Pink Pez Strain Overview
Pink Pez is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its sweet, candy-like aroma and balanced effects. The strain is created from crossing Pez (believed to be a mix of Afghani and Pakistani genetics) with Sour Pink Grapefruit, giving it both its distinctive name and complex terpene profile. The buds are characterized by their dense, round structure with mossy green coloration, light brown pistils, and occasional pink or purple hues enhanced by cooler growing conditions. Pink Pez is often considered a phenotype or selection of the original Pez strain that emphasizes floral-berry sweetness and can display pinkish pistils. The strain has maintained steady popularity in the Pacific Northwest and select U.S. markets since the late 1990s, though it remains somewhat of a connoisseur staple rather than mainstream variety. With THC levels typically ranging from the low to mid-teens up to 27%, it's considered accessible for both novice and experienced consumers. The strain has built a cult following due to its mysterious origins and distinctive traits, often being passed around through clone-only networks in cannabis communities.
