Georgia Pie Strain: Peach Cobbler Genetics, and One Number Everybody Gets Wrong
The Georgia Pie strain is Seed Junky's peach-forward dessert hybrid, and it is one of the few cultivars whose flavour name is not marketing — in aggregate consumer flavour data, peach and apricot score roughly an order of magnitude higher than every other note. It is also carrying a CBD figure that has been repeated across the internet for years and does not survive contact with an actual lab report. It sits at the sweet end of our THCA flower collection.

Georgia Pie Strain Genetics & Lineage
Well documented, with one wrinkle in the grandparent generation.
- Type: Indica-leaning hybrid. 60% indica / 40% sativa is the usual figure, though several sources decline to assign a split at all.
- Ancestry: Gelatti crossed with Kush Mints, specifically Kush Mints #11. Gelatti is Gelato crossed with Biscotti; Kush Mints is Bubba Kush crossed with Animal Mints.
- Breeder: Seed Junky Genetics, run by Anthony Hart, better known as JBeezy — the same operation behind Wedding Cake, Ice Cream Cake and Kush Mints. Marketed and popularised by Cookies.
- THC Levels: Retail lab results observed on live dispensary menus land at 25.5%, 26.07%, 26.41% and a high of 29.34%. Published ranges are wider, but the measured cluster is tight.
- CBD Levels: Negligible — under 0.25% on real panels. See below, because this is where most pages go wrong.
- Descendants: Lemon Cherry Pie is among its children.
One grandparent worth pinning down
Gelatti is sometimes described as OG Biscotti crossed with GSC, and sometimes as Gelato crossed with Biscotti. The better-supported version — backed by the structured genealogy on the main lineage database and by two independent guides — is Gelato × Biscotti. Worth noting that Gelatti itself was never sold as seed or clone, which is part of why Georgia Pie is hard to source authentically.
The CBD number that is simply wrong
You will repeatedly see Georgia Pie listed at 1–3% CBD, sometimes with a note about how unusually high that is for a THC-rich strain. It is not unusually high — it is unsupported. Actual lab results published on retail listings put CBD at 0.05% to 0.22%, and one of the two largest strain databases records it as zero. The 1–3% figure appears to have propagated from a couple of early pages without a source behind it, and every page since has copied it. If you are choosing this strain for a CBD contribution, choose something else.
Is Georgia Pie Top Shelf? An Honest Answer
Yes, and unusually for these guides, without much argument.
Two things separate Georgia Pie from most hyped dessert hybrids. First, the flavour is real and it is specific — the peach and apricot signal in aggregate consumer data is one of the cleanest of any strain, meaning people are tasting the same thing rather than repeating the marketing. Second, and more usefully, the potency is consistent. Where most modern hype strains show a ten- or fifteen-point spread between batches, Georgia Pie's observed retail lab results sit in a narrow 25.5% to 29.34% band. That is a well-stabilised cut behaving predictably, which is exactly what you are paying a premium for and rarely get.
The honest verdict: genuinely top shelf, and one of the few where the batch you buy is likely to resemble the batch someone reviewed. The real problem is not quality — it is availability. Seed Junky and Cookies guard the genetics closely and it was never released as feminized seed, so a lot of what is sold as Georgia Pie is not from the original stock.
Georgia Pie Strain Terpene Profile
Caryophyllene-dominant with limonene second and humulene third — and unlike most strains in this encyclopedia, there is actual aggregate measurement behind that ranking rather than repetition.
The usual caveat still applies to percentages: no lab publishes verified terpene percentages for Georgia Pie. The one source giving numeric ranges cites no lab. The ordering below is well supported; any exact percentage you see quoted for this strain is not.
Terpene Profile — Relative Intensity
Caryophyllene — peppery spice, clearly dominant
Limonene — the citrus brightness over the stone fruit
Humulene — dry hoppy earth in the finish
Linalool — soft floral, just behind humulene
Ranking from aggregate terpene scoring. Not lab percentages — none are published for this strain.
