Feminized seeds
by Azarius
Wedding Cake is a feminized photoperiod cannabis seed that crosses Girl Scout Cookies with Cherry Pie, producing a mostly indica hybrid with 17–23% THC and dense, resin-drenched buds. If you've grown GSC before and loved the frost but wanted bigger yields and a sweeter nose, this is where you end up. The flavour sits somewhere between vanilla cake batter and damp earth — sweet up front, tart on the finish from that Cherry Pie lineage. We've had customers come back specifically for the extraction potential: the trichome coverage on these buds is absurd.
Wedding Cake feminized seeds come in packs of 1, 3, 5, and 10. If you're running a single tent and want to pheno-hunt a little, the 3-pack gives you enough variation to find a keeper without overcrowding. The 5-pack suits a full 1.2m x 1.2m canopy under a 400–600W equivalent. Go for 10 if you're planning a proper rotation or want to keep mothers — at that count, you'll almost certainly find a standout phenotype worth cloning.

Running Wedding Cake indoors? Pair it with a proper carbon filter — the sweet terps on this strain get loud in late flower. A digital pH meter is also worth having on hand, since the dense bud structure means you want your feed dialled in tight to avoid rot in the final weeks.
We've been stocking cannabis seeds since the early days, and Wedding Cake remains one of the most consistently requested strains in our catalogue. The reason is straightforward: it delivers on every front that matters. The 450–500 g/m² indoor yield puts it firmly in the heavy-producer category for an indica-leaning hybrid, and the 600 g/plant outdoor potential means you're not sacrificing quantity for quality. The 8–9 week flowering window is manageable — not the fastest finisher, but you're not waiting 12 weeks either.
The real draw is the resin production. If you're making extracts, dry sift, or bubble hash, Wedding Cake is one of the best feminized strains for concentrate work. The trichome density is visible to the naked eye from week 5 of flower, and by harvest, the sugar leaves are almost as frosted as the calyxes. That's the GSC genetics doing their job. The Cherry Pie side brings the structure — slightly more open than pure GSC, which means better airflow through the canopy and less mould risk in humid environments.
The honest limitation: this strain likes to eat. She's a heavy feeder, especially in the last 3–4 weeks. If you're running organic soil with no top-dressing, you might see some yellowing before you're ready to chop. Budget for a good bloom nutrient or at least a compost tea schedule. Compared to something like Northern Lights, which practically grows itself on water and sunshine, Wedding Cake asks a bit more from you. But the payoff — in bag appeal, flavour, and potency — is worth the extra attention.
The terpene profile on Wedding Cake is what keeps people coming back. The dominant note is sweet and doughy — genuinely cake-like, not just marketing. Underneath that sits a layer of damp earth and herbal spice, almost like fresh rosemary crushed between your fingers. The Cherry Pie genetics add a tartness that cuts through the sweetness, stopping it from becoming cloying. On the exhale, there's a distinct vanilla finish that lingers.
In the grow room, expect the smell to build noticeably from week 4 of flower. By week 6, it's unmistakable — a sweet, bakery-like scent with a peppery edge. If you're growing in a shared space, a carbon filter is non-negotiable from mid-flower onwards. The cured buds hold their aroma well in glass jars; we'd recommend a 2-week minimum cure to let the vanilla and tart notes fully develop. Rush the cure and you'll get more of the earthy, herbal base without the sweetness that makes this strain special.
Since Wedding Cake is a direct descendant of GSC, we get this question constantly. Here's the practical breakdown:
| Trait | Wedding Cake | Girl Scout Cookies |
|---|---|---|
| Genetics | GSC x Cherry Pie | OG Kush x Durban Poison |
| THC Range | 17–23% | 18–25% |
| Flowering Time | 8–9 weeks | 9–10 weeks |
| Indoor Yield | 450–500 g/m² | 350–450 g/m² |
| Flavour | Sweet, vanilla, tart, earthy | Sweet, minty, earthy |
| Best For | Extracts, heavy yields, flavour chasers | Potency hunters, compact grows |
If yield and resin production are your priorities, Wedding Cake wins. The Cherry Pie cross added vigour and structure that pure GSC sometimes lacks. GSC edges ahead on raw potency in some phenotypes, and its more compact growth suits smaller tents. We'd pick Wedding Cake for a 1m x 1m or larger space, and GSC for a micro-grow where every centimetre counts.
After years of customer feedback and seeing grow diaries from people who've bought these seeds through us, a few patterns stand out. First: don't skimp on support in late flower. The buds get heavy — genuinely heavy — and branches will sag or snap without stakes or a trellis net. We've seen beautiful grows ruined in the last week because a main cola folded under its own weight.
Second: the talkative, sociable effect that people report makes this a surprisingly good strain for afternoon or early evening use. It's indica-dominant, yes, but it doesn't immediately flatten you the way a pure Kush might. The initial onset leans uplifting before settling into full-body relaxation. Several of our regulars describe it as their go-to for dinner parties — relaxed enough to enjoy the food, alert enough to hold a conversation.
One thing we're honest about: if you're after a CBD-rich strain for a milder experience, Wedding Cake isn't it. The CBD content is negligible. This is a THC-forward strain built for potency and flavour. For something more balanced, look at a CBD-rich variety instead.
Sweet and doughy up front — genuinely reminiscent of cake batter — with earthy, herbal undertones and a tart finish from the Cherry Pie genetics. After a proper 2-week cure, a distinct vanilla note comes through on the exhale. It's a multi-layered profile that rewards slow, low-temperature consumption.
It's manageable but not the easiest first grow. The heavy feeding requirements and dense bud structure (which needs humidity management) add a layer of attention that something like Northern Lights doesn't demand. If you're a first-timer willing to monitor your environment and feed schedule, you'll be fine. Just don't neglect airflow in late flower.
Relaxing body effects paired with an uplifting, talkative onset. At 17–23% THC, it's potent but not overwhelming for experienced users. The indica dominance means the relaxation deepens over time, making it better suited to evening or low-key social settings than active daytime use.
One of the best. The trichome coverage is exceptional — sugar leaves and calyxes are both heavily frosted by harvest. It performs well for dry sift, bubble hash, and solvent-based extractions. The resin-rich buds and high THC content translate directly into potent, flavourful concentrates.
8–9 weeks from the flip to 12/12. Most phenotypes are ready at the 8.5-week mark. Watch trichome colour rather than counting days — harvest when you see mostly cloudy heads with some amber for the best balance of potency and flavour.
450–500 g/m² under optimal conditions with adequate lighting (400W HPS equivalent or better). Training techniques like topping and LST help maximise this. Outdoor plants can push up to 600 g/plant in a good climate with a long growing season.
Moderate stretch — roughly 30–50% height increase in the first two weeks after flipping to 12/12. The indica dominance keeps it more compact than sativa-leaning hybrids. Topping during veg and using a SCROG net will keep the canopy flat and even.
