Perma Frost
Also known as: Permafrost, PermaFrost
Perma Frost Strain Overview
Perma Frost is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its distinctive appearance and potent effects. The strain was developed by crossing White Widow with an unknown indica-dominant strain, though some sources suggest Northern Lights may be involved in its lineage. This combination has resulted in a plant that exhibits characteristics of both its sativa and indica heritage, creating a balanced hybrid experience.
The strain's most notable feature is its striking visual appearance, which inspired its name. Perma Frost plants develop a thick coating of trichomes that gives the buds a frosty, white appearance reminiscent of permanent frost. The buds are typically dense and compact with vibrant green coloration accented by orange pistils. The heavy trichome production not only contributes to its visual appeal but also indicates high cannabinoid content.
Perma Frost first gained popularity in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States and has since spread to other markets. The strain is known for its complex aroma profile that combines earthy, pine, and citrus notes with subtle hints of spice. Its effects are typically described as balanced, providing both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation, making it suitable for various times of day depending on dosage and individual tolerance.

Perma Frost Strain Growing Information
Perma Frost is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plants tend to stay relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Perma Frost can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors, with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. Special considerations include maintaining proper air circulation to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure and heavy trichome production. Nutrient requirements are moderate, and the plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields.
