Island Pink Kush

Island Pink Kush

As a derivative of Pink Kush, Island Pink Kush is a potent, powerful strain. With beautiful, dense buds and bright, pastel-pink pistils popping up throughout the bud’s surface, this strain’s appearance almost resembles a tropical sunset itself! A silver dusting of trichomes covering the surface completes the ensemble. With an average THC content of 19-21%, Pink Island Kush is no walk in the park, despite its idyllic name.

While the exact percentage is still unknown, many speculate that Island Pink Kush has an 80/30 indica/sativa split. With such a strong indica heritage, Island Pink Kush is extremely effective at treating and alleviating a variety of pains and conditions. 

Island Pink Kush effects begin with a sedative wave of physical relaxation that gently washes over your body after the first inhale. Your limbs will start to get heavier and you’ll find yourself sinking deeper and deeper into your couch as couch lock slowly creeps in. As soon as you’re comfortable, this strain’s sativa lineage makes its presence known through mild cerebral stimulation. You’ll slowly feel your lips curl into a smile and despite being near sedated, you’ll feel incredibly sociable and euphoric. 

With such an incredible suite of effects, Island Pink Kush has been dubbed by many to be known as “the getaway strain” – the perfect choice when you just want to get away from it all.

Appearance, Taste And Aroma

Pink Island Kush buds feature a classic indica profile. Short, stocky, and dense, olive-green, pink-haired nug pops out and gives way to a bouquet of equally captivating and invigorating aromas.

Break open a few buds of Island Pink Kush, and the sweet smell of vanilla, flowers, and pungent skunk will immediately capture your attention. Roll it up into a joint or pack it into a bowl and you’ll taste equally sweet notes of vanilla candy contrasted against dank earth and pungent skunk. 

Pink Island Kush is thick, and we’re not just talking about the buds. This strain’s thick, voluminous smoke won’t irritate your throat but it will coat your mouth with a sweet-yet-pungent aftertaste that’ll have you coming back for puff after puff.