Worth noting that myrcene sits near the bottom here, which is unusual for a strain that reads as relaxing. The relaxation is coming from the caryophyllene-and-linalool side rather than from myrcene sedation, which is a plausible explanation for why it stays clear-headed. For the underlying research, LaVigne and colleagues' paper Cannabis sativa terpenes are cannabimimetic and selectively enhance cannabinoid activity in Scientific Reports is the strongest peer-reviewed reference available.
Appearance
Descriptions split between small tight popcorn nugs and large chunky flowers, which is a grower difference rather than a disagreement about the plant. What is consistent: olive to forest green with clear purple streaking, thin amber-orange pistils, tightly stacked calyxes with very little leaf, and a trichome layer heavy enough that some batches look almost white. The purple tendency is strong — this cut colours up readily, which is a large part of its shelf appeal.
The plant itself stays short indoors, around 80cm, with strong branching and thin-fingered dark leaves.
Aroma and Flavor
This is the strain's whole case, and it delivers.
The jar is warm peach cobbler — sweet ripe stone fruit over buttery pastry dough, with brown sugar and a little baking spice behind it. Underneath sits a creamy gas base and the cool mint-and-earth signature that Kush Mints contributes to everything it touches.
On the inhale it is peach and pastry, smooth and clearly sweet. The exhale turns to gas and earthy mint with a peppery finish, and the stone fruit lingers with a caramelised-sugar edge. A minority of sources describe it as cherry-forward rather than peach-forward; aggregate consumer data does not support that, and peach outscores everything else by a wide margin.
Recreational Effects
Fast up front, grounded in the back, and notably not sedating for an indica-leaning hybrid.
- Quick cerebral lift: Onset is commonly reported within five to ten minutes — euphoric, creative, a little more social and motivated than you would expect.
- Focused at low doses: Several sources report single-task focus before the body half arrives.
- Warm body relaxation: Around the twenty to thirty minute mark, spreading tension release rather than heaviness.
- Tingly: A consistent physical fizz, ranked second in aggregate effect data.
- Aroused: Ranked unusually high in crowd data, as it is for several strains in this family.
- Hungry: Reliable but not overwhelming.

Georgia Pie's peach note comes through strongest in a fresh cone.
Duration runs two to three hours from flower. The useful nuance: sources disagree about whether it is a sleep strain. Grower-focused write-ups say explicitly that it is not — no couch-lock, no heavy sedation. Consumer databases list sleepiness at higher doses. Both are right; it is dose-dependent, and at a moderate dose it stays functional.
Reported side effects are dry mouth — by far the most common — then dry eyes, transient dizziness, and occasional anxiety if you escalate quickly. One source additionally reports headaches. Aggregate crowd data scores all of these as uncharacteristic, which suggests they are dose effects rather than traits.

Growing Georgia Pie
Difficulty ratings genuinely contradict each other — some call it beginner-friendly, one calls it intermediate-to-experienced and explicitly not for beginners. The disagreement is probably about environment rather than the plant.
Flowering runs eight to ten weeks, most commonly eight to nine indoors, with outdoor harvest around mid-October. Yields of roughly 500 g/m² indoors and about 500g per plant outdoors are reported consistently by two independent sources. The plant stays short — around 80cm indoors — with sturdy branching and moderate node spacing, and responds well to topping, low-stress training and a screen.
The one thing everyone agrees on is humidity. These flowers are dense and they trap moisture, so 40–50% relative humidity through flower with strong airflow is not optional. Backing nitrogen off in the final couple of weeks is reported to help trichome and terpene development, and harvest timing genuinely changes the effect — mostly cloudy trichomes give the energetic version, mostly amber gives the sedating one.
Note that authentic stock is hard to come by. Georgia Pie was never released as feminized seed, and the seed sold under the name by various vendors is not Seed Junky's.
Medicinal Benefits
These are uses consumers and patients commonly report, not established clinical outcomes. Individual response varies with dose, tolerance and chemotype.
- Anxiety: The most frequently cited use, at roughly 26% of reports.
- Stress: Around 23%.
- Low mood: Around 18%.
- Physical discomfort: Commonly reported, tied to the grounded body relaxation rather than sedation.
- Appetite and nausea: Reported, consistent with the dessert-hybrid lineage.

Buying Georgia Pie: What Actually Matters
The quality question here is less about batch variance than about whether you are getting the real cut.
