Cherry Street
Also known as: Cherry St.
Cherry Street Strain Overview
Cherry Street is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, particularly in Oregon and Washington. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, but it is generally believed to have emerged in the early 2010s from the vibrant cannabis culture of Portland, Oregon. The name reportedly references an actual street in Portland known for its cherry trees, though this connection remains anecdotal.
Visually, Cherry Street presents with dense, conical buds that display a striking color contrast between deep forest green foliage and vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are typically coated in a generous layer of frosty trichomes, giving them a sparkling appearance. The strain's most distinctive feature is its aromatic profile, which combines fruity sweetness with earthy undertones, creating a complex sensory experience that has contributed to its reputation among connoisseurs.
While not as widely documented as some mainstream commercial strains, Cherry Street has developed a regional following for its balanced effects and unique flavor characteristics. The strain represents an example of the boutique breeding culture that flourished in legalized markets, where local growers developed distinctive varieties tailored to regional preferences. Its genetic stability and consistent performance have made it a reliable choice for both cultivators and consumers in areas where it is available.

Cherry Street Strain Growing Information
Cherry Street is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity during flowering to prevent mold. Cherry Street plants tend to be medium in height, reaching 120-160 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. They respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize light exposure and bud development. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation during flowering and monitoring for common pests, as the dense buds can be susceptible to spider mites and powdery mildew in humid conditions.
