Strain Guide

What Is Purple Kush?

Purple Kush is a pure indica strain created by crossing Hindu Kush with Purple Afghani. Originating in the Oakland area of California, it became one of the defining indica strains of the West Coast cannabis scene. The strain is known for its striking deep purple coloring, which comes from the anthocyanin pigments activated by cooler growing temperatures.

THC content in Purple Kush ranges from 17 to 22 percent, making it moderately potent. The terpene profile features myrcene (deep relaxation), pinene (earthy aroma), and caryophyllene (subtle spice). The effects are heavily sedating — this is a classic couch-lock strain that promotes sleep, appetite, and full-body relaxation.

Jungle Kingdom Flower carries Purple Kush for customers seeking reliable nighttime relief. The grape and berry flavors are smooth and approachable. Available at our Bed-Stuy location at 515 Nostrand Ave in flower format.