- Ignore any CBD claim above 0.5%. If a listing tells you Georgia Pie carries 1–3% CBD, it copied that from another page rather than from its own COA.
- Smell for peach, specifically. Stone fruit over pastry is the signature. Generic sweet-and-gassy is not Georgia Pie.
- Expect consistent potency. This is one of the more predictable premium cuts — mid-to-high 20s. A batch testing in the teens is a flag, not a bargain.
- Ask about the source. The genetics are closely held, so provenance matters more here than with widely-released strains.
We do not currently carry Georgia Pie. The closest thing on our shelf is Dayglow Mousse — the same sweet dessert register with a comparable balanced finish. If you want the gas half of the profile rather than the pastry half, Strawberry Glue is the closer pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Georgia Pie sativa or indica?
Indica-leaning hybrid, most commonly given as 60% indica to 40% sativa. In practice it behaves like a hybrid — the first twenty minutes are cerebral and social, and the indica side shows up afterwards as body relaxation rather than sedation.
What are the effects of Georgia Pie?
A quick euphoric head lift within five to ten minutes, often with a burst of creativity and sociability, followed around the twenty to thirty minute mark by warm spreading body relaxation. Tingling is consistently reported, as is appetite. It runs two to three hours and stays functional at a moderate dose — it only turns sedating if you push it.
What gets you high the longest?
Format matters more than strain. Inhaled flower like Georgia Pie runs roughly two to three hours; edibles and concentrates typically run four to eight because of how the body processes them. Among flower, high-myrcene indicas tend to feel longest — though Georgia Pie is actually low in myrcene, which is part of why it stays clear-headed rather than dragging on.
What strain is Georgia pine?
There is no widely recognised cultivar called Georgia Pine — it is almost always a mistyping or mishearing of Georgia Pie. If you have seen the name on a menu, ask what the genetics are, because it is not a documented strain. Georgia Pie itself is Gelatti crossed with Kush Mints #11.
What strain is Georgia Pie a cross of?
Gelatti crossed with Kush Mints #11. Gelatti is Gelato crossed with Biscotti; Kush Mints is Bubba Kush crossed with Animal Mints. It was bred by Seed Junky Genetics and popularised by Cookies.
How strong is Georgia Pie?
Real dispensary lab results cluster between 25.5% and 29.34% THC — a notably tight band for a modern hype strain. Some databases list it lower, around 20%, but the measured retail figures are consistently in the mid-to-high 20s.
Does Georgia Pie really have 1-3% CBD?
No. That figure is repeated widely and is not supported by any lab data we could find. Actual retail lab results put CBD between 0.05% and 0.22%, and one major database records it as zero. Treat Georgia Pie as a negligible-CBD strain.
What does Georgia Pie taste like?
Warm peach cobbler — ripe stone fruit and buttery pastry with brown sugar, over a creamy gas base and the cool earthy mint from the Kush Mints side. Peach and apricot dominate consumer flavour data by a very wide margin.
Is Georgia Pie the same as Sticky Buns?
Seed Junky's Sticky Buns and Georgia Pie are the same plant — that alias is documented on the main lineage database and on one major strain platform. But be careful: a different, unrelated Sticky Buns also exists from Capulator, a Gorilla Glue and MAC cross with a much funkier, gassier profile. Same name, different plant.
Does Georgia Pie make you sleepy?
Not at a moderate dose. Grower-focused sources describe it explicitly as not a sleep aid — no couch-lock, no heavy sedation. Push the dose or smoke a late-harvest batch and it will tip that way, but the default experience is relaxed and clear.
How long does Georgia Pie flower, and is it hard to grow?
Eight to ten weeks, most often eight to nine indoors, with outdoor harvest around mid-October. Difficulty ratings conflict, but the consistent requirement is 40–50% humidity in flower with strong airflow — the dense buds are mould-prone. Expect around 500 g/m² and a short plant, roughly 80cm indoors.
Can I buy Georgia Pie THCA flower online?
Georgia Pie itself is not currently in our lineup. The closest match at Diesel Hemp is Dayglow Mousse, which shares the sweet dessert profile and balanced finish. It is third-party lab tested, federally compliant under the 2018 Farm Bill, and ships direct with free shipping over $75.
