Strain overview: Thought to be a cross between Trainwreck and Hawaiian, Pineapple Express is an exceptional hybrid strain. Developed by G13 Labs, this flavorful strain exhibits a strong fruity aroma and an energetic, creative high.

Grow techniques: Pineapple Express has multiple phenotypes that grow quite differently. From its shorter indica-dominant phenotypes to its lengthy sativa varieties, Pineapple Express is great option for someone looking to grow something new. Top and crop these plants as they grow into a well-rounded bush, and make sure to support the branches that are not strong enough to support heavy buds. Growing this in soil will help preserve its fruity aroma.
