Genetics
Ice Caps is a hybrid strain developed by SinCity Seeds, resulting from the cross between the sweet and creamy Ice Cream Cake and SinCity Seeds' own Blue Power IX2. Ice Cream Cake contributes its rich, dessert-like qualities, while Blue Power IX2 adds a potent Indica-dominant backbone and complexity. This combination produces a well-balanced hybrid that delivers a unique blend of sweet and savory flavors, making Ice Caps seeds a prized addition for cultivators seeking flavor diversity and strong genetics.
Flavor and Smell
Ice Caps offers a rich flavor profile that masterfully combines notes of cake, kush, jam, and cream. The dessert-like sweetness of freshly baked cake intertwines with earthy and slightly spicy kush undertones, while hints of fruity jam and creamy smoothness complete the palate. This intricate layering of flavors makes Ice Caps a truly indulgent taste experience. The aroma is equally captivating, filling the space with a sweet, creamy scent reminiscent of a bakery, accented by subtle fruity and herbal notes that enhance its inviting fragrance.
Flowering Time
With a flowering period between 55 and 65 days, Ice Caps provides a relatively quick turnaround for a strain with such a complex flavor and aroma profile. This flowering time allows cultivators to harvest efficiently while still achieving the rich qualities the strain is known for. The fast maturation makes Ice Caps seeds a practical choice for growers seeking quality buds within a manageable timeframe, fitting well into various cultivation schedules.
Type and Yield

This balance offers a robust growth pattern and structure suitable for a variety of growing conditions. The strain boasts a high yield potential, with plants producing between 450 and 800 grams per square meter depending on environment and care.

Seed Type
Ice Caps is offered as regular cannabis seeds, producing both male and female plants. This seed type provides breeders and experienced growers the opportunity to select and breed preferred genetics or cultivate high-quality female plants.

Ice Caps regular seeds cater to those who value both cultivation and breeding flexibility.
