Cherry Tart strain guide
Cherry Tart is a hybrid of Cherry Pie and Very Cherry. People know it for a sweet and sour cherry smell with a citrus edge, and reports lean toward an energetic, talkative feel rather than a heavy one.
Where does Cherry Tart come from?
Two strain databases agree on the parents: Cherry Pie and Very Cherry. One strain database and the seed database another database both name 42 as the breeder, while the seed listing also mentions LED Seedz, so the exact origin is not fully settled.
Very Cherry is the less common parent and has no guide here. The name is a fairly obvious nod to the cherry in both parents.
Listings call it a hybrid and split it about evenly between indica and sativa, though one strain database describes the family as leaning indica. Treat the split as a loose label.
What does Cherry Tart smell and taste like?
Descriptions start with cherry, somewhere between sweet pie filling and a sour candy, then add lemon, pine and a little floral note. One strain database also lists berry, earth and spice.
Only one source, one strain database, names a leading terpene: limonene, the bright citrus one. I found no other published terpene results, so the rest of the profile is unknown.
Cherry Tart effects: what people report
People most often describe Cherry Tart as energetic, creative and focused, with some saying it makes them chatty. A few reports are more relaxed, and one reviewer on one strain database found it indica-like and long-lasting.
These are experiences people report, not promises. Dry mouth and dry eyes are the common complaints, and a few reviewers mention feeling anxious. Reviews are few, so the picture is rough.
How strong is Cherry Tart?
Listings put Cherry Tart at about 19% to 21% THC, which is on the moderate-to-high side, with no CBD figure given.
Your own product label matters more than a listing. See our guide to reading cannabis labels for what the numbers mean.
Buying Cherry Tart in Canada
Cherry Tart is not a widely documented name, and several cherry strains sound alike, so check the full strain name on the package before you assume it is this cross.
Look at the THC and CBD figures and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of its fruit smell.
Cherry Tart vs Cherry Pie
Cherry Pie is one of the two parents. It is usually described as the heavier, more relaxing of the pair, with a baked, doughy cherry smell. Cherry Tart brings in Very Cherry and reads as brighter, with more citrus and a livelier, more focused feel in reports. If you want a calmer evening cherry, start with Cherry Pie. If you want a sharper, more upbeat one, try Cherry Tart.
