Cheese Breath
Also known as: Cheese Breath OG, Cheese Breath Strain
Cheese Breath Strain Overview
Cheese Breath is a hybrid cannabis strain that combines two notable genetics: Cheese and Mendo Breath. The strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to create a variety that maintained the distinctive aromatic qualities of Cheese strains while incorporating the relaxing effects and complex flavor profile of Mendo Breath. While its exact origin remains somewhat obscure within the cannabis breeding community, Cheese Breath has gained recognition among enthusiasts for its unique sensory characteristics and balanced effects.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds that exhibit a classic indica-dominant structure with tight, compact formations. The flowers are often a vibrant green with occasional purple hues that develop under cooler temperatures, complemented by a generous coating of trichomes that gives them a frosty appearance. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating visual contrast. The most distinctive feature of Cheese Breath is its aroma profile, which combines the pungent, savory notes of aged cheese with underlying sweet and earthy tones.
Cheese Breath represents a successful fusion of two respected lineages, offering users a complex experience that appeals to both recreational consumers and medical users seeking specific effects. The strain has maintained a consistent presence in certain cannabis markets, particularly in regions where Cheese varieties have historical popularity, though it remains less widespread than some of its parent strains. Its balanced genetic profile makes it suitable for various consumption methods and has contributed to its steady popularity among those familiar with its characteristics.

Cheese Breath Strain Growing Information
Cheese Breath is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower within 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready by mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields average 14-16 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor environments but thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 3-5 feet tall, making them manageable for indoor cultivation with proper training techniques. Cheese Breath prefers a stable climate with temperatures between 68-80°F (20-27°C) and moderate humidity levels, particularly during flowering to prevent mold development in the dense buds.
Special considerations include the strain's pungent aroma during flowering, which requires adequate odor control measures for discreet cultivation. The plants respond well to training methods like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize light exposure and improve yields. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and ensure good air circulation around the dense buds to prevent fungal issues. Nutrient requirements are typical for hybrid strains, with a balanced feeding regimen recommended throughout the growth cycle.
