Growing Tips for Golden Pineapple

Golden Pineapple is a strain that takes at least an intermediate-level grower to cultivate. Golden Pineapple marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will need to replicate a steady environment with warm temperatures and consistent humidity. Golden Pineapple cannabis seeds produce plants that are light purple and green, making them as beautiful as they are potent.

If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need consistent temperatures and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the ideal outdoor climate without having to contend with unexpected weather variables — particularly important across many Canadian regions. These plants grow tall and can reach around 3–8 feet tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of less than 8 feet, they will need a lot of vertical room to grow to completion.

The ideal temperature for these plants is around 21–29 degrees Celsius and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 40–60% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but gradually lowering the humidity each week will help this plant thrive. Growing indoors will ensure that moderate humidity levels and temperatures are consistent and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages.

Topping and Low-stress training (LST) methods are the best training techniques for this particular strain of cannabis. If performed correctly and at the right time, these techniques will promote bud production and increase final yields. LST manipulates the plants by tying down the branches to increase the size and density of the buds while allowing them to grow almost naturally. Topping is the best and easiest way to control the plant's height so it can remain manageable. The Golden Pineapple strain requires an 18–20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative growth stage. This strain does require a change to a 12/12 light cycle to induce the flowering stage of growth.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Golden Pineapple strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55–65 days.
• Yields: Indoor yields are around 350 grams per square metre, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 300 grams per plant. Even though the plants grow tall, they have spaced out buds, so the yields are a bit smaller.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers in Canada can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of October, depending on when the seeds were planted.

Golden Pineapple: Spicy Sweet Citrus

The Golden Pineapple cannabis strain terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is myrcene, while pinene and terpinolene are the secondary terpenes.

• Myrcene: Most Dominant - Myrcene is earthy in scent and flavour and found abundantly in cannabis plants.
• Pinene: Pine Needles - Pinene can be found in conifer trees, pine needles, and cannabis plants and is known for its fresh and pine-like fragrance.
• Terpinolene: Lesser Known - Terpinolene has a woody smell that is combined with citrus and floral notes.
