King's Custard
What is the King's Custard strain?
King's Custard is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and creamy and diesel flavor profile.
King's Custard is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing two popular dessert-themed varieties: Wedding Cake and Ice Cream Cake. This strain emerged in the late 2010s as part of the dessert strain trend that gained popularity in North American cannabis markets. Breeders sought to combine the potent effects and appealing flavors of its parent strains into a single cultivar that would appeal to both recreational and medicinal users.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring deep purple and dark green hues complemented by vibrant orange pistils. A thick coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance that resembles powdered sugar. The buds are often tightly packed with a dense structure that breaks apart to reveal complex aromatic profiles. King's Custard is noted for its balanced genetic expression, typically leaning slightly toward indica dominance while maintaining some sativa characteristics.
Notable features include its complex terpene profile that creates a unique sensory experience and its relatively high THC content that makes it popular among experienced consumers. The strain has gained recognition in cannabis competitions and has developed a following in legal markets, particularly in states with established cannabis cultures. Its name reflects both its regal potency and its creamy, dessert-like flavor profile that distinguishes it from more traditional cannabis varieties.

How do you grow King's Custard?
King's Custard is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments but thrives in controlled indoor settings where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors.

Special considerations include maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold in the dense buds and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding. The strain prefers a stable environment with temperatures between 68-80°F (20-27°C) during flowering. Growers should watch for nutrient deficiencies during the flowering phase and provide adequate support for the heavy, resinous buds in late flowering stages.
