Pineapple X
Also known as: Pineapple Express X, Pineapple Xpress
Pineapple X Strain Overview
Pineapple X is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its tropical flavor profile and balanced effects. The strain's exact genetic lineage is somewhat debated within the cannabis community, but it is generally believed to be a cross between the classic Pineapple Express (itself a hybrid of Trainwreck and Hawaiian) and an undisclosed sativa-dominant parent, possibly a Haze variety. This combination has resulted in a strain that maintains the distinctive pineapple aroma of its namesake while potentially offering enhanced cerebral effects.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds that are dense and conical in structure, with a coating of amber trichomes that give the flowers a frosty appearance. The coloration ranges from bright lime green to deeper forest green, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. Pineapple X is known for its relatively fast flowering time compared to pure sativa varieties, making it appealing to cultivators seeking a tropical-flavored strain without extended grow cycles.
Notable characteristics include its complex terpene profile that delivers pronounced tropical fruit notes with undertones of citrus and earth. The strain has gained recognition in both medical and recreational cannabis markets for its ability to provide uplifting effects while maintaining functional clarity. However, as with many modern hybrid strains, specific genetic information can vary between different breeders' versions of Pineapple X, leading to some variation in effects and potency across different phenotypes.

Pineapple X Strain Growing Information
Pineapple X is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The strain typically flowers in 8-10 weeks indoors and is 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 plants prefer a warm, Mediterranean-like climate with plenty of sunlight when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation requires good ventilation and humidity control to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible in high humidity environments. Plants typically reach heights of 120-180 cm indoors and can grow taller outdoors, requiring some training or support during flowering. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with particular attention needed during the flowering phase to support bud development.
