Pineapple Tree
Also known as: Pineapple Tree OG, Pineapple Tree Kush
What is the Pineapple Tree strain?
Pineapple Tree is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Pineapple Tree is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from California's cannabis breeding scene. The strain was developed by crossing two well-known West Coast varieties: Pineapple Express and Tahoe OG Kush. This genetic combination created a strain that combines the tropical fruit characteristics of Pineapple Express with the potent, relaxing effects of Tahoe OG Kush. The strain gained popularity for its distinctive flavor profile and balanced effects that appeal to both recreational and medicinal users.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, conical buds that are typically medium to large in size. The flowers display a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues that may appear under cooler growing conditions. Pineapple Tree buds are typically covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature bright orange pistils that contrast with the green foliage. The buds have a moderately dense structure that breaks apart easily, revealing a complex aromatic profile upon grinding.
Notable features of Pineapple Tree include its pronounced tropical aroma that combines sweet pineapple notes with earthy, kush undertones. The strain is known for producing moderate to high yields when grown under optimal conditions, making it appealing to cultivators. While not as widely distributed as some mainstream commercial strains, Pineapple Tree has maintained a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its balanced effects and unique flavor profile. The strain's genetics have also been used in subsequent breeding projects to develop new varieties with similar tropical characteristics.

How do you grow Pineapple Tree?
Pineapple Tree is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are typically ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows for better environmental control.
Indoor plants typically reach heights of 100-150 cm (3-5 feet), while outdoor plants can grow taller, reaching 150-200 cm (5-6.5 feet) under optimal conditions. The strain produces moderate to high yields, with indoor growers reporting approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant. Pineapple Tree prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity when grown outdoors.
Special growing considerations include maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to fungal issues in humid conditions. The plants respond well to training techniques such as topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize light exposure and improve yields. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with particular attention needed during the flowering phase when the plants benefit from phosphorus-rich supplements. Growers should monitor pH levels carefully, as the strain can be sensitive to nutrient lockout if pH drifts outside the optimal range of 6.0-6.5 for soil or 5.5-6.0 for hydroponic systems.
