Jelly Cake
Also known as: Jellie Cake, Jello Cake
Overview
Jelly Cake is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain with two primary genetic variations in circulation. The most widely described version is created through crossing Biscotti and Sunset Sherbet, while a second variant from Holy Smoke Seeds is a cross of Forbidden Jelly and Seed Junky Genetics' infamous Ice Cream Cake strain. This strain exhibits 80% indica and 20% sativa genetics, making it predominantly relaxing in its effects. The buds are visually striking, featuring dense diamond-shaped minty green nugs with golden undertones, thin bright orange hairs and chunky, golden-white crystal trichomes. The strain is characterized by its dessert-like appearance and aroma, with golden undertones and bright orange hairs that set it apart from counterparts, along with a coating of golden-white crystal trichomes suggesting a meticulous cultivation process. Jelly Cake represents a modern hybrid that combines powerful fruit-and-floral profiles with dessert notes, making it popular among both recreational and medicinal users seeking balanced effects with a sophisticated flavor profile.

Growing Information
Jelly Cake is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, showing good adaptability to various growing conditions. The strain has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks, with some sources indicating 9 to 10 weeks of flowering indoors. Indoor plants typically reach an average height of 110 cm and can yield around 450 g/m² under optimal conditions. For outdoor cultivation, plants can grow to impressive heights of 6 to 9 feet, requiring regular trimming and pruning, with yields reaching 700 g per plant when given expert care. The strain reaches perfect finish between mid- and late September when grown outdoors. Training techniques like low-stress training (LST), topping, and SCROG methods are recommended to maximize yields. The strain responds well to proper nutrient management and benefits from defoliation during flowering for better light penetration.
