Chocolate Parfait
Also known as: Chocolate Parfait OG
Chocolate Parfait Strain Overview
Chocolate Parfait is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed through the crossbreeding of Chocolate Kush and Cherry Pie. This strain emerged in the early 2010s from West Coast breeders seeking to combine the rich chocolate flavors of Chocolate Kush with the sweet berry notes of Cherry Pie. The resulting cultivar has gained popularity among connoisseurs for its distinctive flavor profile and potent effects.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, conical buds with deep forest green coloration accented by vibrant orange pistils. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance that hints at its potency. The buds typically have a compact structure with tight calyx formation, making them visually appealing to both recreational users and medical patients.
Notable features of Chocolate Parfait include its complex aroma that evolves from earthy chocolate notes upon initial inspection to sweeter, dessert-like undertones when broken apart. The strain's effects are predominantly physical while maintaining enough cerebral stimulation to prevent complete sedation. Its balanced terpene profile contributes to both its therapeutic potential and recreational appeal, making it suitable for evening use.

Chocolate Parfait Strain Growing Information
Chocolate Parfait is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks indoors and is ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October. Indoor yields typically range from 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 in warm, Mediterranean-like outdoor climates. Plants tend to remain relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to moisture retention. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods, with some growers reporting enhanced terpene expression in organic soil grows.
