Pink Blast
Also known as: Pink Blast OG
Pink Blast Strain Overview
Pink Blast is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from California's cannabis breeding scene. The strain was developed by crossing Pink Kush with an unknown OG Kush phenotype, though some sources suggest it may involve other genetics like Pink Panther or Pink Lemonade. Breeders aimed to create a strain that combined the potent effects of classic Kush varieties with distinctive pink coloration and unique flavor profiles.
The strain is characterized by dense, conical buds that display a striking color palette. The flowers typically feature deep green foliage with vibrant pink and purple hues that intensify during cooler nighttime temperatures in the flowering phase. These colorful buds are covered in a thick layer of trichomes and orange pistils, giving them a frosty, resinous appearance. The aroma profile is complex, blending sweet, floral notes with earthy Kush undertones.
Pink Blast has gained popularity among both recreational users and medical cannabis patients for its balanced effects and appealing aesthetics. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, it has developed a following in certain cannabis communities, particularly in the western United States and Canada. The strain's exact genetic lineage remains somewhat uncertain, with different breeders potentially using varying parent strains to achieve similar characteristics.

Pink Blast Strain Growing Information
Pink Blast is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but thrives in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to be medium in height, reaching 120-180 cm outdoors and 90-150 cm indoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable temperatures during flowering to enhance color development, proper nutrient management to avoid nutrient burn, and adequate spacing for air circulation to prevent mold. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields.
