(Hindu Kush x Purple Afghani)

Purple Kush is a legendary cross of Hindu Kush and Purple Afghani, known for its deeply sedating, full-body effects. This is a strain for those who appreciate old-school indicas and unwinding. It’s heavy on relaxation, light on conversation. The aroma is rich and familiar, with notes of sweet grape, earthy soil, and a hint of spicy hash. The buds are dense and striking, with deep purple tones, fiery orange pistils, and a heavy coat of trichomes that hints at the potency inside. This is a strain that delivers what it promises: calm, comfort, and a steady fade into stillness. Best enjoyed with soft lighting, a quiet room, and nothing on your calendar.

Our pre-roll packs are crafted for every journey, containing 5 half gram pre-rolls hand packed with whole nug indoor flower.


More about this strain: Purple Kush

There are multiple origin stories about Purple Kush, also called Purple Hindu Kush, and no shortage of products on the market that claim its name.


According to Northern California’s Dark Heart Nursery, the strain originated in the Oaksterdam neighborhood of Oakland, Calif. The breeder and other online sources suggest it’s a cross of a Hindu Kush female pollinated by a Purple Afghani phenotype and a landrace cultivar from Afghanistan.


Afghani strains typically have sedative effects, which could explain why Purple Kush is known for its soothing, sleep-aiding properties. The strain is also named for its vibrant violet color, which is due to acidity levels, its anthocyanin (pigment) content and/or cooler temperatures where the plant is typically raised.
