Custard is a modern hybrid-sativa strain derived from Animal Cookies. Developed for consistent performance in both indoor and outdoor settings, this variety exhibits a moderate cultivation difficulty and maintains a high yield potential throughout a 62-day flowering cycle. Its genetic lineage acts as the foundation for subsequent varieties such as Ya Sisters Cream Pie, which inherits its structural characteristics.

The chemical profile of Custard is defined by a complex arrangement of terpenes, led by caryophyllene, limonene, and humulene. Broadening the sensory experience are secondary notes of linalool, bisabolol, nerolidol, beta-pinene, valencene, and ocimene, with trace contributions from pinene, myrcene, caryophyllene-oxide, borneol, camphene, terpinolene, eucalyptol, and geraniol. This diverse composition results in a distinct organoleptic profile that reflects its specific chemical dominance.

As a THC-dominant cultivar, Custard produces effects characterized by creativity, an uplifted mood, and happiness. These traits make the strain a functional choice for users seeking to enhance social interactions, focus, or creative endeavors. The profile of this cultivar supports its application in various settings where these specific outcomes are desired.
