Key Lime Pie

Overview

Key Lime Pie is a celebrated phenotype of Girl Scout Cookies, with two reported origins in California: Purple Caper Seeds and Burning Bush Nurseries. It was selected for a tangier, mellower expression of GSC and is known for lime-and-mint flavor and buds that often turn purple. Reported THC commonly falls in the high teens to low 20s. Lineage and origin Because Key Lime Pie is a GSC phenotype rather than a new cross, it shares Girl Scout Cookies' ancestry, generally traced to OG Kush and Durban Poison. Growers chose this particular expression for its distinct citrus character and slightly softer effects. It has since been used in breeding, contributing to strains in the broader Cookies family. Aroma and flavor The aroma mixes lime, mint, and candy with chocolate-cream and tropical hints, plus a faint spice. On the palate it's tangy and sweet, with lime zest on the inhale and a minty, chocolatey exhale. Effects and typical experience Key Lime Pie usually opens with a euphoric, happy mood lift before settling into relaxing body effects. Consumers often describe it as calming and pleasant, and larger doses may drift toward sleepiness. Dry mouth and dry eyes are common side effects. Who it suits and when people use it This strain suits late afternoon and evening, for unwinding, socializing quietly, or enjoying a relaxed meal. People who like GSC but want a more citrus-forward flavor often seek it out. Terpene notes Girl Scout Cookies phenotypes frequently test with caryophyllene, limonene, and humulene or myrcene among their leading terpenes. Limonene supports the citrus brightness, while caryophyllene adds peppery warmth. Growing notes Key Lime Pie is known for developing purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures late in flower. Like other GSC cuts, it produces dense, resinous buds and generally flowers in about nine weeks. Yields can be modest, so growers often value it more for quality than quantity. Similar strains If you like Key Lime Pie, compare it with Girl Scout Cookies, its parent, and with other notable GSC phenotypes such as Thin Mint GSC and Forum Cut, which lean sweeter or mintier. Citrus fans may also enjoy Lemon Tree or Mandarin Cookies for a brighter, more energizing feel. Responsible use Effects vary by batch and person. Start low, give it time to take effect, and never drive after consuming.
