Head Cake Strain Overview

Head Cake is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created by Elev8 Seeds through crossing the legendary Wedding Cake and Headband (also known as Daywrecker Diesel) strains. This rare and exclusive strain represents over a decade of dedicated breeding work, as Elev8 Seeds spent years obtaining the exclusive elite Headband clone before crossing it with their prized Wedding Cake cut. The result is a premium strain that combines the best characteristics of both parent genetics, offering users a well-rounded experience that balances euphoria and mental activity with deep relaxation and physical comfort. Head Cake is characterized by its distinctive appearance, featuring oversized, tapered emerald-green buds with thick orange hairs, vibrant purple leaves, and a dense coating of chunky, amber-tinted white crystal trichomes that give it a frosty, cake-like appearance. The strain has since been retired by Elev8 Seeds and is no longer in production, making existing cuts and flowers particularly sought after in the cannabis community.

Head Cake Strain Growing Information

Head Cake is an indica-dominant hybrid that can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of 8-9 weeks. The strain is known for high yields and vigorous growth during early stages, requiring height management in limited spaces as plants continue growing significantly during flowering. Outdoors, plants can reach up to 3 meters in height and yield over 1 kg per plant of high-quality flowers. The strain demonstrates excellent resistance and adaptation to rough weather conditions, making it suitable for novice growers. Harvest timing is typically end of September to early October in the northern hemisphere. The strain produces short, stocky growth with connected tight buds and requires regular pruning (lollipoping) to create proper inner canopy space. Plants are characterized by very greasy, cake-smelling, and extremely frosty buds.
