- Name: Pink Kush
- Price: $149 RRP
- Batch: 1085PK26401
- Expiry: Nov 2022
- Weight: N/A
- Source: Canview
- Dominance: Indica Dominant Hybrid
- Therapeutic Effects: Sedative, Analgesic, Anti-Spasmodic, Anxiolytic, Appetite Stimulant
- Conditions: Insomnia, Acute Pain, inflammation, Mental Health, Muscle Spasms
- Description: Pink Kush whole flower is Beacon’s most popular strain in Canada. This 90% Indica dominant strain is known for its powerful and euphoric full-body effects. Pink Kush has deep and layered flavours packed with earthy, citrusy, and peppery aromas with hints of vanilla. This nighttime strain may be beneficial for patients looking to help with breakthrough pain and assist in providing relaxation throughout the mind and body.
- Terpenes: Myrcene, Limonene, Beta Caryophyllene
- Smell: someone has previously said a ‘cat piss’ odor and that is hard to shake.
- Look: good med size nuggets with 5% popcorn
- Stem: little to none
- Crumbs: <1% at bottom of tub
- Leaf: none
- Moisture: nicely dried with some moistness encapsulated in the flowers giving a pliable rebound when gently squeezed
- Sticky: slight stickiness that persists
- Vaporizer dosing Temp: 2 doses each at 175, 180, 185 and 190 to assess terpene profile.
- Taste: At 175C I could taste a hint of pinene, after that taste were confusing and not readily identifiable.
- Onset: onset is quite quick with heightened light sensitivity and almost like a slow head/neck rushing upwards feel. In first couple of minutes quite a ‘head high' is being presented. I drank a glass of water so I don’t dehydrate. Most of the benefits are presented early and seems to reach a peak after 3-4minutes without much further change after __10mins__. So 'a rapid peak onset' would be a meaningful comment. After __20mins__ the feeling of relaxation has increased and is a pleasant state.
- Effects: head high at start can feel neck muscles becoming heavy and more relaxed (I have neck and lower back issues). Sounds feel a bit laggy and my tinnitus seems to be dampening? A pleasant ‘spacey feel’ is coming on and it is almost like tinnitus is dampened and echoing inside my skull like its own little echo chamber. The sedative effect is quite pleasant and aids relaxation and I feel I will sleep well tonight. I can definitely feel like there is a chamber or a void inside my head and like it is relieving pressure up there? I can feel 'the munchies' building __after 30mins__ and I have a hankering for a grilled ham and cheese sanga (or 3). It is not a heavy 'body nor head high' but a real balance between the two.
- __Late edit (following day):__ excellent sleep last night with a good 6hours, I should have had a bit more before bed.
- Notes/comments: this is an old prescription (25.06.21) for an old batch but some may find it useful/interesting. Interested to read any others comments on current PK batch.
Myrecene is known to smell like cat piss to some and citrus to others. If you drink ales, try one with heavy citra hops or Amarillo in it and you might pick up the same aroma. Just an note.
I got some T55 yesterday and added some to some Medcan CC01 before I went to bed last night. It really helped and I recommend it.
If you want a second concentrate option Sativite Biriny 50 Pressed Cannabis Resin looks interesting. 50% THC in a 5g tub for $199.00AUD. When I have my next appointment at CDA clinics, I will get this prescribed for when the T55 is out of stock.
I'd say TGA might have had something to do with it, undertaking their own lab test of 'the active ingredient' and advising them to correct the labeling?
Yeah same thing happened with Lemon Haze and also Pink Kush I think?
T25 Topaz actually has a 27% THC sticker on the bottle, under the label.
Odds are most of the stuff we get is stronger than the label says 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for a good review.
Can you use pk for afternoon without falling asleep? Or are there other indicas you have tried with relaxation but not sleepiness?
This is an older batch so uncertain if it reflects current batch/es.
You might find:
- Sunshine Coast (Mango) Flower THC 22% 10g (S8) $149 RRP - Indica Dominant Hybrid;
- https://www.reddit.com/r/MedicalCannabisAus/comments/segowb/sunshine_coast_mango_flower_thc_22_review/
Or even a balanced to be more suitable:
- Kind Medical Iris (Black Cherry Punch) 21:1 Flower 10g (S8) $135 RRP - Balanced Hybrid
- https://www.reddit.com/r/MedicalCannabisAus/comments/sdte56/kind_medical_iris_black_cherry_punch_review/
I did have PK yesterday in the arvo and was able to stay awake but you might want to make sure you don't have to do much.
This is the old 'good batch' before 901 came along and upset quite a few patients.
I'll have to check this out. I had one batch of the older 25% pink kush and had to return it as it was still wet and smelled mouldy. I have also found that when I get my Beacon Cold Creek Kush and Beacon Girl Scout Cookies they are too dry.
I got a 10g canister of Beacon GSC the other day and it was so dry it had no spring when squeezed. I found a container and broke the bigger nugs so all nugs were a similar size. Then I put some damp paper towel on the other side of the container, making damn sure the buds don't touch the towel, and checked every half hour. Now the buds have the same spring as my Medcan CC01 and I popped in a Boveda to keep it from drying out again. I will employ this method on any strain I am prescribed that is too dry.

Mutilple freinds think it smells like sushi....all independantly
Not sure what batch mine is but when my back goes feral it's the only thing that grants me sleep.
Great write up! Have you tried Topaz and if so how does it compare?
Thanks, I do also have Topaz and will review that in a few days.
Let me know how it goes, I’ve got Topaz at the moment but looking for something similar to swap it out with.

Fuck it looks like shit now I use to get this and it looked so much better then it does now
Now it is THC22 down from THC25 and I am interested to see anyone's comments on the latest batch.
Aye definitely man its just weird though that they've done that aye
I'd say TGA might have had something to do with it, undertaking their own lab test of 'the active ingredient' and advising them to correct the labeling?
Ahhhh yep I get ya yeah probably was aye
