Lava Cake

Lava Cake feminized seeds produce an indica-dominant hybrid that combines dessert-forward flavor with substantial resin output and a deeply relaxing effect profile. This strain carries THC levels between 16 and 24 percent, making it one of the more versatile photoperiod feminized varieties for growers who want consistency across harvests without sacrificing potency. Genetics & Lineage Lava Cake is a cross of Thin Mint GSC and Grape Pie, two strains that bring complementary strengths to the pairing. Thin Mint GSC contributes structural density, resin production, and the cool minty-earthy character that GSC descendants are known for. Grape Pie adds sweet fruit depth and a relaxing indica body, reinforcing the roughly 70 percent indica, 30 percent sativa split. The result is a compact, resinous plant that expresses both parent lines clearly in its appearance, aroma, and effect. Aroma, Flavour & Effects The terpene profile is anchored by Myrcene, Caryophyllene, Limonene, and Humulene. Myrcene provides the earthy, musky base that gives Lava Cake its grounding richness. Caryophyllene adds a subtle pepper-spice note and is the only known terpene to interact directly with the endocannabinoid system as a CB2 receptor agonist. Limonene lifts the profile with bright citrus top notes, while Humulene contributes a dry, herbal edge that keeps the sweetness from becoming cloying. On the nose, expect grape and mint upfront, with vanilla emerging after the cure. The smoke is smooth and layered — sweet on the inhale, with earthy and spice notes on the exhale. Effects arrive within minutes as a warm, full-body relaxation that settles into the muscles without producing heavy sedation at moderate doses. At higher THC expressions approaching 24 percent, expect a more pronounced physical heaviness suitable for evening use. Growing Profile Lava Cake performs well both indoors and outdoors. Indoor flowering time runs 8 to 9 weeks, with yields in the range of 450 to 550 grams per square mete
