Cherry Skunk Pie
Linage: Cherry Punch x AK Skunk/Pure Gooey/Purple Mayham
Bred by us in Alaska in collaboration with @blu_channel on IG
Photoperiod: 8 Week Flowering Time
Purpose: Commercial Cultivation
Grow Type: Indoor & Greenhouse
Trichomes: A frosty coating of trichomes, giving buds a sticky, resinous texture and a sparkling appearance.
Pistils: Bright orange hairs interwoven across the buds, typical of both Cherry Pie and Cherry Skunk.
- Cherry Skunk Pie buds are dense and tightly packed, characteristic of indica-dominant hybrids.
Primary Notes: Sweet and tart cherry, reminiscent of freshly baked cherry pie, from Cherry Pie’s myrcene and limonene terpenes.
Secondary Notes: Earthy and pungent skunk undertones from Cherry Skunk, with hints of stone fruit and fresh herbs.
Intensity: The aroma intensifies when buds are broken apart, filling the air with a mix of fruity sweetness and skunky funk.
The flavor mirrors the aroma, delivering a rich and layered smoking experience:
Inhale: Sweet cherry and berry notes dominate, with a smooth, dessert-like quality akin to Cherry Pie.
Exhale: Earthy, skunky, and slightly tangy flavors emerge, with hints of spice or pine from Cherry Skunk’s terpene profile.
Aftertaste: A lingering mix of fruity sweetness and subtle herbal or cheesy notes, potentially from Skunk Dawg’s influence.
Terpenes: Dominated by myrcene (earthy, musky), limonene (citrusy, uplifting), beta-caryophyllene (spicy, peppery), and pinene (piney, focused), contributing to the strain’s unique sensory profile.
Moderately easy strain to cultivate, inheriting the resilience of Cherry Pie and Cherry Skunk.
Climate: Thrives in temperate, Mediterranean-like conditions with daytime temperatures of 70-80°F (21-27°C) and slightly cooler nights.
Indoor Growing:
Height: Short and bushy, reaching 100-120 cm, ideal for indoor setups with limited space.
Lighting: Requires high-quality LED or HPS lights with 18-20 hours of light during vegetative growth and 12/12 for flowering.
Yield: Up to 450-500 g/m² after 8-9 weeks of flowering.
Training: Responds well to low-stress training (LST) or pruning to manage bushy growth and maximize bud sites.
Cultural Notes
Cherry Pie, a parent strain, has a storied history, bred by “Pieguy” in San Francisco and popularized by the Cookie Family. It’s a cornerstone of modern cannabis breeding, influencing strains like Girl Scout Cookies and Wedding Cake. Cherry Skunk, less documented, carries the legacy of skunk genetics, known for potency and pungency.
