Growing

While it's not the easiest strain in our lineup. With basic growing knowledge, you will find great results with our Ice Cream Cake Seeds. A reliable strain with satisfying results.

Indoor
When growing Ice Cream Cake feminized indoors, you can expect a compact and busy plant. She leans quite a bit into her Indica genetics. But technically it's still a hybrid, so she can still stretch if kept in a vegetative stage. When grown with regular schedules, she will finish around 90 to 130 cm in height indoors. This makes her suitable for tents and rooms with limited height.

Flowering time is around 8 to 9 weeks. You can expect beautiful, dense buds. Heavily coated with trichomes, giving it a frosty look. She has quite the odor during flowering; we highly recommend good ventilation and filters to control the smell.

Outdoor
Ice Cream Cake feminized performs best in warmer climates. She likes dry and sunny climates; having lower humidity levels helps with preventing mold on her juicy buds during the flowering stage.

Plants naturally grow larger in a larger space, so you can expect an even higher yield growing outdoors compared to indoors. You can expect to be able to harvest around early September or in October.

Fungal Resistance

The Ice Cream Cake is seasonably resistant to mold and pests. The tricky part is when it starts to flower, the dense buds full of resin can be an issue if you don't have good airflow with a controlled humidity. The dense buds can mold fairly easily if you don't keep the humidity below 45% during the late flowering stage. When growing indoors, we strongly advise great airflow combined with humidity control. Especially during the late flowering stage to avoid molding.

Flowering Time

Indoors
Flowering takes between 8 and 9 weeks. You expect a slow start, but during the final weeks, you will see the buds bloom into thick coated buds.

Outdoors
Ice cream cake plants usually finish by late September or early October. Depending on your situation and phenotypes, it can take a week or two extra to fully flower.

Yield

Indoor
When growing indoors under strong lighting with some love and care, you can expect 450-550 g/m² of dense buds full of frosty resin.

Outdoor
Growing outdoors gives her the room to stretch, which increases her potential. You can expect yields of 700 grams or more per plant.

Plant height & structure

This strain will grow into a dense and compact plant with large buds. It's a sturdy plant that grows thick side branches naturally, so you don't have to worry about its heavy flowers toppling over. The thick and dense buds will be covered in trichomes, giving them a frosty look.

It can develop beautiful purple hues when exposed to cooler night temperatures. Under normal circumstances, not keeping it in a vegetative stage, she will stay compact. This makes her an easy strain to manage indoors.

Training

If you are planning to train your plant for better results, this strain is very beneficial to train. Especially when done correctly and in early vegetative stages. It's very responsive to training methods, especially to low stress training (LST). This will allow your plant more room to develop the dense buds. At the same time, it also reduces the risk of mold forming on your buds. It is also low risk, making it suitable for beginners to dabble in plant training.

Smell, Taste & Effect

The smell starts mild but will become increasingly intense during flowering. Its strong smell lingers; if that's an issue, having proper odor control will be necessary. You expect some vanilla notes, which will remind you why it's called the Ice Cream Cake. Underneath the pleasant smell, you will find a mildly earthy tone. After drying, the taste will be more rounded. Smooth, sweet, and it can even leave a creamy sensation in your mouth. The sensation and aftertaste are often compared to melted ice cream.

The effects will deliver deep bodily relaxation. The high builds up slowly, but it eventually will settle in both body and mind. Releasing you of physical tension and loosening up your muscles. It will slowly transition into a couchlock and clear up your mind. The experience is soothing and won't be overwhelming. Give in to it, and it will be a perfect strain to unwind for a great night of sleep. Make sure you have some leisure time, because the effects will last for a rather long period.
