Blog: Post: Oh, High Summer! “Orange Crush”

Summer has finally blessed us with its presence. I couldn't be any happier that the cold temperatures are now behind us. I'm also grateful I can smoke or toke outside again without cold hands.


If you’re looking for something dank and earthy with a nice citrus kick that screams summer, 'Orange Crush' is your best bud. This bud is a sativa-dominant hybrid, that will moderately hit your cerebral without giving you that 'couch-lock'. I mean who wants to be stuck inside now that the weather got mild! This flower's THC levels tap out at 22%, so it isn't the most potent strain out there. Of course if you're a beginner, please toke responsibly and with patience until you learn your proper dose.


For those that are more familiar with this bud's effects, you should expect this bud to greet your cerebral with a pleasant potency that will keep you uplifted, creative and focused, while eliciting feelings of happiness and euphoria. Which makes it a great afternoon strain to help ease stress, anxiety depression, fatigue and pain. Also if you feel yourself being distracted by nausea or migraines, 'Orange Krush' can help ease those symptoms as well.

Once the 'Orange Krush' smoke swirls hit your nose, you should expect a dank, earthy aroma of citrus. The flavors are best described as tangy, with distinct flavors of sweet oranges. As with most bud you should anticipate the dry eyes and cottonmouth. It's nothing a nice cool glass of water can't help.

Although this bud is most popular in the West Coast, Arizona and Colorado, it isn't that difficult to find elsewhere. Athenas Gifts, located in Washington DC, has plenty of this gem. It's a great strain to kickstart those summer vibes. Just check out our menu, to see how you can donate to get gifted. We have plenty of flowers, edibles, tinctures and vape carts to chose from. Let's continue to spread the love, and support our female and minority-owned businesses! Just come on by and show some love to our beautiful ladies here in 'The District'!
