The Scoop
When Seth Rogen and James Franco fired up Sony’s 2008 cult classic – Pineapple Express Strain – it cultivated a fictitious star-crossed strain that first blazed its way into theaters … then dispensaries.
Over the past 8 years, cultivators and breeders alike have sought to procreate the Holy Grail of Hollywood. Crossing Trainwreck & Hawaiian, the most pervasive cut of the Sativa-heavy Pineapple Express, for their own amusement.
Equal parts Trainwreck and Hawaiian, with the occasional Sour Diesel cut thrown in for good measure, most versions of Pineapple Express weed strain will likely retain their own unique characteristics.
Uplifting, energetic effects. Recommended for anxiety, migraines and chronic stress. A perfect early morning surf strain, the Pineapple Express weed strain high inspires most. Similar to a cup of high-octane coffee, this genetic mashup makes a great wake and bake cheerleader.
We’ve covered its lore and namesake, and with great renown comes great risk. If a grower has an uppity, Hawaiian strain, he’ll market and sell it as Pineapple Express weed strain for obvious reasons. Unfortunately, this means no cut of Pineapple Express will be the same as the other. On the bright side, odds are, if the grower knows what’s good for him, he won’t name this baby after Hollywood’s most legendary stoners if he knows what’s good for him.

First time I tried Pineapple Express I wasn’t very impressed. I enjoyed the taste and effects but, meh. Well, let me tell you. My opinion of this strain most certainly changed after I ordered from skymall dispensary changed . Great decision on my part. I really enjoyed Pex the second time around. So much so I couldn’t stop smiling for hours 😉 This batch was pretty potent living up to its impressive parentage of Trainwreck X Hawaiian. The taste is fruity and tropical. The aftertaste is most definitely pineapplish. Kinda smells like apples or maybe mangos. Suffice to say it tastes and smells fruity with a little pine mixed in. It made me feel happy and creative. All of my stress quickly melted away. And, the effects lasted a lot longer than most strains. Pineapple Express is a great daytime & socializing strain. The only reason I’m not giving it a 5 is because I wasn’t as impressed with the first batch that I tried.
