Choke Berry
Also known as: Chokeberry, Choke Berry Kush
Choke Berry Strain Overview
Choke Berry is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained attention for its unique combination of effects and flavor profile. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, but it appears to have emerged in the early 2010s as part of the berry-flavored cannabis trend. The name likely references both its berry characteristics and the sensation some users report of a mild, pleasant throat sensation during inhalation.
Visually, Choke Berry typically produces dense, conical buds with a structure that leans slightly toward its indica heritage. The flowers display deep purple hues interwoven with vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes that gives them a frosted appearance. The coloration is particularly pronounced when grown in cooler temperatures during the flowering phase. The strain's leaves often show dark green to purple shades, contributing to its distinctive aesthetic appeal.
Choke Berry is noted for its complex aromatic profile that combines sweet berry notes with earthy undertones and subtle diesel accents. The strain has gained a following among users seeking balanced effects that provide both mental stimulation and physical relaxation. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Choke Berry has maintained a consistent presence in certain regional markets and among enthusiasts of berry-flavored varieties.

Choke Berry Strain Growing Information
Choke Berry is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. 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 but thrives in controlled environments where temperature can be managed to enhance coloration. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Choke Berry responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and maintain good air circulation to prevent mold, particularly in dense buds. The strain benefits from a slight temperature drop during the final weeks of flowering to encourage purple pigmentation.
