Also known as: Donuts, Doughnut
What is the Doughnuts strain?
Doughnuts is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and bakery and berry flavor profile.
Doughnuts is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity in recent years, particularly in the West Coast cannabis scene. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming to have developed it, but it is generally believed to have emerged from California's competitive cannabis breeding community around the mid-2010s. The name references both the strain's sweet, doughy aroma profile and its tendency to produce dense, rounded buds that some enthusiasts compare to miniature doughnuts in appearance.
Visually, Doughnuts is characterized by medium-sized, tightly packed buds that display a range of green hues from light lime to deep forest, often accented by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosted, sugary appearance. The strain's genetic background combines indica and sativa characteristics, resulting in plants that exhibit hybrid vigor with balanced growth patterns. While not as historically significant as some classic strains, Doughnuts represents the ongoing innovation in cannabis breeding focused on creating unique flavor profiles and reliable effects.
The strain has become particularly noted among connoisseurs for its complex terpene profile that combines sweet, baked-good aromas with subtle fruity and earthy undertones. Doughnuts is considered a moderately potent strain that has found favor among both recreational users seeking balanced effects and medical users looking for symptom relief without overwhelming sedation. Its relative consistency across different growing environments has contributed to its steady popularity in dispensaries and among home growers.

How do you grow Doughnuts?
Doughnuts is considered a moderate-difficulty strain suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by early to mid-October outdoors. 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 cultivation but thrives in controlled environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants exhibit hybrid structure, reaching medium height of 3-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining good airflow to prevent mold in dense buds and providing adequate support during late flowering as buds become heavy. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield.
