Poon Tang Pie is a modern hybrid cannabis strain derived from the genetic crossing of Grape Pie and Papaya. This cultivar is established as a moderate-difficulty plant that performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this variety, which reaches maturity after a 63-day flowering period. Its notable genetic legacy includes the development of offspring such as Cosmic Cream Pie and a cross with Sour Papaya.
The chemical profile of this strain is defined by a complex arrangement of terpenes, led by dominant myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene. This primary trio is rounded out by a secondary and tertiary base consisting of guaiol, linalool, pinene, beta-pinene, humulene, nerolidol, caryophyllene-oxide, bisabolol, eucalyptol, valencene, ocimene, gamma-terpinene, camphene, and alpha-terpinene. This multifaceted terpene array dictates the sensory experience, providing a distinct aromatic and flavor profile characteristic of its lineage.
As a THC-dominant variety, Poon Tang Pie is primarily utilized to facilitate feelings of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These reported effects make the strain a functional option for users seeking assistance with the management of stress, pain, or difficulties with sleep. Through its balanced cannabinoid expression and specific terpene composition, the strain serves as a consistent choice for individuals requiring relief throughout the day or in the evening hours.

Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
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
