What is the Custard Cream strain?
Custard Cream is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and creamy and diesel flavor profile.
Custard Cream is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its unique flavor profile and balanced effects. The strain was developed by crossing two well-known varieties: Cookies and Cream and Gelato #33, resulting in a genetic profile that combines the best characteristics of both parent strains. Its name derives from the distinctive creamy, dessert-like aroma that resembles the British biscuit of the same name, making it particularly appealing to users who enjoy sweet, complex flavor profiles.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a striking appearance. The flowers are often medium to large in size, displaying a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues that become more pronounced under cooler growing conditions. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance, while orange pistils provide visual contrast. The plant structure tends to be bushy with strong lateral branching, making it suitable for various cultivation techniques including SCROG (Screen of Green) and LST (Low Stress Training).
Custard Cream has become particularly notable in cannabis enthusiast circles for its well-rounded effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. While specific historical documentation about its exact origin timeline is limited, it has been circulated by several reputable breeders and has established a presence in both North American and European markets. The strain's popularity continues to grow as more users discover its unique combination of dessert-like flavors and versatile effects.

How do you grow Custard Cream?
Custard Cream is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor growers can expect yields of approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants may produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plant prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation is generally recommended for most growers, as it allows better control over environmental factors. Custard Cream plants tend to reach medium height, typically between 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold (especially during flowering due to dense bud structure) and implementing training techniques to maximize light penetration and yield. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing mediums.
