It should be noted that I consumed this plant-based material with my volcano vaporizer. I didn't use a shitty pipe when judging a strain so popular they made a movie about it. Don't believe the hype! In a lot of ways this strain is awful. Yes, a mediocre stoner movie was made about it and yes it does taste really good. If I rated this strain based on taste alone, it'd be 5/5. However that would disregard all of the shit you have to deal with to have that taste; personally, I'd sooner just eat real pineapple or find another strain. Even this strain's VAPOR is harsh. I tried to give it a chance a good 4 separate occasions before harshly reviewing it because like White Widow, it's one of those "untouchable" strains that everyone is supposed to like. On 4 separate occasions I loaded my volcano up and filled the bag up to different volumes thinking perhaps if it wasn't as much it would be more smooth. NOPE. Each time I coughed and coughed and coughed until I was hyperventilating and my heart was about 130 BPM presumably due to lack of oxygen. Smoke/Vapor is THICK and COARSE on the throat. It is also very dense, leading to an inability to "keep the hit down" if you know what I mean. Coughing fits that lasted 20 minutes from a fucking top of the line vaporizer? What's wrong here? Thankfully I never threw up, although came quite close. This also means it's horrible for people with nausea. You will cough until you puke. Period. Helped with pain significantly, however the trade off was 3 hour panic attacks that would not go away. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. ... AVOID!!!

Feels too much like a sativa. While it smells and looks awesome, the three different times I tried it, I felt there was something missing... not a potent specimen. The movie gave her a lot of hype that did not deliver for me.

After all of the hype I expected a bit more. It also causes a stuffy nose and sinus pressure.

A go-to sativa for an enjoyable, uplifted experience. I like to smoke this in the evening and play video games or watch the strain's namesake movie. I sometimes have experienced flashbacks of fond childhood memories while using this strain.

Not the dankest looking strain... light green leaves.. tropical look... you can tell it's a hawaiian hybrid... Smells amazing like pineapples.. Tastes tropical, much better than its parents.. High is cerebral and enrgetic.. Good weed.

Sweet, smooth pineapple/pine flavor and smell. Great texture and smooth hit. The effects for me are energetic in the head and effortlessly relaxed in the body which is very unique. My level of anxiety, stress (PTSD), fatigue, depression, and lack of appetite dramatically decreased. I greatly appreciate the medicinal effects of the strain. Pineapple Express is in my top 5 out of my top ten list.

Most of the time you'll get some hyped up no name strain passed off as Pineapple Express due to the sheer popularity of the movie. If you happen to stumble across the real deal however.. it's some mighty fine juju.
