Pink Grapefruit
Also known as: Sweet Pink Grapefruit, SPG
Pink Grapefruit Strain Overview
Pink Grapefruit is a sativa dominant hybrid strain (70% sativa/30% indica) created through crossing the delicious Cindy 99 X Burmese Kush strains, though Pink Grapefruit today may refer to either the original SPG clone, a phenotype of Grapefruit, or a modern seed selection deliberately bred to replicate the same sensory profile. The strain originates from the Vancouver, Canada area, and has a history spanning over 35 years, with the earliest references to a grapefruit-scented clone point to British Columbia and Alberta growers who circulated SPG during the era when coffee-shop style compassion clubs were expanding in Canada.
This bud has fluffy rounded bright neon green nugs with pinkish-red hairs and a coating of pink-tinted frosty white crystal trichomes. Its buds are dense, with a beautiful blend of green leaves and orange pistils. Light green buds, bright orange hairs and a thick coat of shimmering trichomes. The strain is renowned for its exceptional flavor profile, delivering a sweet berry candy taste with a rich sour grapefruit exhale into each and every toke. The aroma is earthy and herbal with a sour grapefruit overtone that's accented by spicy berries and light florals. Pink Grapefruit captured a moment in cannabis when flavor-driven selection started to rival potency as a primary consumer value. The rise of fruit-forward profiles like Pink Grapefruit helped normalize terpene literacy among buyers and budtenders.
