Cherry Pie Fast by Advanced Seeds – Fast-Flowering Feminized Cannabis Seeds with Fruity Aroma and 21% THC

Cherry Pie Fast by Advanced Seeds is a high-performance feminized cannabis strain that delivers dense, resinous buds with a mouthwatering cherry-pie aroma and a powerful 21% THC punch—all in just 50–55 days of flowering.

Still stuck with slow-growing strains that take forever to harvest? You’re not alone. Most classic photoperiods demand 9–12 weeks in bloom, tying up your space and energy with no return. And if you’re growing outdoors, waiting until October means risking mold, rain, and early frosts.

Now imagine harvesting top-shelf, trichome-covered buds by early September—without sacrificing flavor, potency, or yield. No more seasonal stress, no more wasted cycles. Just faster results, better control, and more room to grow your next batch.

With Cherry Pie Fast, you get all the legendary qualities of Cherry Pie—fruity terps, thick colas, and balanced effects—but optimized for speed and resilience. It’s not just faster; it’s smarter growing.

What It Feels Like to Harvest Premium Buds in Weeks, Not Months

From the first puff, you’ll taste why this strain stands out: a rich blend of sweet cherries, tangy berries, and a subtle earthy backbone that lingers on the palate. The buds explode with color—deep purples from its Grand Daddy Purple heritage, highlighted by fiery orange pistils and a thick layer of frosty trichomes.

But it’s not just about looks and flavor. This is a strain that performs. Indoors, it stays compact at 0.70–0.90 m (2.30–2.95 ft), making it perfect for stealth grows, while still packing up to 550 g/m² (1.94 oz/ft²). Outdoors, it stretches to 1.8–2.4 m (5.91–7.87 ft), producing massive yields of 500–550 g (17.64–19.40 oz) per plant.

And the high? Balanced and smooth. A euphoric head rush kicks in first, sharpening focus and lifting mood—perfect for creative sessions or social hangs. Then comes a gentle body relaxation that unwinds tension without locking you to the couch. It’s the ideal evening strain for when you want to chill, not crash.

How to Maximize Yield, Flavor, and Harvest Speed

Cherry Pie Fast isn’t just bred for speed—it’s built for success. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned grower, these tips will help you squeeze every bit of potential from your plants.

• Start strong: Use SeedBooster Plus germination stimulator to boost root development and reduce early stress.
• Train gently: Apply low-stress training (LST) early to open up the canopy—avoid topping, as it can stress fast-flowering plants.
• Optimize light: Indoors, use full-spectrum LEDs or HPS lights on a 18/6 schedule to maximize resin and terpene production.
• Control humidity: Keep RH at 40–50% during flowering to prevent mold, especially in dense buds.
• Boost finish: Add Bloom Ph Perfect Advanced Nutrients in late flowering to enhance bud density and flavor.
• Harvest at peak: Look for milky-to-amber trichomes for a balanced effect, and cure buds for 14–21 days to lock in aroma.
• Go organic: Pair with Pro Organic Grow (BioThrive Grow) for a cleaner, more natural taste.

Advantages and Benefits in Your Growing Routine

• Because it flowers in just 50–55 days, you can run multiple indoor cycles per year, which means more harvests and better ROI.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I first grew Cherry Pie Fast last summer in my outdoor setup near Murcia. I was skeptical—can a fast version really match the original? But from week one, it impressed me. It grew fast, yes, but also smart: tight internodes, strong branches, and a smell that filled the garden with sweet cherries at dusk.

I didn’t top it—just used light LST to spread the canopy. By week 6, the buds were swelling hard. I harvested on September 5th, two weeks earlier than my Amnesia plants. The yield? 520 grams from a single plant. The high was smooth—creative at first, then deeply relaxing. Perfect for unwinding after a long day.

One tip: don’t rush the cure. I dried slowly at 18°C (64.4°F) and 55% RH, then cured for 18 days. The flavor exploded—way better than any fast strain I’ve tried. If you want quality without the wait, this is your seed.
