Hybrid strainCrimson Pie
Crimson Pie combines Cherry Pie with Red Pop. The balanced hybrid is described as having a sweet strawberry-cherry aroma, striking appearance and a balanced, euphoric effect. The source cites 20 to 24 percent THC, although such values can vary between phenotypes and batches. Information on terpenes, CBD, breeder, flowering time, growth and yield is unavailable.

Editorial profile
Crimson Pie in detail
Origin & classification
Cherry Pie and Red Pop form the documented lineage of Crimson Pie. The strain is described as a balanced hybrid, meaning that no explicit dominance of either side is indicated. The name combines the strong red color impression of “Crimson” with the “Pie” reference of the Cherry Pie parent. The source highlights its striking appearance, but provides no specific information on flower color, plant structure or other visible characteristics.
Aroma & flavor
From a sensory perspective, a sweet combination of strawberry and cherry takes center stage. This makes the structured aroma category “sweet” noticeably too limited: Both fruits are explicitly named in the source description and should be added. Further notes such as dough, earth, spice or citrus are not documented. A terpene profile is also unavailable. The fruity aroma therefore cannot reliably be used to infer specific terpenes.
Terpene profile
The effects are briefly characterized as balanced and euphoric. This suggests an elevated mood without documenting a detailed progression over time. Whether the experience is more active, physically relaxing, creative, focused or sleepy remains open in the available data. Likewise, “balanced” should not be confused with a guaranteed mild intensity: Here, the term describes the reported effect profile or hybrid category, not an identical response for everyone.
Effect tendency
For Crimson Pie, the source cites 20 to 24 percent THC. This range identifies the documented samples as comparatively THC-rich. However, the values can be influenced by phenotype, cultivation conditions, maturity, processing, storage and laboratory method. No information on CBD or other cannabinoids is available. It is therefore not possible to provide an exact CBD value or a fixed THC-CBD ratio.
Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance
Breeder, flowering time, yield and specific growth characteristics are also not documented. Such traits should not be inferred from the parent names alone. The reliable profile therefore remains clearly defined: Crimson Pie is the Cherry Pie × Red Pop cross, has a sweet strawberry-cherry aroma, is described visually as striking and in terms of its effects as balanced and euphoric, and reaches 20 to 24 percent THC according to the source, depending on the batch. Further statements about cultivation or the progression of effects would require additional coherent sources.
