Creamz
Creamz
Also known as: Creams, CreamZ
Overview
Creamz is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (70% indica/30% sativa) developed by Exotic Genetix through a cross of Runtz and Cookies & Cream IX3. This strain emerged during the modern dessert-cannabis wave of the late 2010s and early 2020s, when consumers gravitated toward candy-forward cultivars with creamy, vanilla-frosting notes. Creamz operates as a strain family with several closely related crosses, as different breeders have released phenotypes based on distinct but related dessert genetics, making it function as both a specific strain and a flavor descriptor for sweet, confectionary terpenes.
The buds are characterized by dense, arrowhead-shaped olive green nugs with lots of super thin red-orange hairs and a frosty coating of sparkling, milky white crystal trichomes. Users report frosty and fluffy buds with dark green tones complemented by purple and orange hues. The strain has gained popularity for its mouthwatering blend of sweet creamy vanilla and mint flavors with just a touch of spicy diesel upon exhale, accompanied by a notably creamy vanilla aroma accented by dry earth and spices. Creamz has become shorthand for a specific flavor-and-feel experience: rich cream, sugar candy, and a relaxed but buoyant hybrid high, making it a favorite among cannabis connoisseurs seeking dessert-like profiles.

Growing Information
Creamz is classified as a moderately difficult strain suitable for intermediate growers. The flowering time ranges from 56-70 days indoors, with most cuts finishing around 63 days, though some phenotypes benefit from an extra 3-5 days for full terpene development. Indoor growers commonly report yields of 450-600 grams per square meter under high-efficiency LEDs, while outdoor plants can yield 600-900 grams per plant in favorable climates. The plants grow to medium height with a multi-topped bush structure, making them suitable for various grow spaces. Proper airflow and spacing are essential to prevent mold, especially since Creamz can yield heavily. Optimal growing conditions include day temperatures of 24-28°C in veg and early flower with nights at 20-22°C, and relative humidity of 40-45% in late flower. The strain responds well to low-stress training (LST) and rewards attentive cultivation with thick resin frosting and dessert-grade terpenes.
