Holy Moly Donut Shop
Also known as: Holy Moly, Donut Shop
Holy Moly Donut Shop Strain Overview
Holy Moly Donut Shop is a relatively new hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the late 2010s, gaining popularity in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States before spreading to other legal markets. The strain's whimsical name reflects its sweet, dessert-like aroma profile and the intense effects that some users describe as 'holy' in their potency. While its exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding records, it has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its balanced effects and complex flavor profile.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense, chunky structure reminiscent of some indica-dominant varieties. The flowers display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues that emerge under cooler growing conditions, complemented by a generous coating of trichomes that gives the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance. Orange pistils weave through the dense flower structure, creating visual contrast. The buds are known for their sticky resin production, which contributes to both their potency and the difficulty some users report in grinding the material.
Notable features include its distinctive aroma that combines sweet, pastry-like notes with sharper citrus undertones, creating a complex sensory experience. The strain's effects are characterized by a rapid onset that begins with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation, making it popular for evening use. While not as widely documented as some classic strains, Holy Moly Donut Shop has developed a reputation among enthusiasts for its consistent quality when grown under optimal conditions and its ability to provide both recreational and therapeutic benefits according to user reports.

Holy Moly Donut Shop Strain Growing Information
Holy Moly Donut Shop is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Yields are generally above average, with indoor growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, and outdoor plants producing 500-700 grams per plant.
The plants exhibit hybrid growth characteristics, reaching a medium height of 4-6 feet when grown outdoors, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Indoor growers should plan for some vertical space as the plants can stretch significantly during the flowering transition. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity when grown outdoors.
Special considerations include maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold in the dense buds, particularly in the final weeks of flowering when resin production peaks. The plants respond well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods, though some growers report enhanced terpene expression in organic soil grows. Training techniques like topping and low-stress training can help maximize yields and manage the plant's vertical growth. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some sensitivity to overfeeding during the vegetative stage.
