Crippy

Crippy is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 30.0% THC, known for its heavy effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.

The term "Crippy," sometimes spelled "Krippy," has its roots in the cannabis cultures of Florida and Hawaii during the 1980s and 1990s. According to some sources, the original Crippy strain dates back to 1986, cultivated on the island of Kauai in Hawaii. The name "Crippy" itself is believed to have been derived from the term "Da Crip," used in Hawaii to describe high-quality cannabis. As surfers traveled between Hawaii and Florida in the late 1980s, they carried the Crippy strain with them, spreading its fame across the mainland. As Crippy made its way to Florida, it became colloquially known as "Crippy Weed." Over time, "Crippy" evolved from describing a specific strain to a broader term signifying any high-quality cannabis grown with care and expertise, particularly using hydroponic methods. This is the original, real deal pre OG Kush clone from 1986. This cut was originally bred and grown on the island of Kauai. Selected from a 500 seed pheno hunt. Rumor has it that it made its way from Hawaii to Florida via surfers in the late 80's.

Crippy cannabis typically boasts a visually striking appearance. The buds are dense, tightly packed, and covered with a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty, crystalline look. The coloration can range from bright green to deep purple, depending on the specific genetics and growing conditions. One of the most distinctive features of Crippy weed is its complex and potent aroma. Typically, it exudes a blend of earthy, piney, and citrus notes, which can vary based on the strain and cultivation techniques. The flavor profile is equally rich, often offering a smooth, multidimensional taste experience that lingers on the palate. It was recently announced on the Adam Dunn Show The Origins of OG Kush by Matt "Bubba" Barger that he started his OG Kush from a Crippy bag seed. One prominent theory is that Crippy is the parent of OG Kush, a strain renowned for its potent effects and distinctive flavor profile. This theory suggests that the seeds or genetics of OG Kush originated from a Crippy plant, giving rise to one of the most iconic strains in the cannabis world.
