Anyone who is looking for natural anxiety, depression or pain relief with uplifting euphoric overtones, will appreciate Afghan Kush strain from Curaleaf. They are one of two dispensaries currently (as of 4/3/2019) approved by the Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU) to sell smokable flower to patients.
The other dispensary selling flower, to date, is Trulieve but, unlike them, Curaleaf has had more Indica dominant loose flower early on, like Afghan Kush, which we’ve reviewed here in detail.
Afghan Kush Strain at Curaleaf Dispensaries
Since we are reviewing all the medical marijuana dispensary smokable flower, it's only fair to say that while Trulieve is larger and has more patients, it was much easier getting a hold of Curaleaf and ordering Afghan Kush medical marijuana strain for delivery, which arrived the same day.
This isn’t typical, and deliveries can take up to 3 days in some cases, depending on the availability of the smokable flower you want and the number of deliveries in your area at that time.
Still, it's worth noting that our flower was delivered within four hours of hanging up the phone with a Curaleaf consultant.
About Afghan Kush Strain
This 100% Indica dominant marijuana originated in the Hindu Kush mountain range, hence the name. Afghan Kush is widely used for many conditions, both medical and recreational, since it’s the poster boy strain, for what Indica effects should be.
The flower (buds) are tight and condensed and have some trichomes visible, although this strain isn’t one of the most beautiful. The buds are darker green and just under the surface contain a thick, almost hash-like dense interior.
What Are The Medical Uses of Afghan Kush Strain?
Afghan Kush is a great medical marijuana strain for the patient in need of relief because it offers so many health benefits. The medical community reports that patients use this strain for many conditions, most of which are associated with pain and anxiety. The high 21% THC content ensures you feel the effects fast, but in a smooth, uplifting way.
These effects come over you within just a few minutes of smoking; this is not creeper bud that takes a while to kick in. Because Afghan Kush is a pure Indica, it gives you a calming effect known to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. However, the medical applications don’t stop there, and recently doctors found that it can also help with things like:
Pain and chronic pain management
Anxiety
Depression
Sleep aid
Muscle Relaxer
Epilepsy and seizures
Stress
Some eating disorders
