Pie of the Tiger is a modern hybrid whose specific genetic origins remain largely undocumented. While the lineage is recorded as descending from Pie 95, breeders have not publicly confirmed the complete parental cross or the formal history of the strain’s development. Consequently, the backstory behind the strain’s creation remains obscure, reflecting a common trend among contemporary hybrids where the full breeding record is incomplete or not publicly disclosed.
The chemical expression of this strain is defined by a distinct complex of terpenes. It is characterized by a dominant presence of caryophyllene, followed by humulene, limonene, bisabolol, linalool, beta-pinene, myrcene, pinene, caryophyllene-oxide, and terpinolene. Because THC content is based on averaged and published figures, the strain exhibits an estimated THC concentration of 18.5 percent with an estimated 0 percent CBD. This chemical composition contributes to a sensory profile that is rooted in these specific chemical constituents rather than subjective claims of flavor.
Users of Pie of the Tiger typically report feelings of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These effects are often utilized to assist with the management of stress, pain, and sleep concerns. Cultivators who work with this strain should expect a flowering cycle of 70 days, with the plant categorized as moderate in terms of cultivation difficulty. It is well-suited for both indoor and outdoor environments and is noted for producing a high yield. At this time, no notable offspring have been recorded in connection with this variety.

●●○○
Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
PMC11060501: opioid-independent antinociception; appetite suppression (anorectic); NF-κB dual-pathway synergy with caryophyllene.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy
anytimeuplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
