At Flora Farms, we love spotlighting the most exciting cannabis strains that come through our gardens. Today, we’re diving into Ice Cream Runtz, a luxurious indica-dominant hybrid that combines two well-loved strains into something truly special. If you’re a fan of body-melting relaxation and deliciously complex flavors, this is a strain you won’t want to miss.
Strain Breakdown: Ice Cream Runtz
Ice Cream Runtz is the perfect hybrid of two favorites: Ice Cream Cake and Runtz. As an indica-leaning strain, it delivers full-body effects with just the right amount of heady uplift to keep you feeling creative before the deep relaxation sets in. Let’s break down its parentage and what makes this strain such a treat.
- Ice Cream Cake (Wedding Cake x Gelato #33) brings its signature creamy flavor profile, rich with vanilla and sugary dough notes. Known for its heavy indica effects, this strain is beloved for providing a calming, almost sedating relaxation. Perfect for easing into sleep or simply unwinding after a long day.
- Runtz, created by Cookies Fam and crossed from Zkittlez and Gelato, has a reputation for its candy-like sweetness and euphoric highs. This hybrid strain is fruity, smooth, and delivers long-lasting, uplifting effects.
Put these together, and you’ve got Ice Cream Runtz—a creamy, flavorful experience that balances the best of both worlds.
The Aroma & Flavor
Ice Cream Runtz hangs out in the middle of the aroma spectrum, not a candy-sweet smelling strain, and not a strain that smells like a garlic patch either. Its top notes include gas and florals which zing the nose, before a subtle sweetness surfaces, bringing to mind pumpkins and the earthy funk of walnuts. If a savory version of pumpkin spice exists, it might smell like Ice Cream Runtz. It’s a feast for the senses, and the smooth, creamy smoke only heightens the experience. Its top common terpenes of caryophyllene, limonene, and linalool support this strain’s effects which include a stony head high, euphoria, and stress-relieving relaxation.
Effects & Usage
While the flavor is one of the standout qualities of Ice Cream Runtz, the effects are where it truly shines. This strain hits fast, delivering a potent head high that can leave you feeling euphoric and slightly buzzy. Don’t let the initial rush fool you because once you relax, you really relax. It’s not uncommon for casual users to find themselves in full-on couch lock mode by the end of the session. So for those seeking serious body relief, this strain is perfect for evening use when there’s nothing left to do but unwind.
Growing Ice Cream Runtz at Flora Farms
At Flora Farms, we take the time to learn what helps each strain grow best, from nutrients to growing conditions. Quality grows in the plant as we care for it through every step of the process. Ice Cream Runtz plants are visually striking, medium in height with dense buds covered in sticky trichomes. The leaves are moderately broad, developing dark purple hues throughout the 60-65 day flower cycle. From the garden, Ice Cream Runtz heads to our cure team where it develops the skunkier aromas thanks to our low and slow dry/cure methods. Once trimmed, the shapely green nugs are tinged with deep purples and fiery orange pistils.
