This sativa dominant hybrid strain did not exist until after 2008 when the movie of the same name introduced the Pineapple Express. In that movie one of the famous lines is “Makes me feel like a slab of butter on a big ol pile of flapjacks!” Many growers were inspired by this and it explains why the strain was created.
Those who grow this strain provide ample light to the Pineapple Express as it enters the vegetative stage. This practice leads to the best effects of the famed Pineapple Express.
