Cannabis may have some universal effects, but using different strains of the plant can produce very different results. An indica strain may have you locked into your couch while watching old cartoons, while a sativa strain could make you want to do dishes and sing along to your favorite Taylor Swift album.
There’s more to marijuana strains than just the difference between indica vs sativa. Factors like aroma, CBD & THC percentages, terpene profiles, and cannabinoid content can make smoking a strain you’ve never had before a completely new experience.
Happy Tree Buds carries a wide variety of cannabis strains and products. When you purchase from our store, you know that your herb is of the best quality and each strain name is accurate. We have a variety of sativas, indicas, and hybrids to choose from.
Here are the top 5 strains that Happy Tree Buds carries and how each one is distinct. Read on to figure out which marijuna strains to try with your next order!
Pink Kush
Pink Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid. It’s very strong on the indica, with 90% indica content and only 10% sativa. It has a 20% THC percentage, which is very high, and a 1% CBD percentage, which is low.
The flavor and aroma of this cannabis strain have notes of pine, flowers, and wood. You’ll also get traces of sweet vanilla or candy. Pink Kush gets its name from the tiny pink hairs that grow from its nugs.

Pink Kush provides a strong, deep body high. People feel euphoric and calm when smoking it, and you’ll be extremely happy once it kicks in. You’ll also probably get an extreme case of the munchies, so make sure you have some great snacks by the couch before you smoke!

The Runtz strain tastes almost as good as its candy counterpart! It has a delicious fruity flavor with notes of tropical sweetness and sour berries. When you smell it, you’ll get a whiff of sharp, spicy pineapple. The bud has grape-shaped olive green nugs with orange hairs. You’ll notice dark purple undertones and frosty white crystal trichomes.
Getting high off Runtz only takes a few minutes. You’ll experience a calming lift in your head before the uplifting sensation moves into the rest of your body.

The first sign that you’re high on RockStar is a cerebral head rush. You’ll feel uplifted and happy, and you’ll want to cross some stuff off your to do list.
