How to Grow Cheese Cream CBD
Searched as Cheese Cream CBD and listed in the catalog as CBD Cream Cheese (1:1) at Blimburn Seeds, this is the heavyweight of the CBD line: 18-22% CBD matched by an equal 18-22% THC. Most balanced cultivars achieve their ratio by lowering the THC; this one raised the CBD to meet full modern potency, and the difference matters both in the jar and in the planning.
The genetics read simply, CBD x UK Cheese, and deliver exactly what the second parent promises: the famous funk of the Exodus cutting that built the whole family of skunk strains, wrapped in a creamy sweetness and carried by a 55% sativa plant with genuine ambitions. It tops out at 6.56 ft, which makes height management part of the job description.

CBD Cream Cheese at a Glance
The numbers that shape the grow, straight from the product page.
| Type | CBD Feminized (photoperiod) |
| Lineage | CBD x UK Cheese |
| Phenotype | 45% Indica / 55% Sativa |
| CBD / THC | 18% – 22% CBD, 18% – 22% THC (1:1) |
| Climate | Temperate |
| Height | Up to 6.56 ft (2 m) |
| Flowering time | 8 – 10 weeks after the flip |
| Harvest month | October |
| Yield indoor | 1.31 oz/ft² (400 g/m²) |
| Yield outdoor | 14.11 – 15.87 oz/plant (400 – 450 g/plant) |
| Effects | Happy, relaxed, talkative |
| Flavors | Cheese, sweet |
A medium yield rating, 400 g/m² indoors and 400-450 grams per plant outside, is dependable rather than spectacular, but remember what those grams contain: flower carrying roughly 40% combined cannabinoids is among the most chemically loaded in the catalog, so every jar goes further than the weight suggests.
Promos & Deals
Getting CBD Cream Cheese Started
Germinate at 70-79°F in paper towels or starter plugs; expect taproots within three days. Pot up in stages toward a 3-5 gallon final container indoors, larger outside. Every feminized seed flowers female, and the early growth already hints at the plant’s plans: strong stems, eager lateral branching and quick vertical pushes between nodes.
Veg under 18 hours of light at 68-81°F with humidity near 50-60%, and keep it short: two to three weeks indoors is plenty. With a 2-meter ceiling written into the genetics, every extra veg week is height you will fight later, and the post-flip stretch supplies more than enough canopy on its own.
Feeding CBD Cream Cheese by EC
Cheese-family plants feed steadily and reward consistency. Track EC, hold pH at 6.0-6.5 in soil, and keep the changes gradual.
| Stage | Weeks | EC | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seedling | 1-2 | 0.4 – 0.6 | Plain water or very light feed |
| Vegetative | 2-3 | 0.8 – 1.2 | Nitrogen-leaning base nutrients |
| Preflower | Flip + 1-2 | 1.2 – 1.4 | Transition feed through the stretch |
| Bloom | Flip + 3-8 | 1.4 – 1.6 | Bloom base, add PK booster |
| Flush | Final 1-2 | 0.0 – 0.4 | Plain pH-corrected water |
The stretch weeks are the hungriest: the plant builds a lot of structure fast and pales if nitrogen drops too early, so hold the transition feed until the vertical push slows. From mid-bloom, shift to phosphorus and potassium and watch calcium under LED lights.
Flush thoroughly in the final two weeks. The creamy sweetness that balances the funk is the first casualty of a mineral-heavy finish, and it is half the strain’s name.
Managing the Height of CBD Cream Cheese
At up to 6.56 ft, this plant outgrows most tents unless you intervene early. The toolkit: a short veg, one topping above the fourth node in week 2, aggressive low-stress training to spread the mains flat, and a flip at just half footprint coverage. Expect the canopy to double after the flip anyway; plan your light height around that reality rather than hoping the plant shows restraint.
Outdoors, let it run. Two meters of 55% sativa frame carrying cheese-dense flower is a handsome sight in a sunny corner, and the height costs nothing where there is sky instead of a ceiling. Stake or cage the main stem early, because October winds and loaded branches are a bad combination, and plant where airflow is honest; cheese genetics bring dense buds that want moving air in the final weeks.
