Platinum Kush Strain Overview
Need help sleeping or eating? Perhaps you just want to slip into a state of slumber on the sofa and let the worries of the day float away. Platinum Kush (aka “Platinum Kush OG”) has got your back. A fascinating cross between Afghani, OG Kush, and a debatable mystery parent, this mystical mix of genetics earns it top-shelf status.
As precious as the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, Platinum Kush may be “heavy” in terms of THC content (16%-21%), but it will leave you feeling light. The strain gets its name from the platinum-silvery jacket slung over its orange hair-flecked green buds. Admire the purple hues and shimmering crystal resin before taking a whiff of the fruity hash scent. A body-numbing option that may be sedating yet cerebrally enlightening, it is best enjoyed before bed.

Platinum Kush Strain Effects & Common Usage
When the anti-inflammatory effects of THC and caryophyllene merge together, pain levels may ultimately plummet. Together, the primary cannabinoid and terpene also promote relaxation.
Hungry. Expect a case of the munchies when you indulge in this THC-rich strain due to the production of the hunger hormone ghrelin.
Relaxed. Relaxation is one of the main perks associated with myrcene consumption.
Sleepy. Catch some Z’s after a few doses of this THC and myrcene-rich strain. This combination may enhance relaxation and improve sleep.
Anxiety. The anxiolytic effects of limonene and beta-caryophyllene may take the edge off after a busy day.
Pain. Caryophyllene, a spicy terpene with a peppery taste, is a natural pain reliever and anti-inflammatory.
Stress. Some patients praise THC for its ability to reduce stress in low doses, potentially combating PTSD symptoms.
Platinum Kush Strain Dosage Recommendations
Brimming with up to 21% THC, Platinum Kush is certainly a hard-hitter. Take it low and slow, with well-spaced puffs (if smoking.)
The right dosage can vary greatly from one user to the next. If you have questions about finding the right dosage or product type for your needs, consider consulting with a medical cannabis doctor, or you can request a consultation with NuggMD’s Cannabis Concierge.
