What is the Apple Cider strain?
Apple Cider is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 30.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and apple and earthy flavor profile.
Apple Cider is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (approximately 60% indica/40% sativa) developed by Green Wolf Genetics through crossing Apple Fritter (Lumpy's Cut) with Pure Michigan F2. This strain has gained recognition in the cannabis community for its distinctive apple-forward aroma and robust potency. The strain emerged during the surge of dessert-labeled hybrids in the late 2010s and has been featured on platforms like Leafly and Weedmaps for its multi-layered fragrance and potent effects.
Apple Cider produces thick, dense buds with bright green coloration featuring purple highlights and bright orange pistils. The buds are heavily coated in crystalline trichomes that give them a sparkling appearance, indicative of high potency. The strain's visual appeal includes yellow-orange and purple hues throughout the bud structure, with lime green stripes visible at the base. This attractive appearance, combined with its exceptional terpene profile and potent effects, has made Apple Cider a favorite among both connoisseurs and medicinal users seeking a premium cannabis experience.
