Afghani Strain Review
Afghani strain is probably one of the most recognizable strains and it’s widely appreciated for its sturdy genetics and potency. This pure indica has been used for creating insanely popular strains like Blueberry and Northern Lights.
As the name may lead you to expect, the Afghani strain is named after its home country and it comes from the Hindu Kush Mountains. With THC levels reaching up to 28%, this Indica strain is definitely powerful enough to provide deep and sedative effects, which makes it ideal for evening or nighttime use.
Generally, the Afghani strain induces pervasive relaxation and deep body high, which usually leads to heavy couchlock and sleepiness. Some people report increased appetite after smoking these buds as well.
Effects:
relaxed, euphoric, sleepy, happy, tingly, hungry
May Relieve:
stress, insomnia, depression, pain, muscle spasms
The high from this classic Afghani strain is generally experienced on a physical level. However, regular users claim that it also helps bring them mental clarity and focus.
As mentioned before, the strain is definitely not an energizing bud, so you shouldn’t expect to be particularly active after smoking it.
The buds of the Afghani strain are pale to medium green in color with some orange hairs on the surface. You can also see a nice coat of trichomes that make the buds very tacky and resinous to the touch.
This famous Indica strain is known for its pungent and skunky aroma with diesel-like notes and hints of citrus. The aroma profile gets even more intense when you’re grinding the Afghani’s buds.
As for the smoke/vapor, it’s a bit thick and harsh on the throat, which may cause coughing among less experienced users. When smoking Afghani, you will taste some pine and herbal flavors with spicy yet sweet notes.
Although Afghani typically contains less than 1% of CBD, it still offers a wide range of medical benefits, mainly due to its sedative properties. If you’re suffering from insomnia or other sleep disorders, this bud may be ideal for your condition.
Moreover, the strain’s mellow euphoric high is ideal for those suffering from PTSD, depression, stress, or anxiety. With its heavy body effects, Afghani may be a perfect choice for relieving chronic pain, headaches, and even migraines.
Aside from the palette of pleasurable sensations, Afghani comes with some side effects, especially when consumed in larger quantities. However, these side effects are similar to those in other cannabis strains, including dry eyes and mouth, possibly paired with the feeling of being constantly thirsty.
The dry mouth is actually one of the most common side effects of smoking weed, but it’s easy to manage once you remember to hydrate before smoking and keep something minty or sweet-and-sour at hand.
All in all, the Afghani cannabis strain is a perfect bud to use before bed. It can also help you with a host of health conditions, including nausea, fatigue, or fibromyalgia, which makes Afghani great assistance in supporting overall well-being and promoting recovery.

First bag I got I was in love. Big nugs. All nice and tight. Second bag from same batch was way different. So I’m not sure how to rate it. First was nice. Second bag was not tight buds. Much smaller.

Afghani is an excellent strain, heavy hitting and couch locking. Not as powerful as other indica’s but it does the job well.

I loved this sooo much definitely going to purchase again 👍👍👍👍👍

I normally do hot knives and gravity bong to get a better potency and this was truly classic. Smell, taste, looks and potency hasn’t changed and so hasn’t my love for it. I would definitely recommend it to anyone, it’s perfect for anytime of the day although it does tend to make you a bit lazy when smoking it during the day.

I got this review a bit late but I kept the bag for a quick scent analysis, flowery, herbal….no earthiness.. It was very nice to smoke and was herbal and smooth, very much enjoyed. It didn’t blow my brains out…but great cure (as with all GK buds I’ve got) minus a Cannelope in a black bag that got much better after left out a night. I still have plenty of that and it has improved with age.

This was my 2nd time ordering around and i have to say once again the service was absolutely amazing and very friendly , It only took 3 days for my shipment to come in and when i received the package i was amazed i have to say i some of the buds were almost as big as the palm of my hand and i have never seen that in my 15 years lol The Afghani is very smooth and has a very delicate taste to it and it is wonderful, Thank you for your incredible service again , I will be returning as a customer again soon !

Gorgeous buds once again. Haven’t been disappointed yet ordering from this site. I tried it specifically for insomnia. I needed to smoke a little more than with the LA Confidential to get a full night’s sleep but once I got the dose right it was sweet dreams baby. Nice buzz too.

I really enjoyed this strain. I would re order again but I want to try some more strains first. I am really impressed with the quality of the AAA+ and AAAA strains on this Site

This is a classic smoke. Pretty smooth smoke . I Would recommend this strain. Does have a woodsy taste.

Excellent price for this smoke. Get Kush is number 1 in my books. And I have tried them all. GK does not have a bad bud among them
