I got some Katsu Kush in the form of RSO and have used it orally, topically, and as an inhaled product. great for pain relief when applied topically. when inhaled, i find this strain to turn the color contrast of my vision up to 1000 and dial me in to focus on the task at hand. definitely an uplifting daytime high for me. I have ADHD and this is strain when dabbed has helped me cope almost as much as my prescribed stimulants do.
Katsu effects are mostly calming.
Katsu potency is higher THC than average.

This indica is named after the original breeder’s alias, and has garnered a reputation for its powerful, full-body effects that leave you blissfully stuck to the couch. Some phenotypes of Katsu Kush exhibit higher levels of CBD, so patients treating pain, inflammation, and anxiety should keep an eye out for this type. With a sweet earthy flavor, Katsu Kush offers a solution for stressful days and sleepless nights.

Katsu strain reviews(48)
If this is the katsu strain from the store in Amsterdam, Katsu Coffeeshop, this strain has had me missing it, the feeling of comfortableness and calmness is intense, I literally made an account for this strain
Great flavor! Very smooth... I tasted hints of cheese.
The nose is very unique. Similar to cat piss (the strain) but far more earthy. I had a large yield of all big buds with beautiful tru home heads everywhere and the effects were that of a true indica. Very relaxing and very fun to grow.
It’s a nice high, but doesn’t quite keep you high. A little bit of it is great for focusing on tasks. It does tend to make my heart race.
A nice Afghan/ Hindu cut,tastes pineyearthynutty lots of pinene very spicey on the intake but sooooooo earth/hashy on the way out! The particular cut ive got also hints at charas aroma on the exhale.must have sum pretty nice thc /cbd regulation going on wich isn't rare for these magnificent landraces of indica. heavy narco stone nice pain killer esp. back,knees, lower extremity and inflammation problems, but all around if your an indica connasuer you'll love it but if your on your way to the couch grab a pillow too! sweet dreams people, sweet dreams.
One of my favorite strains, an Indica done right in AZ, I've seen rich purple hues and plenty of resin on their buds. I have always loved the sweet earthy scent of it, no doubt high in myrcene. I also know that in addition to high THC and strong showings of CBD, Katsu is naturally higher in CBN, prior to oxidation. A perfect strain for evenings and nights to relax the mind and sedate the body.
This is the best pain killer strain I've found so far. I just wish my dispensary carried it in wax, if available in that form. This strain kills some serious back pain if your tolerance is ok enough to smoke flower. If not, the wax strain I've found closest to it is The Great Divide to kill massive pain. I woke up and had some of that wax and completely forgot to take my prescription for painkillers because I felt very little pain.
Highly recommended to anyone with a chronic illness suffering from insomnia. Also acts as an antispasmodic, working from inside to help knock you out and keep you down. Make sure to be ready for sleep before consuming this strain. Worth seeking out for any fellow MSer. Sleep well!
Not sure if the katsu is the mother to the bubba kush, an s1 of the pre98 or if its just a chosen phenotype. This tends to be more chocolately /coffee than the bubba that leans towards the OG, both being extremely earthy. Between the different varities im not entirely sure what is what, but i do know this is some killer smoke, most likely afghan. Most have hints of purple coloration. Starts behind the eyes and works down the body ending in relaxation mode and an appetite increase. Effects are similar to a good GDP or Urkle.
