California is the epicenter of cannabis culture in the United States. Dozens of cannabis strains have been created in the state, with new drops coming out on a seemingly weekly basis.
One cannabis strain that is quintessentially California is LA Kush Cake. Also called Los Angeles Kush Cake and Kush Cake #11, this indica-dominant hybrid results from a collaboration between two well-known and respected Cali breeders. The strain is a cross between the super famous Wedding Cake and the equally notable Kush Mints. LA Kush Mints took home first place in the 2019 Emerald Cup, a revered California cannabis competition.
Wedding Cake and Kush Mints have similar family trees, with branches zig-zagging around one another. They share Animal Mints as a parent, a descendant of the game-changing GSC strain (also created in California). Other ancestors include Hindu Kush, Chemdawg, Durban, and the White. While some of these are landrace strains native to Asia and Africa, many of LA Kush Cake’s genes come straight from the West Coast.
The LA Kush Cake terpene profile leans toward citrus with hints of vanilla mint. The primary terpenes are limonene (also found in lemons), caryophyllene (present in peppercorns), and myrcene (typically seen in mangoes). Open a jar or bag of LA Kush Cake, and you’re likely met with an intense yet sweet aroma with notes of dough and gas.
LA Kush Cake can be grown indoors or outdoors, but it generally requires a warm, dry climate with plenty of light and good air circulation. It has a flowering time of around 8-9 weeks and can yield moderate to high amounts of buds. It is known for its high resin production, making it a popular strain for making concentrates and extracts.
There are tons of amazing cannabis strains on the West Coast, but LA Kush Cake is a Cali classic. With an iconic family tree full of heavy hitters, this indica strain could be considered cannabis royalty.
