Genetics & Origin of California Cream
California Cream is the result of a large-scale selection: at Humboldt Seed Company's Phenotype Mega Hunt 2018, this selection prevailed among 10,000 plants, according to the breeder. Growth, bud structure, THC content and resistance to diseases, pests and mould were convincing – but it was the terpenes that tipped the balance. As parents, the breeder names Humboldt Reserve OG, Royal Highness and Old School Cookies. The ratio is 60% Indica and 40% Sativa, and the average THC content is 25%; Humboldt Seed Company does not give a CBD value. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod. The breeder counts the strain among its line for farm and garden with long-lasting terpenes. A year later, the same kind of selection produced Pistachio, according to the breeder the most resinous strain at its breeding facility in eastern Humboldt at the Mega Hunt 2019.
Who Is California Cream For?
California Cream appeals to growers for whom aroma comes first. It suits:
- Lovers of sweet aromas such as salted caramel and cream
- Outdoor gardeners who can harvest in the first half of October
- Growers who value resistance to mould and pests
- Indoor growers who plan for around 60 days of flowering
- Consumers looking for a strong, stimulating effect
If you are looking for a heavy, calming evening strain, this hybrid – stimulating according to the breeder – is less of a fit. You can find more strains for open ground under outdoor strains.
Growing California Cream: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
Indoors, Humboldt Seed Company gives the flowering time as 60 days, i.e. a good eight and a half weeks after the switch to 12/12. The breeder does not state figures for height or yield in g/m². Instead, it highlights the growth and bud structure of the selection and describes the terpene content as high and long-lasting. To preserve this aroma, slow, gentle drying is worthwhile; during flowering, a carbon filter keeps the smell in the room. Good air movement still makes sense despite the mould resistance described. You will find the basics on climate and drying in the Growpedia.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, the breeder names 1 to 15 October as the harvest window. The fact that the selection performed well on diseases, pests and mould is an advantage for autumn outdoors; Humboldt Seed Company counts it among its farm- and garden-friendly line. The breeder does not give a yield per plant or a height. A sunny, airy spot helps to keep the flowers dry until harvest. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Flavour of California Cream
The terpene profile is the reason why this particular selection was chosen. Humboldt Seed Company describes it as captivating: above all rich in salty caramel and cream, plus a little nutty and with a fuel finish. The breeder calls the terpene content high and long-lasting, but does not give individual terpenes or a lab profile. It sums up the effect briefly as strong and energising; despite the 40% Sativa share, it assigns the character to the Indica side. With an average of 25% THC, California Cream is a strong strain. How intense its effect is depends on dose and personal tolerance.
