What is Cherry Pie?
Cherry Pie’s parents are Granddaddy Purple and Durban Poison. With buds that are dense and full of orange hairs and a touch of purple, this strain smells of sweet and sour cherry pie. The effects have been known to come on in minutes and stick around for a couple hours.
Cherry Pie is a sweet, tart hybrid — the perfect way to relax at the end of the day. Indica-dominant, this strain features moderate THC levels and is an easy choice for novice growers.
Cherry Pie Experience
Cherry Pie is a clone-only strain popular on the West Coast of the United States. Many claim that Cherry Pie is a cross between Durban Poison and Granddaddy Purple. This strain is an Indica-dominant hybrid. It’s best known for producing a cerebral high coupled with a smooth, heavy body sensation. This strain is potent but isn’t too heavy on the THC. Levels tend to hover between 15 and 18%, making it a good choice for newer marijuana consumers.

Traits of Cherry Pie and Cherry Pie Experience
Marijuana experts will immediately recognize this strain by its signature scent: a strong sweet berry, tart cherry aroma coupled with a subtle earthiness. No wonder where the name cherry pie came from. These aromas are mirrored in the strain’s sweet cherry and berry flavors, which will have cannabis enthusiasts clamoring for more. The smooth smoke is easy to handle on the inhale, while the exhale reveals some toasted flavors to real marijuana connoisseurs. Those worried about discretion should be warned, this strain is pretty potent when combusted.
Tightly curled leaves are a signature of Indica marijuana, and this strain is no exception. Bright orange pistils streak their way through green leaves and are coated in translucent trichomes, which make these nugs shimmer in the right light.

This strain won’t knock you out quite like other Indicas. Rather, expect a long, slow, functional sedation, which makes it a popular choice for medical marijuana patients.

Just got done finishing a full bowl(about 8-10 full hits, bowl holds about half a gram or just a little over) after having a late night and smoking 2-3 grams, last smoking it at midnight. Had a refresh(went to bed at 1:00AM, woke up at 10:00AM) and didn’t think this was going to really do anything.
WOW WAS I WRONG.

Cherry pie smells delicious, and the taste on the exhale has a fantastic kick of cherry pie taste. I have pretty bad cramps/pms and this strain immediately alleviated my pain. Add a side of giggles and happiness also.

Cherry pie has a humble yet beautiful look. The lightish green bud is speckled with orange hairs. This strain rides down easy, being a softer inhale. The high definitely takes a few minutes to fully hit the smoker. While it does have a pretty strong head affect, it still relaxes the body just slightly enough to allow the smoker to remain productive if so desired. The flavor of this strain was that of a very faint black cherry. This bud provided a euphoric feeling often leaving me with outrageous, yet controllable giggles. It definitely a great strain for some silly laughing. I felt a sense of creativity, and intuneness with music on this weed. I wouldn’t say its the best I’ve had, it is definitely a quality strain.

“Granddaddy purp and Durban poison two of my favorites make up this totally killer strain. I got this one as a shake bag (a very killer bag from my dispensary, by the way) and it knocked me on my butt! I’m a veteran smoker and it takes a quality flower to impress me, this Cherry Pie wins first prize. No lie, Very pleasant smelling and tasting as well. Heavy cerebral stone, but good energy. Another taste go to strain,…”
