Peanut Butter Pie strain guide
Peanut Butter Pie is an indica-leaning hybrid, most often listed as a cross of Georgia Pie and Peanut Butter Breath. It smells the way the name suggests: nutty and buttery, with hints of chocolate and fruit. People mostly describe it as relaxed and hungry.
Where does Peanut Butter Pie come from?
The cross given most often is Georgia Pie crossed with Peanut Butter Breath, usually listed at around 70% indica. One strain database credits that version to Good Day Farm.
Other versions are out there. One account names Stuffed French Toast #13 crossed with Georgia Pie, and another lists Georgia Pie with French Toast. Georgia Pie shows up in every account, but the other parent depends on who grew it.
What does Peanut Butter Pie smell and taste like?
The smell people mention first is peanut butter: nutty, buttery and a little earthy. Some batches add chocolate, and a few reviews pick up cherry or lemon on top.
Caryophyllene usually leads its terpene listings, followed by limonene and pinene. Caryophyllene gives a peppery, warm base, limonene a light citrus lift and pinene a woody edge. The taste is nutty and earthy, with a smooth, buttery finish.
Peanut Butter Pie effects: what people report
People most often describe Peanut Butter Pie as relaxed, with euphoric and uplifted coming up too. Sleepy and hungry are common in reviews, so many people save it for later in the day.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance. Dry mouth, dry eyes and the odd headache are the usual complaints.
How strong is Peanut Butter Pie?
Peanut Butter Pie is a high-THC strain. Listings put it from about 27% to 31% THC, with very little CBD.
That's strong for anyone, and a lot for a beginner. Start with a small amount and give it time before having more. Check the THC and CBD on your label, since the batch in your hand matters more than the strain name.
Buying Peanut Butter Pie in Canada
Since the second parent varies, look for the producer and any lineage on the package. Don't mix it up with Peanut Butter Breath or Peanut Butter Cookies, which are separate strains with similar names.
Check the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of the nutty smell.
Peanut Butter Pie vs Peanut Butter Breath
Peanut Butter Breath is the parent in the most common account of Peanut Butter Pie, and it's where the nutty smell comes from. Peanut Butter Breath is earthy and savoury, a Do-Si-Dos and Mendo Breath cross that people describe as relaxed with a big appetite kick. Peanut Butter Pie adds Georgia Pie's sweeter, dessert side, so it reads more like chocolate and pastry, and it's usually listed a few points higher in THC. If you want the original nutty profile, start with Peanut Butter Breath. If sweeter sounds better, try Peanut Butter Pie.
