Island Pink Kush, or simply known as “Island Pink,” is an Indica dominant hybrid cultivar created by combining the delicious Pink Kush cultivar with another unknown Indica hybrid cultivar. Known for its gorgeous appearance, Island Pink is perfect for any Indica lovers who enjoy an irresistible flavour. Island Pink has neon green airy spade-shaped buds that contain vivid hot pink hairs and a delicious coating of frosty, sugary white trichomes. As you break apart each sticky bud, you will start to receive intense aromas of pungent skunk, fresh vanilla and a sweet floral release. The flavour matches this cultivars aroma, with a sweet vanilla candy overtone with subtle hints of a flowery, skunky, earthy taste. Island Pink Kush has a sensation that is just as addictive as its flavour profile, with lifted and relaxing effects perfect for kicking back with your friends. The high starts off with an influx of cerebral euphoria, launching you into a state of pure happiness and hazy bliss. As your mind soars, you’ll begin to feel a slight tingle in your body, with sensations that start to creep up on you before suddenly taking hold and suddenly drop you into a state of pure relaxation and ease. With these complex hitting sensations and its average 24-27% THC level, Island Pink Kush is perfect for treating chronic pain, appetite loss or nausea, insomnia, and depression.

All medical information is not always going to be 100% for everyone. I am not a doctor, and the truth is Cannabis is unique for everyone due to its wide range of cultivars, and the chemical makeup of each cultivar can slightly change from crop to crop. Everyone experiences Cannabis very differently due to our individual and unique endocannabinoid system within our bodies. When trying a new cultivar, my best advice is to try a little bit to see how it will affect you personally. Start Low. Go Slow. Always remember Cannabis is different for everyone, so please use it responsibly.
