Dosing
THC levels in Wedding Cake can be pretty high, so those prone to anxiety or paranoia should dose lightly. If you inhale cannabis and are new to this strain (cultivar), start with a puff or two and wait about 10 minutes before redosing. Suppose you are using Wedding Cake in an edible. In that case, it is extra vital to go slow and low, as this is a potent variety of cannabis, and eating strong, decarboxylated cannabis can produce potent psychoactive effects. A dose of 2.5- 5.0 mg of THC is ideal.
Generally, it is best to go slow and low, especially if you are eating cannabis, where a starting dose of 2.5 mg – 5.0 mg is ideal. Those inhaling cannabis should take just one or two puffs at a time, waiting a few minutes between each pull to lower the chances of an overwhelming effect.
Growing
Wedding Cake is a relatively approachable strain (cultivar) to grow and does particularly well indoors with a “sea of green” (SoG) setup. For this method, it’s ideal to find a strong mother plant, take cuttings from it and plant the clones. Expect yields of between 18 and 21 ounces per square meter. Wedding Cake can be grown outdoors but requires a warm, sunny, and slightly humid climate more typical of tropical or subtropical climates.
Height
Expect Wedding Cake to grow to short or medium height, between 2.5 and 5 feet, or 30 to 60 inches.
Humidity and Temperature
As with most varieties of cannabis, Wedding Cake does best at a humidity level of around 50% during the vegetative stage. However, Wedding Cake may have a slightly higher humidity tolerance than other varieties. It is ideal to gradually reduce humidity to 40%, 35%, and 30% during the final two weeks of the flowering stage.
The ideal temperature for Wedding Cake is between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit (21 to 26 degrees Celsius) during the day, reducing the temperature by 10 degrees to 55 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit (13 to 18 degrees Celsius) at night.
Flowering
Wedding Cake can take seven to nine weeks to flower. In the Northern Hemisphere, you can expect to harvest Wedding Cake around late September or mid-October, or late February to mid-March in the Southern Hemisphere.
