Overview
Strawberry Cheesecake is a 70% indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by Heavyweight Seeds through a three-way cross of Cheese, Chronic, and White Widow genetics. Introduced to the cannabis market in the early 2000s by the legendary Spanish breeder Heavyweight Seeds, this strain quickly gained popularity for its unique combination of powerhouse parent genetics. The strain perfectly balances Cheese's distinctive flavor profile, Chronic's impressive yields, and White Widow's potent effects to create something extraordinary that has become celebrated worldwide. Strawberry Cheesecake is most famous for its dessert-like appearance and aroma, featuring small, round, and dense forest green nuggets adorned with fiery orange pistils and an abundant coating of crystalline trichomes. The buds display a sturdy structure that showcases the strain's indica dominance, with some phenotypes showing subtle purple hues that develop during flowering.

Growing Information
Strawberry Cheesecake is considered moderately easy to grow, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation with some experience recommended. The strain has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks (50-65 days) and prefers warm, sunny climates. Indoor plants typically reach heights of 0.8-1.3 meters and yield 450-600 grams per square meter (17-18 ounces per square meter). Outdoor plants can grow 1.2-1.5 meters tall and produce 700-900 grams per plant (25-32 ounces), with harvest ready in early October. The strain requires staking to support heavy colas during flowering and benefits from proper lighting, controlled temperature and humidity levels. Plants respond well to training techniques and defoliation to improve light penetration. The strain loves organic soil mediums for enhanced flavor complexity, though hydroponic setups support faster growth.
