The Raspberry Kush experience
Raspberry Kush is a sleepy bud that is best saved for the evening. However, while this strain produces a deep and physical relaxation, it also provides a surprisingly upbeat mental experience.
Right off the bat, many consumers notice a pronounced head high. Mental tasks like reading may be particularly enjoyable with this strain.
However, this mental kick is accompanied by a slower and more powerful heavy body sensation. Getting comfy on the couch or snuggling up somewhere cozy will be easy with this strain.
Consumers may also find themselves making a trip or two to the refrigerator, on a quest to find something that will satisfy the bad case of the munchies it provides.
Though sedative, there is also a creative aspect to this strain. Artistic types might enjoy working slowly on a project after a taste or two of this delicious strain.
However, don’t expect to dive too deeply into complex tasks. This is a lighthearted bud, and you may find yourself more subdued than attentive.
