Editorial profile

Duende in detail

Origin & classification

The name Duende refers to a strain also known as Pie Face OG or Pie Face OG Kush. The source attributes it to Archive Seed Bank and names Cherry Pie and Face Off OG as parents. A ratio of approximately 60 percent indica to 40 percent sativa is documented. Since the breeder is missing from the structured dataset, this classification should be checked again before being transferred to the master data.

Aroma & flavour

According to the source description, the cross combines a sweet, fruity heritage with deeper physical relaxation and a lighter cerebral uplift. However, the separately recorded aroma data is narrower: it primarily lists earth, herbs and wood. Specific fruit notes are not identified. The public text therefore remains with the reliable earthy, herbal and woody direction instead of deriving a specific fruit aroma from the lineage.

Terpene profile

Myrcene, limonene and caryophyllene are documented as terpenes. They may plausibly accompany the earthy, fresher and spicy direction, but the data contains no proportions. Composition and perception may also vary between phenotypes, batches and processing methods. A more detailed flavour profile would be speculative without additional sources.

Effect tendency

Euphoria and physical relaxation are the primary effects. The continuous description refers to a relaxing but not necessarily sedating experience with a slight mental uplift. “Sleepy” also appears in the structured effects field. These details do not necessarily contradict one another completely, but may reflect different intensities, timings or individual reactions. Drowsiness is therefore presented as a possible expression rather than a fixed characteristic.

Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance

The recorded THC value of 19 percent and CBD value of one percent come only from the structured fields and are not explained in the actual source description. Such laboratory values would in any case depend on the batch and phenotype. Until a verifiable primary source is available, they should not be used as precise figures in the public portrait.

Additional classification

The dataset contains no reliable information on growth, flowering time, yield or specific flower characteristics. Duende can therefore be described responsibly primarily through its synonyms, the Cherry Pie × Face Off OG cross, its indica-dominant classification and its earthy-woody profile. Further cultivation claims or medical attributions would exceed the scope of the available sources.
