Dutch Frost
Also known as: Dutch Frosting, Frosty Dutch
Dutch Frost Strain Overview
Dutch Frost is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from the Netherlands' renowned cannabis breeding scene in the early 2010s. The strain represents a careful genetic selection from Dutch breeders seeking to combine the frosty trichome production of modern hybrids with classic Dutch genetics. While its exact breeding history isn't as extensively documented as some commercial strains, Dutch Frost has gained recognition among connoisseurs for its distinctive appearance and balanced effects.
The strain is characterized by dense, resinous buds that live up to its name, displaying a thick coating of crystalline trichomes that gives the flowers a frosted appearance. The buds typically exhibit a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues that may emerge under cooler growing conditions, complemented by fiery orange pistils. The plant structure tends to be moderately bushy with good lateral branching, making it suitable for various cultivation techniques.
Dutch Frost has maintained a relatively niche status compared to mainstream commercial strains, but it has developed a dedicated following among growers who appreciate its reliable performance and among users who seek its particular combination of effects. The strain represents the continuation of the Dutch tradition of cannabis breeding excellence, blending modern hybridization techniques with the foundational genetics that made the Netherlands a global center for cannabis development.

Dutch Frost Strain Growing Information
Dutch Frost is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants in the Northern Hemisphere are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though indoor cultivation allows better control over the conditions that maximize trichome production.
Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The plant exhibits medium height, typically reaching 120-160 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. Dutch Frost responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to increase yield. The strain prefers a stable environment with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity, particularly during flowering to prevent mold in the dense buds. Adequate airflow is important due to the thick foliage and resinous buds.
