If you’re a fan of fruity, tart, and sweet treats, this combination of candy and cobbler flavors in cannabis form will have your mouth watering. Z Pie is an increasingly popular strain not only for these delightful flavors but also for the jolt of energy some consumers say it may provide. Could Z Pie be your new favorite strain? The only way to find out is to give it a try.
The effects: What to expect when you try Z Pie
Consumers often report Z Pie to have energizing, uplifting effects that spark inspiration and creativity. You may experience waves of euphoria and a burst of energy combined with feelings of ease and mental relaxation. You may get the urge to raid your snack cabinet, too.
When it comes to therapeutic potential, consumers often select Z Pie to help soothe their bodies. Thanks to its ability to elevate mood, Z Pie may also be a good strain for consumers who want to manage stress or turn a frown upside down.
Like other varieties of cannabis, consuming too much of Z Pie may come with unwanted side effects. The most commonly reported side effects from this strain include dry mouth, dry eyes, and feelings of dizziness or imbalance.
If you experience these side effects, especially dizziness, take a seat in a calm, quiet area. It may also help to have a glass of water handy to combat the cottonmouth and eye drops to relieve dry eyes. These side effects should subside in time, so just refrain from consuming more until you begin to feel better.
Is Z Pie indica or sativa?
Z Pie is a hybrid strain with relatively balanced effects. Its parent strains are Zkittles (sometimes called The Original Z) and Georgia Pie.
Zkittles is an Indica-dominant hybrid characterized by moderate THC potency and elevated CBG content, which results in a laid-back, happy high that often brings on a case of the munchies just like its progeny.
Georgia Pie is an Indica-dominant hybrid with a similarly moderate THC content that provides a soothing body high and relaxing sensations. Consumers often choose Georgia Pie to address chronic pain or manage stress and anxiety.
In Z Pie, these parent strains combine to deliver a different experience that is much more energizing and inspiring. You can expect the same happy contentment, just with more pep in your step.
Z Pie cannabinoid profile
Z Pie ranges from a moderately potent to very potent strain, often testing between 20% and 30% THC content. Expect that classic THC-induced high with this strain, so if you have a high tolerance, Z Pie won’t let you down. New and low-tolerance consumers may still opt to try Z Pie, but we recommend starting with a small amount first.
This strain also contains very low amounts of Cannabidiol (CBD). That means the potent THC content is front and center. For some people, that’s awesome. For others, that may make Z Pie a little overwhelming.
Z Pie often contains heightened levels of CBG, sometimes up to 2%, which is significant for the minor cannabinoid. That likely contributes to the euphoric feelings that many consumers report.
Terpene profile, flavor, and aroma
Z Pie brings a lovely bouquet of terpenes that provide an earthy, sweet, tart flavor reminiscent of homemade baked goods and sweets. Limonene generally leads the way as the dominant terpene in this strain, along with caryophyllene, linalool, and myrcene. It also contains significant amounts of humulene and pinene, though these are typically less prominent than the others.
Here’s a closer look at what each brings to the table:
- Limonene: Limonene has a citrusy, lemony, and fresh scent and flavor. This terpene may contribute to an elevated mood, stress relief, and increased focus. Some cannabis consumers seek out strains high in limonene for their potential to promote a positive outlook and energizing effects.
- Caryophyllene: With its peppery, spicy, and woody aroma, caryophyllene is easily recognizable. It may contribute to anxiety and pain relief. Interestingly, caryophyllene is the only known terpene that can interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system, potentially enhancing its therapeutic effects.
- Linalool: Linalool is characterized by its floral, lavender-like, and slightly sweet scent and flavor. It may contribute to relaxation, stress relief, and a more restful sleep. This terpene reportedly has anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) and sedative effects. Many users find strains rich in linalool particularly soothing and helpful for unwinding at the end of the day.
- Myrcene: Myrcene has an earthy, musky, and slightly fruity profile. It may contribute to relaxation, pain relief, and sedative-like feelings in consumers. This terpene is reportedly known for its anti-inflammatory and muscle-relaxing properties. Some consumers believe that myrcene may enhance the effects of THC, potentially intensifying the overall cannabis experience.
- Humulene: Humulene offers a woody, earthy, and hoppy scent and flavor. It may contribute to appetite suppression and anti-inflammatory effects. Some cannabis users seek out humulene-rich strains for their potential to curb hunger cravings and provide a subtle, earthy aroma.
- Pinene: Pinene is easily identified by its pine-like, fresh, and slightly woody aroma. It may contribute to improved alertness, memory retention, and respiratory function in cannabis consumers. Some users find that pinene-rich strains help counteract the short-term memory impairment sometimes associated with THC consumption.
