Apricot Icecream
Also known as: Apricot Ice Cream
Apricot Icecream Strain Overview
Apricot Icecream is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing the popular strains Apricot Kush and Ice Cream Cake. This strain emerged in the late 2010s as breeders sought to combine the fruity terpene profile of Apricot Kush with the creamy, dessert-like qualities of Ice Cream Cake. While its exact origins are somewhat obscure in the cannabis breeding community, it has gained recognition through various seed banks and clone providers, particularly in North American markets.
The strain is characterized by dense, frosty buds that display a vibrant color palette ranging from deep forest green to purple hues, often accented with bright orange pistils. The nugs are typically coated in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a glistening, icy appearance that inspired part of its name. Apricot Icecream plants produce a complex aroma profile that combines sweet fruit notes with creamy undertones and subtle earthy accents.
Notable features include its balanced effects that many users describe as both physically relaxing and mentally uplifting. The strain has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its versatile effects and appealing flavor profile. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Apricot Icecream has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate dessert-style strains with fruity characteristics.

Apricot Icecream Strain Growing Information
Apricot Icecream is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by early to mid-October outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in warm, Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to reach medium height (100-150 cm indoors, 150-200 cm outdoors) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The strain responds well to organic nutrients and requires adequate spacing for proper air circulation.
