Black Cherry Pound Cake

Cannabis Strain by Bred by 42

Introduction
Black Cherry Pound Cake from Bred by 42 extends the breeder's exploration of dark cherry genetics into the pound cake aromatic territory—combining the dark, berry-rich intensity of black cherry cannabis with the dense, buttery sweetness of pound cake-themed genetics. This mostly indica creation completes in approximately 60 days.

Lineage
**Genetic Lineage** Bred by 42 has established a pattern of creating deliberate aromatic contrast crosses—as seen in their Black Berry OG x Golden Lemons—and Black Cherry Pound Cake follows this philosophy by pairing dark cherry depth with the rich, buttery dessert profile of pound cake genetics. Pound cake in cannabis breeding typically references sweet, dense, buttery aromatic profiles achieved through vanilla-adjacent terpene combinations and creamy depth. Combined with black cherry genetics' dark berry intensity and Afghani indica depth, the result is a variety that moves between dark fruit and rich butter-cake sweetness in a compound aromatic statement.

Terpenes
**Terpene Profile** Black Cherry Pound Cake's terpene profile combines the dark cherry register with pound cake sweetness: myrcene provides the earthy fruit foundation; limonene contributes cherry brightness and citrus-adjacent sweetness; linalool adds the floral quality that bridges berry and creamy cake aromatics; beta-caryophyllene spice adds depth that prevents the sweetness from becoming cloying. The pound cake element introduces vanilla-adjacent richness and buttery depth that grounds the dark cherry expression in a full, dessert-complete aromatic experience.

Growth
**Growth Characteristics** Black Cherry Pound Cake completes in approximately 60 days of flowering, a moderate timeline reflecting the indica-dominant heritage. Bred by 42's craft approach emphasizes phenotype selection for genuine aromatic expression. The combination of dark cherry and pound cake genetics suggests compact to medium plant structure with dense, resinous flowers and strong aromatic output. Both indoor and outdoor cultivation are appropriate for this indica-leaning variety.

Effects
**Reported Effects & Experience** The mostly indica character of Black Cherry Pound Cake delivers the physical relaxation and body comfort typical of dark cherry genetics alongside the euphoric warmth characteristic of dessert-themed craft cannabis. Bred by 42's quality-focused approach ensures effect consistency matches aromatic complexity. The dense, buttery-sweet aromatic experience parallels a full-bodied physical effect profile suited to evening relaxation.
