Ice Cream Cake

Ice Cream Cake

Kicking off our list of delicious dessert strains is Ice Cream Cake. Formed from a tasty union of Wedding Cake and Gelato #33, this indica-dominant strain is packed full of flavour and primed to perform in your grow-op! Reaching medium heights, all it takes is a swift 8–9 weeks of flowering indoors before Ice Cream Cake is ready to unleash colossal yields of up to 550g/m². Meanwhile, outdoor plants can deliver huge returns of up to 1,000g each in late September or early October! With THC levels peaking at around 22%, Ice Cream Cake is quick to chill you out with blissful and relaxing sensations. All the while, you’ll be delighted by delicious flavours of cream and butter with hints of vanilla and sugary sweetness.

While the photoperiod feminized version of Ice Cream Cake offers up an easygoing growing experience, there's an autoflowering version available that's sure to suit all growers. Taking just 9–10 weeks from germination to harvest, Ice Cream Cake Automatic showcases impressive yields of 500g/m² indoors and around 160g/plant outside—all while providing the same great flavours, aromas, and effects that growers have come to expect from this particular cultivar.
