Cheese Freak
Also known as: Cheese Freak Auto, Cheese Freak Feminized
Cheese Freak Strain Overview
Cheese Freak is a modern cannabis strain developed by crossing two legendary cheese varieties: UK Cheese and Exodus Cheese. This hybrid strain represents a deliberate breeding effort to combine the most desirable characteristics of both parent strains while creating a more consistent and potent expression of the classic cheese profile. The strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to preserve and enhance the distinctive cheese terpene profile that had become increasingly rare in commercial cannabis markets.
The strain exhibits dense, resinous buds with a characteristic pale green coloration often accented by purple and orange pistils. The flowers are typically compact and covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. Cheese Freak is particularly noted for its pungent aroma that combines the signature funky, skunky cheese scent with undertones of earth and diesel, creating a complex olfactory profile that is immediately recognizable to cannabis connoisseurs.
While specific historical documentation is limited, Cheese Freak represents part of the ongoing preservation and development of cheese genetics within the cannabis breeding community. The strain has gained popularity among both recreational users and medical patients who appreciate its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile. Breeders have developed both photoperiod and autoflowering versions of Cheese Freak, making it accessible to growers with different cultivation preferences and experience levels.

Cheese Freak Strain Growing Information
Cheese Freak is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks for photoperiod versions, while autoflowering variants typically complete their life cycle in 10-12 weeks from seed. Indoor growers can expect yields of 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants in optimal conditions may produce 500-600 grams per plant.
The plants tend to be medium in height, reaching 100-150 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. Cheese Freak prefers a Mediterranean climate when grown outside, with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. Indoor cultivation requires good ventilation and air circulation to prevent mold, particularly during the flowering stage when dense buds develop. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods, though soil cultivation may enhance the terpene profile. Regular pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training can help maximize yields and manage plant height.
