Pink Tuna is a rare indica dominant hybrid strain (70% indica/30% sativa) created through crossing the classic Pink Kush X Tuna Kush strains. The high starts with cerebral effects that suddenly crash through your mind, leaving you utterly euphoric and pretty unfocused at times with a tendency to drift away into space. As your mind settles, your body will start to drop off into a deeply relaxing tingly state, which lulls you into a heavy couch-lock. This effect quickly turns sedative, leaving you dozing off and on in a state of pure happiness and peace. Thanks to these effects and its high THC level, Pink Tuna is often chosen to treat conditions such as chronic pain, insomnia, depression, chronic stress, and muscle spasms or cramps. Pink Tuna buds have a sweet and sour fruity diesel flavor with a heavy pungent aroma to match.
What are hybrid strains?
Hybrid strains are bred from both indica- and sativa-descended plants. Due to the long history of crossbreeding cannabis strains—much of it was historically done underground to evade authorities—strains that have pure indica or pure sativa lineages are rare. Most strains referred to as “indica” or “sativa” are, in fact, hybrids, with genetics inherited from both subspecies.
Hybrid effects
Since hybrid weed strains derive genetics from indicas and sativas, their ensuing effects can also pull from both indica and sativa strains. Common effects include happy, euphoric, uplifting, energetic, relaxing—it all depends on which hybrid you consume and what effects its “parent” strains are known to produce.
Looking at a hybrid’s lineage (its parent strains) may give you a better sense of what kind of effects it will produce; for example, if it has more indica in its lineage, it might have effects more associated with those strains.
