Ice Cream Cake Strain Info

Indica-dominant varieties are always in demand thanks to their uncommon therapeutic value, and this 30% Sativa / 70% Indica hybrid is no exception. Ice Cream Cake is a prime example of what a perfect medicinal strain should be like – fast-growing and high-yielding, adaptable to any conditions and skill level, and producing a smoke that makes you relaxed and happy. Simply load up on snacks, turn on the TV, and let Ice Cream Cake turn your couch into a perfect vacation getaway.

Genetics

The family tree of Ice Cream Cake contains two modern dessert-like strains: Gelato #33 and Wedding Cake. The former is a cross of Sunset Sherbet and the thin-mint GSC phenotype. The latter’s parents are Triangle Kush and Animal Mints.

Flowering Time

A short flowering time of only 55-65 days from the start of 12/12 is one of Ice Cream Cake’s major attractions. It displays the same speed outdoors, where the buds can reach their peak potential as early as September.

Yields

There’s no trade-off between speed and productivity in the case of Ice Cream Cake, as the strain produces around 600-700g/m² (2-2.3oz/ft²) indoors and a jaw-dropping 1,500-2,000g (3.3-4.4lb) per plant outdoors.

Effects

When consumed in moderation, Ice Cream Cake’s effects can be calming and relaxing, offering both a tingling body buzz and a happy cerebral stimulation. However, one toke too many will likely result in your eyelids getting blissfully heavy and your thoughts turning into a fuzzy blur of sweet drowsiness.

Medical Properties

Praised as a potent nighttime medicine, Ice Cream Cake is often used as a sleep aid but is also a powerful muscle relaxant and appetite stimulant. Patients also use this weed’s mood-enhancing properties against anxiety and stress, while the physical side of the effects may take care of pain of various origins.

THC Levels

With a THC content of 20-25%, Ice Cream Cake offers a very satisfying smoke for daily recreational users and medical patients with chronic conditions; however, it should be approached with caution by more casual or inexperienced smokers.

Smell and Taste

The aroma emitted by Ice Cream Cake buds is pungent and strong, sometimes resembling cured cheese in its eye-watering intensity. When revealed in the taste of the smoke, the terpene profile is more mellow and nuanced and includes delightful low-key undertones of earth and nuts.

Grow Tips

Ice Cream Cake produces long and bloated yet super dense colas, featuring a towering central one and several side branches with sizable secondary buds. Its height indoors is 90-110cm (3’-3’8”) when left untrained, while outdoors, the plants get considerably taller – up to 150-200cm (5’-6’8”).

• Use the sea-of-green method (SOG) to maximize yields.
• Defoliate and prune sparingly, but ‘lollipop’ the lower growth.
• Enhance the smoke’s flavor profile through organic cultivation.
