Cappuccino
Cappuccino
Also known as: Cappachino, Cappuccino 420
Overview
Cappuccino is a hybrid cannabis strain resulting from a cross between Espresso and Project 4516. The Espresso parent strain is a combination of Ghost Train Haze and Koffee, while Project 4516 is a cross between Platinum Puff and Gelato 45. Project 4516 was originally bred by Grandiflora Genetics and is an indica-leaning strain known for its potent effects and distinctive terpene profile. This strain was notably developed as part of collaborations between various breeders and cultivators, including a version hand-selected by Cappadonna of the Wu-Tang Clan for his creative artistry.
Cappuccino is generally classified as either an evenly balanced hybrid or indica-dominant hybrid, with some sources reporting an 85% indica to 15% sativa ratio. The strain produces dense, frosty buds with vibrant green hues and a creamy coating of trichomes. The buds are compact and dense, featuring deep olive green hues, brownish-red hairs, and a generous coating of crystals. As the name suggests, Cappuccino boasts an aromatic profile of creamy sweet espresso that combines sweet coffee, chocolate, creamy vanilla, and earthy undertones, with flavors resembling freshly roasted coffee beans. The strain is also known for its exotic, fruity flavor with a gassy, diesel note.

Growing Information
Cappuccino is suited to warm, sunny climates with average humidity and grows to a medium height of 5-8 feet both indoors and outdoors. The flowering time is 8-9 weeks, with outdoor harvest typically occurring from late September to early October. Indoor yields range from 450-550 grams per square meter, while outdoor yields can reach 600-700 grams per plant. The strain grows best in protected areas with moist but well-drained soil. Due to limited frost resistance, plants may require protection or need to be brought indoors during winter. The strain generally doesn't require extensive pruning unless it becomes too large. Optimal growing conditions include warm and dry environments under controlled conditions.
