Ice Cream Strain
Ice Cream is the winner of two Highlife Cup competitions and is an Indica dominant variety from Paradise Seeds. Ice Cream, like actual Ice Cream, has a smooth and sweet taste and smoke. This could be where it gets its name from. Ice Cream is 60% Indica dominant and is generally said to be well balanced. The Sativa effects hit first, generating a light wave of bliss, which is swiftly followed by a peaceful and all-encompassing body stone. The exact genetics of Ice Cream is kept a secret by Paradise Seeds, and Ice Cream has a high THC range from 20-24%. The strain has light green buds with frosty trichomes and reddish hair. It is rated as a grade A+ strain by most of its users. Ice Cream is a high yielding strain that generates 500 grams per square meter indoors and has a short flowering time between 45-55 days. It has a lovely sweet aroma that is similar to that of sweet ice cream. Its taste is excellent and makes you feel as if you are eating a smooth and creamy Ice Cream. Ice Cream is a solid and enjoyable strain that lasts up to 3 hours, so users are getting value for their money in most cases. It is arguably a more effective medical strain as opposed to social but can be used for a quiet evening in to destress. Despite the high THC content Ice Cream is almost side-effect free apart from couch lock and is a very calming and relaxing strain in general. The strain can generate a calm focus in users which can encourage them to concentrate on tasks. Users also often report feeling more creative with this strain. Ice Cream is a strain best kept for afternoon use as it will result in sleep.
Why do Patients Use Ice Cream?
Ice Cream is widely found in dispensaries in Canada particularly in Ontario, British Colombia, and Quebec. In the USA, it is only available medically in Washington, which is unfortunate as it is a useful medical strain. It can be prescribed for the treatment of depression, pain, insomnia and anorexia to good effect. It can be used to complete tasks and for focus if the dosage is correct, but couch lock is most definitely an issue with this strain. To forget the worries of the day or emotional/mental anguish in general, Ice Cream is an ideal strain. Negative effects include the usual dry eyes and mouth. Some anxiety, dizziness, and paranoia may also occur (especially with higher doses) with the strain. Ice Cream is predominantly described as a cure to stress in general.
