Origin
Cherry Pie crosses Grandaddy Purple with Durban Poison, a California pairing of a heavy purple indica and a fast sativa. It has twenty-two descendants on file, which makes it one of the more widely bred strains in this batch. The catch is sourcing: authentic Cherry Pie is genuinely hard to find, and many jars under the name are something else.

About
Cherry Pie smells like dessert and tests like a mid-strength hybrid.
It is a California cross of Grandaddy Purple and Durban Poison, known for a sweet baked-goods nose. In our data the lab sample lands under 17 percent THC, and the aroma reads more blueberry than cherry. Authentic cuts are scarce.
The reputation runs ahead of the flower.
What to Expect
Cherry Pie is a relaxed, happy lift that a few reviewers take in the daytime. Leafly's closest reviewer set voted happy and relaxed almost unanimously, both near 57 percent, with euphoria close behind and a small creative streak. The tested strength is modest, so the ceiling is lower than the name suggests.
Dry mouth and dry eyes both drew near-unanimous mention from that same set, at 24 and 14 percent in the wider data; nothing else clears single digits. A standard dose is comfortable. It is versatile enough for most of the day.
Flavor and Aroma
Cherry Pie's aroma is sweet and earthy with a blueberry note that often reads louder than the cherry. The flavor is closer to the name: tart cherry and sweet berry over a little earth. It is a genuinely fruit-forward strain, just not always a cherry one.
Terpenes Explained
Cherry Pie's measured panel leads with Myrcene, from about a third of a percent to over three quarters, with Caryophyllene next and Pinene swinging widely from one sample to the next.
Nothing in the panel explains a literal baked-goods smell; that comes from lighter aromatics a standard test skips, and it is the first thing to fade in an old jar. A batch that still smells of sweet berry and warm earth is a fresh one.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Cherry Pie THC is reported from about 13 to 26 percent, a very wide band, but the lab-measured sample in our data is under 17. Most sources call it potent but not top-shelf strong. CBD can reach one percent.
Cherry Pie's tested strength runs mid-range, so buy it for the flavor and the balance rather than for a heavy hit.
