Fire & Ice
Also known as: Fire and Ice, Fire N Ice
Fire & Ice Strain Overview
Fire & Ice is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from two legendary parent strains, creating a unique profile that lives up to its evocative name. The strain was developed by breeders seeking to create a plant with both powerful effects and distinctive flavor characteristics. While its exact origins are somewhat debated within cannabis communities, most sources agree it represents a carefully selected cross between established genetics.
The strain's name reflects its dual nature in both effects and flavor profile. Visually, Fire & Ice typically produces dense, resinous buds with a frosty appearance due to abundant trichome coverage. The coloration often includes deep green hues with occasional purple or orange pistils, creating an attractive contrast. The buds are usually compact and tightly structured, with a sticky texture that indicates high resin production.
Notable features include its complex aroma profile and balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its versatility and reliable performance. While not as widely commercialized as some mainstream strains, Fire & Ice maintains a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its distinctive characteristics and consistent quality when properly cultivated.

Fire & Ice Strain Growing Information
Fire & Ice is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures.
Indoor yields average 14-16 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually reaching 3-5 feet tall, making them manageable for indoor grows with limited vertical space. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture issues. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers reporting sensitivity to overfeeding during the vegetative stage.
