/5 for me and i'm glad it was my first review here. ^_^
Now if you'll excuse me, my Khajiit is calling. This one has some fishing to do!
