Butter Pop
Also known as: Butter Pop OG
Butter Pop Strain Overview
Butter Pop is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s, though its exact origins remain somewhat obscure within the cannabis breeding community. The strain is believed to have been developed by crossing two popular West Coast varieties, though specific parentage details are not consistently documented across sources. It gained attention primarily through the medical cannabis community in California before spreading to recreational markets in legalized states.
Visually, Butter Pop buds are typically dense and chunky with a structure that leans slightly toward the indica side of its hybrid heritage. The flowers display a vibrant green color palette often accented by deep purple hues that develop under cooler nighttime temperatures during cultivation. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange pistils provide contrasting color accents. The strain's name derives from its distinctive aroma profile that combines buttery, creamy notes with a subtle pop of citrus.
Butter Pop is noted for its balanced effects that many users describe as providing both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation. The strain has developed a reputation among enthusiasts for its smooth smoke and complex flavor profile that evolves throughout the consumption experience. While not among the most widely cultivated commercial strains, Butter Pop maintains a dedicated following in certain regional markets where it is appreciated for its consistent quality and reliable effects.

Butter Pop Strain Growing Information
Butter Pop is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid-October when grown outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation environments, though it thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Butter Pop responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and maintain good air circulation to prevent mold, particularly during the final weeks of flowering when buds become dense and resinous.
