Pancakes
Overview
Pancakes is a hybrid marijuana strain bred by Cookies and Seed Junkie Genetics. Pancakes is named after its delicious flavor and aroma which happens to smell just like a warm plate of pancakes. The sweet smell of Pancakes is more like butter and syrup, and is made by crossing two flavor powerhouses in London Pound Cake #75 and Kush Mints #11. This hybrid strain, boasting a 60% Indica and 40% Sativa ratio, owes its unique characteristics to its parent strains developed through the collaborative efforts of Cookies and Seed Junky Genetics.
Physically, this hybrid leans more towards the Indica side, with dense buds heavily coated in fuzzy-amber trichomes and bushy patches of orange pistils. The short forest-green leaves are hidden underneath but do show in some areas. The buds from this strain are short and bulky, with shades of golden brown that are brightened by frosty trichomes. The result is a diverse strain with 17 different variations, showcasing the influence of Cookies' genetics in the cannabis market. The strain represents a perfect balance of its parent genetics, with London Pound Cake bringing a sweet, vanilla, and buttery aroma to the table, while Kush Mints contributes fresh mint and earthy tones, creating buttery, sweet aromas reminiscent of fresh pancake batter that has made it increasingly popular among cannabis enthusiasts seeking unique flavor profiles combined with well-balanced effects.

Growing Information
The Pancakes strain is a reasonably straightforward and uncomplicated cannabis to produce. This strain's easy-to-cultivate experience makes it an excellent choice for novice growers or those who are only experimenting with growing one plant. Pancakes seems to be a hardy hybrid that grows very quickly into tall, bushy plants. The strain can grow between 70 and 200cm, depending on how much soil she's given and how long she's left to veg. Growers say Pancakes has a short flowering time of 56-69 days indoors. Outdoors, you can expect an early October harvest. Once in bloom, she might stretch notably before taking approximately 9 weeks to reach maturity. Come harvest time, Pancakes plants by breeders like Premium Cultivars might yield around 450g/m² or up to 600g per plant. Given her long branches and large leaves, Pancakes might benefit from regular pruning and defoliation, as well as training. LST, for example, may help control Pancakes' height and promote light penetration into its canopy, while topping may increase its yields through the growth of multiple colas.
