History of the Grapes and Cream Strain

Grapes and Cream belongs to a library of strains bred by Cannarado Genetics. The company has operated out of the Centennial State for the last 25 years, and started out by making crosses from strains imported from Amsterdam. Since then, the company has focused on using native strains and clone-only elite cultivars as breeding stock. They've dedicated themselves to creating a wide variety of strains that appeal to all preferences, with an emphasis on exotic terpene profiles and high cannabinoid content. Grapes and Cream emerged from this ethos and gained traction as an aesthetically pleasing variety with a particularly moreish terpene profile.

Genetic Lineage of Grapes and Cream

With a goal of fruity and sweet terpenes and stoning effects in mind, Cannarado Genetics harnessed Grape Pie and Cookies and Cream to create Grapes and Cream.

Cannarado Genetics used their own Grape Pie to lay the foundations for Grapes and Cream. As the descendent of Cherry Pie and Grape Stomper, Grape Pie possesses an indica-dominant genetic profile and delivers a euphoric, tingly, and happy high. Her buds also possess a terpene profile seldom found in other strains, serving up strong notes of grapes, pepper, and berries. A mixture of caryophyllene, limonene, and linalool underpins this piquancy. Grape Pie evidently passed down her morphology to Grapes and Cream; she features a dense canopy, broad fan leaves, and plenty of bud sites.

Cookies and Cream rose to stardom in the world of weed after taking first place in the hybrid category at the Denver Cannabis Cup in 2014. Her creators, Exotic Genetix, created this cultivar by crossing an undisclosed phenotype of Girl Scout Cookies with Starfighter. The phytochemical profile behind her success generates a happy, relaxed, and giggly high, and provides unique tastes of vanilla, sweetness, and nuttiness. Cookies and Cream passed down many observable traits to Grapes and Cream, including high concentrations of anthocyanin pigments, and reinforced the indica morphology that also stems from Grape Pie.

Physical Characteristics of Grapes and Cream

Grapes and Cream puts quintessential indica aesthetics on full display. When left to their own devices, plants develop a dense, bushy canopy from which a large central cola emerges, and tops out at around 140cm when grown in large pots. This strain possesses relatively small fan leaves with thick leaflets, short branches, and a sturdy main stem that easily bears the weight of a fully loaded canopy.

Much like Cookies and Cream, Grapes and Cream puts on a stunning show in the late flowering stage, with her colas and fan leaves taking on striking hues of purple, orange, and yellow. This strain captures her name in her appearance; purple and green shades represent grapes, whereas her dense layer of trichomes adds a creamy white element to her exterior.

Properties and Effects of Grapes and Cream

Grapes and Cream exerts a powerful and fast-acting effect. Her average THC concentration of 25% teams up with high levels of caryophyllene, limonene, and humulene to produce a creative high that gets the cogs of the mind turning. However, this energizing side of Grapes and Cream soon tapers off into a stoning body high that reddens the eyes and relaxes the limbs; this sensation puts many users in the mood to put creative projects on hold and relax in front of a film. Overall, Grapes and Cream’s potent and largely stoning effects make her more suitable for evening sessions as opposed to daytime use.

The aroma and flavor served up by Grapes and Cream is at once sweet and creamy, with notes of pears and grapes mingling with earthy vanilla.

Uses of Grapes and Cream

Grapes and Cream’s uplifting high makes it suitable for a range of activities, including social smoke sessions with close friends, leisurely walks and hikes, creating art, or simply lounging after a workout or long day at work.

No scientific studies have assessed the therapeutic potential of Grapes and Cream. However, anecdotal reports show that some users smoke this strain in attempts to treat the following symptoms:

• Anxiety

• Pain

• Stress

Like most high-THC strains, Grapes and Cream can cause side effects such as dry mouth and red eyes, as well as paranoia and anxiety in some instances.

Cultivation and Production of Grapes and Cream

Equipped with hardy indica genetics, Grapes and Cream gets on well in a range of environments, including indoor grow tents and outdoors in the garden. Despite her tenacity in the face of unfavorable weather conditions, this strain does have a vulnerability to fungal pathogens. Her dense canopy makes her compatible with small spaces but can cause growers to run into trouble if it isn’t managed correctly. However, cultivators can easily overcome this obstacle through training and defoliation. Removing lower leaves, and those close to the middle of the canopy, throughout the growing cycle will promote aeration and combat mold. Topping and ScrOG will also even out the canopy and produce a bouquet-like structure of evenly sized flowers that have equal exposure to light.

Grapes and Cream: Creamy Sweetness Awaits

Grapes and Cream inherited fruity and sweet terpenes and a bushy indica shape from her parent strains. Overall, she produces high levels of THC and exerts a high that starts off energizing and finishes with ample relaxation. Furthermore, her compact size makes Grapes and Cream a good option for growers dealing with limited space, and those who value plenty of THC and sweet flavors.
