Cherry Pie OG S1 is a self of one of the house favorites at Ethos Genetics: Cherry Pie OG crossed with itself to capture its rich, robust flavor in feminized form. The result is a vigorous photoperiod hybrid with strong roots, big bracts and a terpene profile that reads like cherry whiskey poured over pine and gas.
The Cherry Pie OG S1 strain is also a looker. Late in flower, especially in cooler rooms, the spongy buds pick up purple and red hues that make the harvest as colorful as it is aromatic. Ethos Genetics lists a TAC of 22-25% for this line.
Among Ethos seeds, this is a solid pick for growers who want a dependable plant with a classic dessert-and-fuel profile. It is rated suitable for every level and delivers a high yield in tents, greenhouses and outdoor gardens.
Expect a flowering window of about 63-70 days and a plant that likes to go vertical.
Lineage and Breeding
Cherry Pie OG blends the fruit-forward Cherry Pie family with OG structure and fuel. By selfing a chosen Cherry Pie OG mother, Ethos Genetics kept the line close to the original rather than introducing a new outside parent. That approach tends to keep the core flavor and structure intact while still offering some variation for pheno hunters.
The S1 tag means a selfed feminized line: a selected female was reversed and used to pollinate herself. All seeds are feminized, and the offspring express traits from a single parent plant. For Ethos cannabis fans who want the essence of Cherry Pie OG without a clone, an S1 is the most direct route.
Aroma, Flavor and Effect
The nose is unmistakable: dark cherry whiskey on top, a cool layer of pine in the middle and a clear thread of gas underneath. The flavor follows the aroma closely, rich and robust, with sweetness on the inhale and a resinous, fuel-tinged exhale. The terpene families listed for the line are cherry, gassy, pine and whiskey.
The effect sits in classic hybrid territory. A warm, cheerful head feel arrives first, then gives way to a relaxed, comfortable body without tipping into heaviness. It suits laid-back evenings, good food and good company.
Growing Cherry Pie OG S1 Indoors and Outdoors
Cherry Pie OG S1 likes to stretch. With medium to long internodes and a medium to tall frame, she benefits from topping early and training the branches flat with LST or a SCROG net. That keeps the canopy level, opens up the interior to light and improves airflow around the spongy flowers.
Her strong root system and vigor make her forgiving, which is why she is rated for beginners as well as experienced growers. To bring out the purple and red tones late in bloom, many growers drop night temperatures a few degrees in the final two weeks. Big bracts and a healthy resin layer make trimming straightforward.
Outdoors and in greenhouses she grows tall and productive, with a high yield potential. Give her room to stretch, provide support for the upper branches, and watch humidity during the final weeks of the 63-70 day bloom.
