541 Kush

541 Kush, bred by Eugenius, is a heavy-hitting strain (cultivar) that begins with a subtle tingling sensation that slowly spreads throughout the body. It’s highly indica dominant, with an indica to sativa ratio of 90:10. Its tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) levels are moderate at 15%-20%, giving the strain a long-lasting high.

541 Kush was selectively bred to bring out the characteristics of Kush varieties and comes from a very well-known phenotype, Triangle Kush, delivering the reliable body high common to Kush strains.

Users report that the strain is perfect for use at the end of the day to unwind, relieve stress, relax, and sleep aid. The strain is popular for those managing insomnia, chronic pain, fatigue, and stress.

The strain has a spicy flavor with floral hints upon exhalation, while the aroma boasts an array of earthy herbs, spicy diesel, and skunk tones. Visually, the buds are fluffy, neon green, and oval-shaped, with orange hairs and a sparse coating of tiny, white crystal trichomes.

Flavonoids

Flavonoids are one of the lesser-known compounds in cannabis, and little is known about the flavonoids present in each strain because they are rarely tested. Like terpenes, flavonoids add to each strain’s flavor and fragrance profile.

Studies have shown that the major flavonoids present in all cannabis plants are cannflavins A, B, and C.

Effects

541 Kushs has been reported to have the following effects:

  • Relaxing
  • Pain Relief
  • Psychoactive
  • Sedating
  • Sleepiness

The following adverse effects have also been reported:

  • Dry Eyes
  • Dry Mouth
  • Couch Lock
  • Fatigue

The effects of 541 Kush are strong and reportedly come on quickly. Users of 541 Kush report that the strain has the ability to knock out even experienced users before they can make it off the couch. But fear not: 541 Kush’s high is enjoyable if highly sedative.

Users report the high begins with a gentle tingling feeling that slowly moves around the body as the high takes hold. As the body high is setting in, you may feel relief from pain, anxiety, and stress as the body relaxes, and worries melt away.

“Couch lock” can come on rather quickly and leave you stuck in place before you drift off into a deep and restful sleep.

Dosing

As with all strains new to you, it is a good idea to start with a small dose and work your way up slowly until you achieve the effect you’re looking for. Dosage will also depend on your method of consumption, as the different options will vary in their ability to make their contained cannabinoids bioavailable, meaning how much of the cannabinoid content in the bud is made available to your body for absorption. For example, smoking 1 gram of this strain will provide a different experience than vaporizing the same amount.

Growing

Those looking to grow 541 Kush will be disappointed that the seeds are not readily available for purchase. Seeds sold as 541 Kush may be of a similar genetic makeup or provide similar effects but will not be the authentic plant bred by Eugenius.

However, due to the lineage of 541 Kush, it is safe to assume that it would boast the same growing characteristics as other Kush strains.
