Sherb Cream Pie Strain Feminized Marijuana Seeds

Where Sherb Cream Pie comes from

Sherb Cream Pie is most often listed as Ice Cream Cake crossed with Sherb Bx1. Ice Cream Cake is itself Wedding Cake crossed with Gelato 33, a heavy, creamy indica. Sherb Bx1 means Sunset Sherbet backcrossed once, a selection made to lock in the sherbet fruit and the Cookies family structure. The same Sherb Bx1 parent appears in Permanent Marker and several other strains of the 2020s.

A second pedigree, Sunset Sherbet crossed with Ice Cream Pie, circulates on some strain databases. The ingredients are close relatives in both versions, and the plants are described in almost identical terms: vanilla, citrus, purple colour and a sleepy finish. Some menus shorten the name to Sherb Cream.

Plants lean indica, about 70/30, stay compact and build heavy, resinous flowers, which is why the strain is so popular with growers who pick their plants for the jar.

Sherb Cream Pie strain effects and experience

Sherb Cream Pie is a slow starter. For the first half hour it brings a soft, happy mood and a slight heaviness around the eyes. The body relaxation then deepens steadily, and by the end most people describe a warm, weighted, drowsy state that makes going to bed very easy.

This is a night-time strain rather than a social one. THC ranges from 20% to 28%, and because the effect builds for a long time, the usual mistake is taking a second session too soon. One small serving is plenty for most people.

Sherb Cream Pie flavour, aroma and appearance

Open the jar and vanilla ice cream comes first, then orange and lemon sherbet and a sweet, sugary candy note. Grinding releases a piney, peppery funk and a light gas from deeper in the family tree. The smoke is thick and smooth: vanilla and cream on the inhale, citrus, pine and pepper on the exhale. Caryophyllene and limonene dominate the terpene profile, with myrcene adding an earthy, musky base.

The buds are dense and chunky, deep green to purple with orange pistils and a heavy white frost. Cool nights in the last two weeks push many plants to a solid lavender or plum colour, and some phenotypes turn purple even in a warm room.

Growing Sherb Cream Pie in Canada

Indoors

Sherb Cream Pie is a compact plant with a modest stretch of about 1.25 to 1.5 times. Veg for four weeks and flip at 40 to 50 cm to finish between 70 and 130 cm, which suits a 120 cm tent. Keep days at 21 to 26 degrees and humidity at 50% to 55% in early flower, then take it below 45% for the last three weeks; the dense, sticky buds do not forgive damp air. Feed at moderate strength with extra calcium and magnesium. Lighter phenotypes finish around day 60, and the most purple ones often want 65 to 70 days. Our guide to managing humidity for cannabis is worth a read before week five.

Outdoors, by region

With a finish in early to mid October, Sherb Cream Pie is an outdoor option only in the mildest parts of Canada. In the Gulf Islands, the Comox Valley and the Fraser Valley, transplant in late May, give it full sun and a rain cover from late September. In Essex County, the Niagara Peninsula and along the north shore of Lake Ontario, a dry autumn brings it home by mid October. On the Prairies, in northern Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada, grow it indoors or in a greenhouse where you can control the humidity at the end, since dense purple buds and cold October rain are a poor mix.

Height and training

Because it stays short, Sherb Cream Pie is well suited to a sea of green with several small plants, or to a single plant topped once and spread flat. Clear the lower growth at the flip and remove the largest inner fan leaves around day 21 of flower. A small oscillating fan below the canopy makes a real difference in the last month.

Flowering and harvest cues

Watch the trichomes from day 56 and harvest when most are cloudy with 15% to 20% amber for the full, sleepy effect. Dry slowly for 12 to 14 days at 60% humidity in a cool, dark room, then cure for at least three weeks. The vanilla cream note deepens with time and is at its best after a month in the jar.

Sherb Cream Pie yield indoors and outdoors

Indoors, a trained canopy or a sea of green returns 450 to 550 g/m² of heavy, dense buds. Outdoors in a mild coastal or southern Ontario season, expect 500 to 700 g per plant. The large, frosty flowers and heavy resin make it a favourite for rosin, and the trim is worth keeping.

Who Sherb Cream Pie is for, and who should pick something else

Grow Sherb Cream Pie if you want a calm, sleepy night-time strain, love vanilla and citrus dessert flavours, or have a small tent and want a compact plant with serious bag appeal. Sherb Cream Pie feminized seeds fit a 120 cm tent without constant pruning.

Pick something else if you need a daytime or social strain, want to grow outdoors in a region with a short, wet autumn, or prefer a lighter, fruitier sherbet cross such as Sherb Cake.

How Sherb Cream Pie compares

Ice Cream Cake, its creamy parent, is heavier on vanilla and lighter on citrus. Sunset Sherbet, the source of the Sherb Bx1 side, is fruitier and more balanced. Permanent Marker shares the Sherb Bx1 parent but trades the cream for a sharp floral funk and more THC. Sherbanger pairs Sunset Sherbet with sour gas for a livelier effect. Among our indica feminized seeds, Sherb Cream Pie is the dessert strain we suggest for bedtime.

Frequently asked questions about Sherb Cream Pie

What strain is Sherb Cream Pie?

Sherb Cream Pie is an indica dominant hybrid, about 70% indica, most often bred from Ice Cream Cake and Sherb Bx1. It is known for a vanilla cream and citrus aroma, purple buds and a slow, sleepy effect, and it usually tests 20% to 28% THC.

Is Sherb Cream Pie indica or sativa?

Sherb Cream Pie is indica dominant. It begins with a soft, happy mood and builds into a heavy, relaxing body effect that often ends in sleep. It is best kept for the evening or night rather than social or daytime use.

What does Sherb Bx1 mean?

Sherb Bx1 means Sunset Sherbet backcrossed one time. Breeders cross a Sunset Sherbet offspring back to the original plant to lock in its fruity, creamy traits. Sherb Bx1 is a parent of Sherb Cream Pie, Permanent Marker and several other modern strains.

How strong is Sherb Cream Pie?

Sherb Cream Pie usually tests between 20% and 28% THC, with CBD below 1%. It is strong and slow to build, so the full effect can take thirty minutes or more to arrive. Most people find one small session enough for a relaxed, sleepy evening.
