Pineapple Afghan Sky
Also known as: Pineapple Afghan, Pineapple Sky
Pineapple Afghan Sky Strain Overview
Pineapple Afghan Sky is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from classic landrace varieties with more contemporary breeding techniques. The strain was developed by crossing a potent Afghan indica with a tropical sativa, creating a balanced hybrid that offers both physical relaxation and cerebral stimulation. Its name reflects its dual heritage, with 'Pineapple' referencing its fruity sativa characteristics and 'Afghan Sky' alluding to its indica foundation from the mountainous regions of Afghanistan.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance. The flowers are often lime green with occasional purple hues, covered in a generous layer of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating visual contrast. The plant structure tends to be bushy with broad leaves characteristic of indica genetics, though it may exhibit some sativa-like stretching during flowering.
Pineapple Afghan Sky has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its well-rounded effects and appealing flavor profile. While not as widely documented as some mainstream commercial strains, it has developed a following in certain cannabis communities. The strain represents a successful attempt to combine the relaxing body effects of traditional Afghan genetics with the uplifting, creative qualities of tropical sativas, making it suitable for various times of day and activities.

Pineapple Afghan Sky Strain Growing Information
Pineapple Afghan Sky is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain performs well both indoors and outdoors, though it prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with plenty of sunlight when grown outside. Plants tend to reach medium height (1-1.5 meters indoors, 1.5-2 meters outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The strain responds well to organic nutrients and benefits from a gradual flush before harvest to enhance flavor profiles.