Harvesting and Curing CBD Cream Cheese
Check trichomes from week 7 after the flip and harvest at full cloudy with the first ambers showing. With balanced 1:1 chemistry at this concentration, the cloudy window captures both cannabinoids at their peak while the funk is still bright. Outdoors in a temperate climate the plant finishes in October.
Dry for 10-14 days at 59-68°F and around 55% humidity, then cure in glass for a minimum of three weeks, burping daily at first. The two halves of the profile mature at different speeds: the sweetness is present from the start, while the deep cheese funk builds steadily and peaks around week three or four. Strong jar seals are mandatory; UK Cheese descendants do not whisper.
What to Do With Your Trim
Trim carrying this cannabinoid load is too valuable to discard. Infused butter or oil from CBD Cream Cheese delivers unusually potent balanced edibles, so dose test batches carefully. Hash lovers get the old-school route: cheese-family resin has been prized in ice water hash since the Exodus days, and the trim washes beautifully.
Aroma, Flavor and Terpenes
Six terpenes deliver the cheese-and-sweet signature. Caryophyllene anchors the funk with savory pepper, and myrcene deepens it with earthy musk, the classic one-two punch behind every true cheese profile. Linalool and nerolidol supply the sweet, creamy counterweight, layering floral softness over the sharpness.
The surprise is menthol, a rarity on any terpene list, which adds the cool, fresh edge that makes the cream in the name tangible, like the cold side of a cheesecake. Pinene finishes the arrangement with a clean, resinous thread. The whole profile reads as aged cheese dipped in cream, strange on paper and completely convincing in the jar.
Common Problems and Pro Tips
Cheese Cream CBD is a forgiving grow, but it is a tall 1:1 plant that is fully potent and genuinely loud, so height and smell control come first.
- Control the height: it can reach 2 m, so indoors run a short veg, top it early and train it to keep it manageable; outdoors stake it well in a sunny spot.
- Plan for the smell: its sharp UK Cheese funk gets genuinely loud in flower, so run a carbon filter if you need to keep the grow discreet.
- Treat it as full-strength: it carries 18 to 22% THC alongside its CBD, so it does get you high, so harvest on your trichomes and label the jar clearly.
Expert tip: unlike low-THC CBD strains, this one is a full-potency 1:1, so treat it with the same respect as any modern hybrid. The cheese funk deepens through a three-week cure while the sweetness holds.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Cheese Cream CBD strain?
Cheese Cream CBD is the search name for CBD Cream Cheese (1:1), a feminized cross of a CBD cultivar with UK Cheese sold by Blimburn Seeds. It stands out for carrying 18 to 22% CBD and 18 to 22% THC at once, full potency with an equal CBD counterweight, which is unusual among CBD strains.
Does CBD Cream Cheese get you high?
Yes, properly. Unlike low-THC CBD strains, this one carries 18 to 22% THC, so the experience is complete: happy, relaxed and talkative, with the matching CBD share rounding the edges rather than removing them. Treat it with the same respect as any modern hybrid and start with a small amount.
How tall does CBD Cream Cheese grow?
Up to 6.56 ft (2 m), clearly above tent height if left alone. Indoors, a short veg, early topping and low-stress training keep it manageable; outdoors the height is an asset in any sunny, staked position. Plan your vertical space before you germinate so the stretch does not catch you out.
How long does CBD Cream Cheese take to flower?
Flowering runs 8 to 10 weeks after the switch to 12/12 indoors. In a temperate climate outdoors, plants finish in October, a standard window that avoids the worst autumn risks. Keep air moving through the canopy across that window and check trichomes toward the end for your preferred ripeness.
How much does CBD Cream Cheese yield?
Expect 1.31 oz/ft² (400 g/m²) indoors and 14.11 to 15.87 oz (400 to 450 g) per plant outdoors. Dependable medium harvests, with the exceptional cannabinoid density making each gram count double, so good light and a trained canopy help you make the most of that yield at harvest.
What does CBD Cream Cheese taste like?
Sharp aged cheese over a sweet, creamy base with a faint cool menthol edge, an unmistakable UK Cheese inheritance smoothed by the cream side. The funk deepens through a three-week cure while the sweetness holds steady underneath, so dry slowly and give it that time before judging the flavour.
