Orange Cake
Orange Cake
Also known as: Orange Layer Cake, Orange Cake Pop
Overview
Orange Cake is a hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing California Orange with Mimosa, then further crossed with Orangeade. This balanced 50/50 hybrid strain offers the best of both indica and sativa characteristics, though it leans slightly towards the indica side, delivering a relaxing, full-bodied experience. The genetics result from crossing (California Orange x Mimosa) x Orangeade, creating a strain that combines the citrusy characteristics of its parents with dessert-like cake flavors. The strain originates from exceptional genetics of California seed banks and has been bred by various companies including NemeSeeds and Seed Junky Genetics. Orange Cake features tremendously fluffy, light green buds with vibrant orange pistils gracefully overhanging them, covered with a plethora of frosty trichomes. The strain has become increasingly popular for its complex terpene profile and balanced effects that provide both relaxation and euphoria without overwhelming sedation.

Growing Information
Orange Cake completes its flowering cycle in 9 to 10 weeks indoors, delivering generous yields of up to 500g per m². When grown outdoors under optimal conditions, it can reach up to 550g per plant. This is a vigorous strain known for its resilience and impressive growth, easily doubling in size during the flowering stage. It remains compact indoors (0–4 ft) and reaches medium size outdoors (5–8 ft). The strain falls into the medium difficulty category and while fairly resilient, its explosive growth and need for support during flowering may require attention. This strain flourishes in Mediterranean-like conditions—warm, sunny, and moderately humid climate is ideal. Flowering time is approximately 65 days indoors with outdoor harvest in mid-October.
