Purple Hindu Kush reviews
This is a great strain for those who want to find something which focuses on reducing physical pain and swelling. Its awesome for relaxing and sleep, but also for physical pain. I noticed it helps with anxiety as well.
I tore my ACL and three other main left knee ligaments this last summer 2020 while out mountain biking a trail system in the Cascades in Oregon. I had reconstruction surgery for my ACL a few months ago, and for those who don't know healing time from an ACL reconstruction is horrible. The chronic pain from the holes which were drilled into my thigh and shin bone to insert screws which connected the new patella graft to the two bones ached ALL the time. Swelling in my knee went on for months after the surgery. Even after three months and my knee felt somewhat better, the chronic pain would come up while doing simple things like going to the grocery store or taking the trash out.
This chronic pain and slight swelling around my surgical sight made it really hard for me to function from day-to-day. I tried this strain in edible gummy form and the first time I tried it the pain just disappeared and the swelling went down immediately. Definitely great for warding off inflammation.
As a side note....after trying this almost pure Indica strain in comparison to what I usually smoke, even though the THC and CBD levels are nearly the same, I began to notice immediately that these two different strains of weed really do create different reactions within the body and mind. This made me think more about how the sativa vs Indica weed types and strain types really did react differently in the body. It goes to show that CBD and THC aren't the only compounds in weed that do react to the body, and that we should be looking deeper at what exact other compounds react to the human body and mind to cause different health effects. This would really help in selecting what strains help more with one health ailment other another type of specific health ailment (such as depression and anxiety over pain and sleep).
Right now it seems with the study of terpenes there has been a wider range of acceptance that weed isn't just about how much THC or CBD is within the bud. We need to accept as a community of stoners that other spectrums of compounds come together to make diverse types of weed, it's not just about the THC or CBD levels. Don't be lettin those scientists say these terpenes do nothing, because as a long-time stoner of sativa who suddenly started smokin indicas after a major surgery I am more then qualified to state that there is indeed a different in sativa weed over indica weed. And not just this, but when selecting weed with a different terpene profile, even if you end up smoking two pure indicas you may find that they react differently since the terpene profile is different.
I usually just bought marijuana edibles which did not specify what strain or type it was. Now after trying out pure Purple Hindu Kush I realized this weed was literally doing something different to my body by reducing swelling and helping more with pain over what I usually smoke.
I'd recommend it for anyone having trouble with pain and swelling and/or sleep. I know the majority of people suffer from sleep issues post-surgery. Personally, I did for at least a month and a half post-ACL reconstruction. I'd recommend this Purple Hindu Kush strain to anyone who is looking to stock up on weed prior to a major surgery and do not want to use opiod pain medication those first few weeks after surgery. I was given opiods for post-surgery recovery and instructed to take them for pain a couple weeks after, since the nerve blocker wears out a few days after surgery. Instead, I used weed to get through it, and I can tell you this stuff was a pain-saver. Purple Hindu Kush is one of those strains I'd recommend to those looking to replace an opiod-level pain reliever with marijuana, such as for post-surgery recovery.
Hindu kush is such a fantastic strain. I really like this one. Just smoked a bong pack and decided to watch the macarena. That's what it's got me doing. My stash has the classic Hindu Kush smell/taste (earthy, peppery, kushy) but with a mint element. I haven't decided if that's a plus or negative yet. It's a very good relaxing but not overpowering strain. It does give me headrushes upon standing, though.
It's payday and I couldn't resist Purple Hindu Kush, which was the cheap ounce today at the dispensary. Purple HIndu Kush happens to be in my top 5 favorite strains. The nugs are big and dank, and it planted a slow grin in my face tonite
Mine tested at 21.3% THC. Purple Hindu Kush smells and tastes to me like balsam with a hint of eucalyptus and sour grape. This indica is a cross between Hindu Kush and Purple Afghani, and it brings a warm comforting feeling to my mind and body. Makes me want to run away to India, join an ashram, and meditate all day while toking on this relaxing herb through a long wooden ceremonial pipe.
I will now ceremoniously take this pipe upstairs and toke some more before bed - while this doesn't knock you out like, say, 9 Pound Hammer, it does deeply relax both the mind and body, though mine didn't have a significant amount of CBD in it, but was we all know there is so much more to ganja than just THC and CBD, don't we...
Besides being great for my anxiety & insomnia, this is also a GREAT pain reliever.
I’m about 10 days post-op from a major lower abdominal surgery, & I remembered I have this tincture of PHK; it has been a LIFE-SAVER!!
So, if you’re someone like myself, who PREFERS natural pain relief, versus the big pharma options out there, (when possible,) then I highly recommend this strain.
Just to reiterate, I’m referring to my current usage of PHK, which is by way of tincture oil; used subcutaneously, (under the tongue.)
🤙🏼
Insomnia? Pain? PTSD? This is seriously one of the only strains I will buy and keep in stock 24/7 for my mental health and sleep issues. A few grams before bed and you’ll actually sleep. Don’t plan to be up doing anything on this, it’s for sleep and it will couch lock you instantly. PHK is to sleep what Northern Lights is to pain relief. Nighty night 🍃 💨 😴
I’m enjoying this strain via a pod system from Modern Herb Co. This is the only “vape” that has ever gotten me high. And boy does it deliver! Going to try the flower soon.
Had this strain probably about 6 months ago and it's the best strain I've EVER tried.
This is a strain like none I've ever tried, the body high was so strong it barely felt like weed. My whole body felt like pure bliss.
Call in sick today. This strain will kick demons out the house or invite them in with its tanting flavors of light blueberry. Strong easy to please aroma. Hints of gas sneak out it's prey.So beware,
