What is the Tampa Crippie strain?
Tampa Crippie is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its body high effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Tampa Crippie is a legendary cannabis strain that emerged in Florida during the early 1990s, specifically around 1993. The strain is believed to be a cross between Chem 91 and Pakistani Blue Landrace, though its exact genetics remain somewhat mysterious and disputed among cultivators. The strain gained its iconic status in Florida's underground cannabis culture, particularly in the Tampa Bay area, where it became synonymous with high-quality, potent cannabis. According to historical accounts, Tampa Crippie was distributed and preserved by passionate cultivators who recognized its exceptional qualities, including its distinctive pine, eucalyptus, and menthol aroma profile. The strain is characterized by its bright green, extremely dense and resinous buds that are so sticky they often adhere to packaging. Tampa Crippie has an indica-leaning hybrid structure with moderate stretch during flowering, typically requiring support due to heavy bud production. The strain's cultural significance extends beyond its effects, as 'Crippy' became a general term in Florida and Hawaii for any high-quality cannabis, though the authentic Tampa Crippie cut represents a specific genetic lineage that predates many modern OG Kush varieties.
