Sour Pineapple is cut right down the middle of its genetic lineage, a combo of Pineapple Kush and Sour Diesel. Its THC is low for expert users but even 13% provides a burst of pleasant effects for novices that want to relax with mild potency and delicious flavors. The fruity blend of sweet tastes and 18% THC on the high end make Sour Pineapple a low-stakes strain for any time of day.

Sour Pineapple’s thick buds show off a range of muted colors, with broad leaves that are dark forest green and moderate trichomes. It’s a modest-looking plant, to be sure. The effects and flavors aren’t overwhelming, either, giving expert and novice users a break from the heavy-hitters. If you feel like some strains relax you “too much,” Sour Pineapple may be the strain for you.

Its flavors burst in juicy, multi-faceted fruit tastes that include pineapple on the initial smoke and sour lime on the aftertaste. The high starts off as a mid-level cerebral rush, clear headed feelings that help you focus and stay active during the day, and a boost of mental and physical energy. Sour Pineapple is nowhere near strong enough to knock you out, which could be a good thing! Depends on what you need.

Unlike some of the stronger strains, Sour Pineapple can’t substitute for pain relief or medications (we don’t recommend dropping medications anyway on ANY strain without talking to your doctor first). It can offer mild relief however for those that suffer from stress, low-energy and fatigue, or depression. It’s particularly effective for those suffering from seizure disorders, as its focusing boost of energy has been known to level out its users and protect against spikes in brain activity.

If you live in the Washington/Oregon area, Sour Pineapple may provide a dose of mild relief or even a medicinal advantage to treat your seizure disorder. The aroma favors a dank spectrum of pungent flavors but the taste is sweet, pineappley, and altogether very pleasant. Some users report dry eyes, but that’s common to some extent on any strain.

If you find yourself wanting to dip your toes in the water of stress-relieving cannabis but have been worried about the intensity, sedation, or a seizure condition, Sour Pineapple is a great strain to find your legs on. Not every strain has to break the THC bank – even expert users can take solace from not blowing their brains out on what’s supposed to be a relaxing day. Mid-afternoon highs don’t get much more laid back than this.
