Pine-Sol
Also known as: Pine Sol, Pine-Sol OG
Pine-Sol Strain Overview
Pine-Sol is a hybrid cannabis strain named for its distinctive aroma that closely resembles the popular household cleaning product of the same name. The strain is believed to have originated in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, though its exact genetic origins and breeder remain somewhat obscure in cannabis cultivation circles. It gained popularity among connoisseurs for its unique terpene profile and balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a frosty coating of trichomes and vibrant orange pistils. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to occasional purple hues, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. Pine-Sol's most notable characteristic is its powerful aroma profile that combines sharp pine notes with undertones of lemon and chemical cleaner, creating a scent that is both pungent and memorable. The flavor follows a similar profile, with pine and citrus notes dominating the palate.
While not as widely documented as some mainstream commercial strains, Pine-Sol has developed a dedicated following among users who appreciate its unique sensory experience and balanced effects. The strain's rarity in some markets has contributed to its somewhat elusive reputation, though it can occasionally be found in dispensaries in legal cannabis states, particularly in the Western United States where it first gained recognition.

Pine-Sol Strain Growing Information
Pine-Sol is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid-October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a Mediterranean climate with plenty of sunlight and low humidity. Plants tend to grow to medium height (3-5 feet) with a bushy structure that benefits from pruning and training techniques like topping or SCROG. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding.
