This strain delivers a potent indica blast ideal for treating pain and insomnia without clouding the mind. It's an indica-dominant hybrid, but there is little public information on the exact sativa/indica ratio.
The effects of Pluto Kush are mostly physical, with deep relaxation and strong euphoria, but they're paired with noticeable cerebral effects, including creativity, happiness, and mental focus. Along with pain and sleeplessness, Pluto Kush can be used to treat anxiety, low mood, migraine headaches, nausea, and everyday stress.
THC levels in this strain are impressive, topping 21% in some samples. CBD levels, meanwhile, are less than half of 1%, making Pluto Kush a poor choice for medicating seizure syndromes or other conditions that can be alleviated with that cannabinoid.
No one knows what Pluto the former planet smells like, but Pluto Kush the marijuana strain smells like pungent flowers and citrus. The nugs are soft and fluffy. Dry eyes and dry mouth are the only widely reported negative effects of this strain, which can be found near the California/Arizona border. Elsewhere it's a rare find on both legal and black markets.
