Dream Cake
Also known as: Dream Cake OG, Dream Cake Kush
Dream Cake Strain Overview
Dream Cake is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its balanced effects and dessert-like flavor profile. The strain was developed by crossing Wedding Cake with an unknown OG Kush phenotype, creating a genetic blend that combines the sweet, creamy characteristics of Wedding Cake with the classic earthy, piney notes of OG Kush. This combination results in a strain that appeals to both recreational users seeking flavorful experiences and medical users looking for versatile effects.
The strain's appearance is notable for its dense, chunky buds that display a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. These buds are typically covered in a thick layer of frosty trichomes and adorned with bright orange pistils. The visual appeal is complemented by a complex aroma that combines sweet, creamy notes with undertones of earth and pine, creating a sensory experience that lives up to its dessert-inspired name.
Dream Cake has become particularly popular in the West Coast cannabis markets and has spread to other regions due to its reliable performance and appealing characteristics. While not as historically significant as some classic strains, it represents the ongoing trend of developing flavorful hybrids that offer balanced effects suitable for various times of day. The strain's moderate to high THC content makes it suitable for experienced users, though beginners should approach with caution due to its potency.

Dream Cake Strain Growing Information
Dream Cake is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are generally good, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plants tend to be medium in height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. They prefer a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors, with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. Indoor growers should provide good air circulation and monitor humidity levels to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields and manage height. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with particular attention needed during the flowering phase to support bud development.
