Black Cherry Cheesecake
Also known as: BCC
Overview
Thought to have originated in Southern Oregon from an unknown breeder, Black Cherry Cheesecake is an indica-dominant hybrid that supposedly crosses Black Cherry Soda, Super Silver Haze, and Cheese. Black Cherry Cheesecake emerges from a three-way cross between Black Cherry Soda, Super Silver Haze, and Cheese strains, creating an indica-dominant hybrid. The genetic blend combines Black Cherry Soda's fruity notes, Super Silver Haze's uplifting effects, and Cheese's creamy profile. Black Cherry Cheesecake is an indica-dominant hybrid, typically with a 70% indica to 30% sativa ratio. While its Southern Oregon roots are documented, breeder mystery surrounds this strain's creation, adding to its intrigue and strain rarity. The strain is characterized by its dessert-like appearance and flavor profile. These large, pink-tinged purple flowers smell like cherries and sugar, and possess a flavor that is aptly described by the name. This bud has long pepper-shaped dark olive green nugs that almost appear to be black with rich purple undertones and a thick frosty coating of tiny lavender colored crystal trichomes. Once ready for harvest, Black Cherry Cheesecake produces olive green buds with flashes of gold pistils. Growers can bring out its deep purple hue and pink hairs by lowering the temperature or harvesting it around fall as the temperature drops but before the snow falls.

Growing Information
Resources report that Black Cherry Cheesecake seeds are not readily available online, so growers should look for seedlings or clones. Once sourced, Black Cherry Cheesecake seedlings can grow indoors or outdoors but may work best in a controlled greenhouse environment. Experienced cultivators say this elusive cultivar can be tricky to perfect and may be best for intermediate-level horticulturists. Indoors, Black Cherry Cheesecake has a short blossoming period of 7 to 9 weeks. The Sea of Green works best for Black Cherry Cheesecake. Its compact structure allows growers to place it close to maximize space. Having more plants encourages the creation of more budding sites. Pairing it with a hydroponics setup also hastens the flowering period while significantly improving yields. The strain is considered intermediate difficulty and responds well to controlled indoor environments with careful management of light, humidity, and nutrients.
