Zamnesias Lava Cake Description

Looking for a unique, boutique strain to add to your garden? Zamnesia's feminized Lava Cake delivers exceptional flavours, a super relaxing high, and great grow traits that make it easy to cultivate indoors and out. Whether you're a rookie grower or a seasoned weed connoisseur, Lava Cake is sure to satisfy.

A cross between a highly sought-after GSC phenotype—Thin Mint—and Grape Pie, Zamnesia’s Lava Cake strain brings together some of the best traits of modern cannabis breeding. Developing a bounty of potent buds after a short flowering phase, this strain is primed for greatness from the outset.

Thanks to its indica dominance, Lava Cake is suitable to grow indoors and outdoors, with plants reaching medium heights with tightly spaced internodes that are easy to manage or manipulate. To maximise yields when growing Lava Cake indoors, we recommend pruning regularly and using LST to optimise light penetration into the lower areas of the plant （remember, this is a stocky, bushy indica）. Topping and super cropping also work great on this strain, but should be executed with caution. Thanks to its stature, Lava Cake also works great in SOG setups when kept in smaller pots and spaced correctly. Outdoors, on the other hand, one or two topping sessions and some regular defoliation and pruning should be all the training it takes to achieve great yields.

In optimal conditions, Lava Cake can produce 450–500g/m² indoors and up to 550g/plant outdoors. This strain is fast-flowering, with its bloom phase usually lasting 60–65 days （8–9 weeks）. If exposed to cooler temperatures during this period, Lava Cake might also develop some beautiful purple hues for extra eye candy.

But Lava Cake’s charm doesn’t end in the grow room; when dried and cured properly, its flowers are nothing short of exceptional. With an average THC concentration of 23%, Lava Cake’s effects come on strong and steady, relaxing the body and easing the mind. Even seasoned smokers won’t need more than a few tokes to get lulled into a deeply chilled and happy state. As such, Lava Cake is best enjoyed after a long day, on days off, or simply whenever you're seeking some solace and relaxation.

Lava Cake’s aromas and flavours also won’t disappoint. Its rich and complex terpene profile gives the strain a delicious bouquet that combines notes of sweet baked goods with subtle yet noticeable berry and grape undertones （all of which inevitably stem from its Thin Mint and Grape Pie parents）. When inhaled, Lava Cake is smooth and sweet.

If you’re looking to grow a unique indica-dominant strain this year, Zamnesia’s Lava Cake is a great option. With its easy-to-manage grow traits and exceptional potency and flavours, this strain is suited to both beginner growers and seasoned, selective smokers on the constant search for top-shelf bud.
