The result: a 60% sativa-dominant hybrid that combines the best of both worlds. The name is a playful nod to American pop culture; the strain itself is a Pyramid Seeds cross. ## American Pie strain: effects The **American Pie effect** is energetic and cerebral in nature — typical of a sativa-dominant hybrid: - **Energetic, clear head effect** — the Power Plant heritage: focus, creativity, an active mood - **Psychedelic note** — an intense, vivid mental experience - **Physical relaxation** — the White Widow heritage: gentle body relaxation without couch-lock - **Ideal for the day** — active, functional, sociable ## Aroma and terpene profile The aroma profile of **American Pie** is complex and layered — an interplay of both parent lines: a woody base from Power Plant, a creamy sweetness from White Widow, with spicy and incense notes in the background. Terpene | Typical impressions | Contribution to the profile **Myrcene** | Earthy, musky, sweet | An earthy base, supports body relaxation **Caryophyllene** | Spicy, peppery, warm | Spicy depth — the Power Plant character **Pinene** | Fresh, pine-like, woody | Woody freshness, supports mental clarity **Limonene** | Citrusy, fruity, sweet | Creamy sweetness — the White Widow heritage ## Growing — indoor and outdoor ### Indoor growing Flowering time **60–65 days** (LED: 53–58 days). Yield: **500 g/m²** standard, up to **800–850 g/1.5 m²** with a 720 W LED. Adapts well to all growing systems — SOG, SCROG, vertical structures. Despite the sativa dominance, the plant stays compact with long, crystal-covered flowers. ### Outdoor growing Harvest in **late September** in the northern hemisphere. **0.5–1 kg** per plant — especially productive outdoors thanks to the Power Plant genetics. Robust and adaptable to a range of climates. ## American Pie vs White Widow: what's the difference? | American Pie | White Widow Fem **Genetics** | Power Plant × WW | Sativa × Indica **Genotype** | 60% sativa | 50% sativa **THC** | 20% | 20–22% **Effect** | Energetic, more cerebral | Balanced, two-phase **Flowering indoor** | 60–65 days | 60 days **Aroma** | Woody, creamy, incense | Earthy, spicy, resinous ## American Pie vs Auto American Pie | American Pie Fem | Auto American Pie **Seed type** | Photoperiod | Autoflowering **THC** | 20% | 19% **Flowering** | 60–65 days (from flip) | 50–55 days (from germination) **Yield indoor (LED)** | 800–850 g/1.5 m² | 700–750 g/1.5 m² **Yield outdoor** | 0.5–1 kg/plant | 70–220 g/plant **Multiple harvests/year** | Limited | ✅ Yes ## When to choose Fem, when Auto?
