When i first got my hands on this strain, i was apprehensive based on reports of its only moderate (to me) THC level. I do often prefer more of a kick, either mentally or in a physiological sense. The 7 gram bag i grabbed from SoCo North was sublime in smell - it quite honestly smelled like a fruity, flowery kush! This was inviting to me, as lately i have been hitting hard strains (that are in my review backlog) such as plat. bubba kush - no games with that strain, it is straight kush no nonsense. But that is where mango kush really surprised me - the taste was not what the smell eluded me too, and I was so, so SO OK with that.
The taste, in the chest, hits hard and stays for a long time, and is ideal if you are like me and love the kush aroma, taste and chest feel that is known for among users of cannabis. The taste on the pallet is undeniably kushy, but with fruity undertones that compliment the smell much more then the aftereffects of inhalation on one's lungs.
The effects of this strain were hard to pin down so i busted out the bag i have ( i have since moved on to Pink OG - a clone only (?) strain Review coming soon) and packed a fresh, fat bowl, as this is my preferred method of medicating with my MMPR. Upon inhalation, for me, i get an almost undeniably sativa oriented energy and euphoria - all of this though, slowly tapers down into an effect profile akin to working on an essay, sitting down to listen to music, or, if need be, go to sleep! When i use this strain in the company of others, i get very giggly and happy - interesting though is that i get very introspective when alone, but the happiness remains. This is a very versatile strain for me and still packs the kush taste i love and crave so much from other more medicinal strains that are more geared to my issues. This is a 110% favourite of mine!
Medicinal properties are astounding when used in many differnt situations - mango kush does wonders for my back pain, and eliminates the pain i feel from psoriasis. The level of reliefe is somewhat limited in terms of length though, and i feel the amount of THC common in this plant is the blame. This does lead me to medicate more and becasue of that i must give this amazing strain 4/5 - it is ALMOST perfect.. but it needs more of a THC kick to be perfect for myself.
find a bag, medicate, and enjoy a nice treat - especially if you are a fan of "Kush".
