Cake N Chem
Cake N Chem
Also known as: Cake and Chem, Cake N' Chem, Cake & Chem
Overview
Cake N Chem is a predominantly indica hybrid cannabis strain created by Greenpoint Seeds through crossing Wedding Cake with Stardawg. This sophisticated cultivar represents the modern evolution of dessert strains, combining the exceptional bag appeal and sweet vanilla cake characteristics of Wedding Cake with the pungent skunk-funk and energizing effects of Stardawg. The strain emerged during the peak of dessert strain popularity in the late 2010s and early 2020s, gaining recognition for its ability to bridge sweet and gas flavor profiles.
Developed by renowned breeder Jbeezy at Greenpoint Seeds, Cake N Chem showcases rare genetics that include Triangle Kush and Animal Mints in its lineage through the Wedding Cake parent. The buds display exceptional visual appeal with dense, popcorn-shaped bright neon green nugs accented by thin orange hairs and a generous coating of frosty white crystal trichomes. The strain typically produces dark green flowers with purple flecks and maintains the signature resinous quality that makes it highly sought after for concentrate production. Users consistently report that this strain offers a complex sensory experience that begins with fuel-like aromas, transitions through vanilla frosting notes, and concludes with a warm, peppery exhale.

Growing Information
Cake N Chem is considered moderately easy to grow and can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments. The strain has a flowering time of 63-70 days (approximately 9-10 weeks), with some Chem-dominant phenotypes requiring up to 74 days. Plants typically exhibit a stretch of 1.5-2.0x during flowering with medium internodes. Indoor yields commonly range from 450-650 grams per square meter, with optimized SCROG setups potentially achieving up to 700 grams per square meter. The strain responds well to training techniques and is noted for being relatively mold and pest resistant. Optimal growing conditions include temperatures of 74-80°F during vegetative growth and 70-78°F during flowering, with humidity levels of 55-65% in veg and 45-52% early flower, dropping to 40-45% late in flower. pH should be maintained at 5.8-6.1 for hydro/coco and 6.3-6.8 for soil. The strain produces dense, resinous buds that are excellent for concentrate production, with solventless rosin yields of 18-24%.
