Pineapple Express Autoflower Marijuana Seeds

Pineapple Express marijuana is a hybrid strain that was bred by crossing Trainwreck and Hawaiian. This strain has been in the marijuana community for quite some time now, but it only rose into popularity during the release of the movie starring James Franco and Seth Rogen. That movie had the same name as this strain. It is interesting to note though that this strain had already been a favorite among cannabis fans in the Netherlands a decade before the release of such film. It is a widely accepted notion that if the Dutch says a weed is a winner, then it definitely must be one.

This strain has inherited great genetics from its parents. The result is an offspring that boasts of smooth and sweet smoke that will definitely tempt users for more. Its appearance is as delightful as its name. The flowers of this strain are lean and fluffy. They shine in their bright yellow hues. This strain is perfect for those who have a long and productive day ahead.

What are the Medical Benefits of Pineapple Express

Pineapple Express may give out an impression that it is just for recreational users. This strain, however, is famous in the medical marijuana community as well. It offers truly promising therapeutic effects not just to mental health patients, but also physiologically struggling users. Its relaxing and stimulating head high can be used to mitigate the symptoms associated with stress, anxiety, and depression. The sedating properties of this strain can also be used to alleviate minor inflammations and some bodily aches and pains.

Negative Effects You Can Expect from Pineapple Express

Pineapple Express marijuana may seem like an all-good strain, but users who have low tolerance of high THC contents may need to watch out for its unwanted side effects. This highly potent stain is reported to cause paranoia and anxiety when taken in huge doses. The most common adverse effects of this strain is having dry eyes and cottonmouth. This can be countered by drinking lots of water.

How to Grow Pineapple Express

Pineapple Express marijuana is a moderately easy to grow strain. With its Ruderalis genetics, it does not need a change in the light schedule in order to flower. It blooms on its own, which makes it more convenient for growers. This strain can grow to be a tall plant, so growers are advised to provide for a generous vertical grow space. For the same reason, growers are also advised to top the plant in order to promote good airflow and light among the lower branches. The branches are not strong enough to support its heavy buds so growers must provide for support. When grown indoors, this strain becomes ready for harvest after 9 to 10 weeks of cultivation. When grown outdoors in a moderate to warm environment, this strain can be ripe for harvest by mid October.
