Cake Breath
Overview
Cake Breath is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (70% indica, 30% sativa) that has gained significant popularity in the modern cannabis market for its dessert-like characteristics and potent effects. Created through crossbreeding Wedding Cake and Mendo Breath F2, this strain exemplifies the contemporary trend toward confectionery-flavored cannabis varieties. Bred by ThugPug Genetics, Cake Breath represents a sophisticated fusion of two distinguished genetic lineages, combining the sweet, euphoric elements of Wedding Cake with the robust, earthy characteristics of Mendo Breath F2.
The strain's appearance is visually striking, featuring lime green flowers with crystalline black sugar leaves and creamsicle hairs. The buds are lime green/purple in color with orange hairs and are nice and dense, completely covered in sugary crystal trichomes. This resin-heavy structure contributes to its impressive potency and bag appeal. The strain greets users with a sharp, musky scent and a spongy, bright green surface, being among the more potent strains available.

Growing Information
Cake Breath is considered a moderately challenging strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The strain can be cultivated indoors, outdoors and greenhouse with a flowering time of approximately 63 days (9 weeks). Plants maintain a manageable height of 5-8 feet and have a growing period of just 8-9 weeks, striking a balance between quick harvest times and high-quality yields. Indoor yields are approximately 400 grams per square meter, while outdoor cultivation can expect around 550 grams per plant. The strain thrives in Mediterranean-like climates with warm temperatures and ample sunlight. Special considerations include the need for proper humidity control due to dense bud structure, adequate ventilation to prevent mold and mildew, and careful nutrient management as it can be sensitive to overfeeding. Regular pruning is recommended to maintain airflow around the dense foliage.
