Platinum Kush is a 90% indica strain, likely resulting from the cross of Master Kush and an Afghani strain. The sedating high from this indica is perfect for a night of anxiety-free relaxation. Platinum Kush gets its name from its sparkly appearance, a result of the dense trichomes that grow on the bud. This is a good strain for anxiety, depression, and pain, as the body high is deeply relaxing. This strain has a sweet, pungent smell reminiscent of fruit and a sweet, earthy taste. Platinum Kush produces a mellow, easy feeling, that can help with insomnia. Dry mouth and red eyes are the only likely adverse effects, though paranoia is also possible.
