Lime Cake is a modern hybrid strain with a lineage that remains largely undocumented. While it carries clear markers of its parentage from Triangle Mints, its exact origins and the specific breeder behind its genetic development have not been publicly confirmed. This lack of exhaustive documentation is common among modern hybrids, leaving its early cultivation history a subject of speculation rather than verified record.
The chemical profile of Lime Cake is defined by its diverse terpene expression, which is dominated by caryophyllene, followed by myrcene, limonene, linalool, humulene, bisabolol, and beta-pinene. This complex combination contributes to a sensory profile that is aromatic and nuanced. Physically, the strain is an estimated THC-dominant variety, with laboratory data suggesting an estimated average potency of approximately 15.3% THC. Gardeners will find the strain moderately difficult to cultivate, though it rewards that effort with a high yield. It is well-suited for both indoor and outdoor environments, reaching maturity after a 63-day flowering period.
Users typically report that Lime Cake provides a balanced experience, characterized by effects that are relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These qualities make the strain a common choice for managing stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. Despite its presence in the modern genetic landscape, there are currently no recorded notable offspring traced back to this particular hybrid.

Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy
anytimeuplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
Genetic Profile
Balanced Hybrid
Equal indica and sativa genetics. Balanced body and mind effects.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
