Cherry Pie Strain
Sweet-tart cherry and a balanced calm that does not take the day away.
Cherry Pie is a hybrid strain from Granddaddy Purple x Durban Poison, typically testing 16–22% THC and <1% CBD. It leans myrcene and caryophyllene on the terpene side, smells like tart cherry and sweet dough over a light earthiness, and most patients describe it as balanced, calm head, light body. It's a anytime strain that people reach for afternoon, patients with moderate tolerance, anyone between daytime and night — ask for it at RedBilly in Colcord or Roland, Oklahoma.

Cherry Pie is the middle of the shelf in the best sense. It is not the strongest jar in the case and it is not trying to be — it is balanced, predictable, and easy to place in a day.
The parents are Granddaddy Purple and Durban Poison, which is the same pairing behind Girl Scout Cookies and explains why Cherry Pie shows up in so many family trees itself.
The smell is tart cherry and sweet dough with a light earthiness behind it, less intense than most of the modern dessert strains but distinctly its own.
Effects are calm in the head and light in the body. Patients use it in the afternoon more than any other time, because it takes the edge off without ending the day.
The moderate THC range makes it one of the safer picks for patients still finding their tolerance, and it is a regular recommendation for that reason.
Buds typically run dense with purple leaves and orange pistils, inheriting the color from the Granddaddy Purple side of the cross.
It comes and goes in our case with the growing cycle. Check the live menu for current availability at either store.
