Cherry Squirt
Also known as: Cherry Squirts
Cherry Squirt Strain Overview
Cherry Squirt is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed through the crossbreeding of Cherry Pie and Sour Diesel. This combination results in a strain that offers both the relaxing, euphoric qualities of its indica-dominant Cherry Pie parent and the energetic, cerebral effects of its sativa-dominant Sour Diesel lineage. The strain first gained popularity in the West Coast cannabis scene during the mid-2010s, particularly in California and Oregon, where it became known for its unique flavor profile and versatile effects.
The physical characteristics of Cherry Squirt include medium-sized, dense buds that exhibit a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues, particularly in cooler growing conditions. The flowers are typically covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature bright orange pistils that contrast with the darker foliage. The strain's name derives from its distinctive aroma and flavor profile, which combines sweet, fruity notes with diesel undertones.
Cherry Squirt is noted for its balanced genetic profile, typically expressing a roughly 50/50 indica-sativa ratio, though individual phenotypes may lean slightly in one direction. The strain has gained recognition among cannabis enthusiasts for its ability to provide both mental stimulation and physical relaxation, making it suitable for various times of day. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Cherry Squirt has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities.

Cherry Squirt Strain Growing Information
Cherry Squirt is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically have a flowering time of 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready by mid to late October 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 growing environments, though it thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to reach a medium height, typically between 100-150 cm indoors and slightly taller outdoors. Cherry Squirt benefits from techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and promote lateral growth.
Special considerations include maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The strain responds well to organic nutrients and prefers a stable pH environment. Some phenotypes may exhibit color changes (purpling) when exposed to cooler temperatures during the flowering phase.
