Ice Latte is a plant that defies autoflower logic, delivering sky-high THC %, huge yields, and golf-ball-sized dense nugs absolutely iced in trichomes! It's a big-yielding, power-packed autoflower strain. The team at Speedrun Seeds once again delivers a plant that absolutely shatters the idea that autos are inferior to photoperiods.
As the name suggests, when enjoyed, Iced Latte brings together a complex, creamy, spicy, and gassy profile, heavily leaning on the funky OG lineage that precedes it. If you are a Kush lover, then you don’t want to miss Iced Latte.
Origin Story: One Massive Pheno Hunt!
The Story starts in 2021, after a huge pheno hunt of over 5000 Vanilla Latte plants outdoor, a prized cultivar by renowned breeders at Humboldt Seed Company. Ben and the team from Speedrun Seeds carefully selected the two phenotypes that he wanted to work with. Yes, you read right: 2 out of 5000 were kept and stabilised. One of these winners was crossed with 00 Kush (from 00 Seed Bank) to create Iced Latte.
“We were able to identify and select a rare phenotype that only occurred around once every 800 plants. We were looking for trichome density, large trichome heads, and large buds with tight internodal structure.”
Spicy, Creamy OG with Grapefruit Haze Goodness
If you are looking for a creamy OG with sweet citrus notes and that chem-gas that we all love, then Iced Latte is the strain for you. The terpene profile is rich and complex, beginning with pungent, spicy, and creamy notes and ending with a grapefruit and citrus peel afterglow. It’s a superbly crafted blend of old-school gas with notes of modern sweetness:
“The pairing of 00 Kush and the stabilized Vanilla Latte, two carefully selected parents, produced a deeply complex terpene profile with just the amount of funk and flavor we were hoping to achieve. Expect creamy gassy notes of coffee, black pepper, diesel, and skunk alongside more hazey/floral notes of grapefruit and lime.”
Iced Latte’s Effects: The Perfect 50/50 Hybrid
This strain hits the spot. Functional enough to be your daily driver and strong enough (32% THC) to put you down (if what you are looking for). Iced Latte is the kind of strain you will love for its versatility. The effects are both relaxing and energizing as it offers a perfect 50/50 indica-sativa profile, making it a perfect daily cannabis strain. Users report stress and pain-relieving qualities, making it a reliable strain for anyone looking to unwind without being knocked out.
“The effect profile is a perfect balance of relaxing and calming indica effects, and a more sativa side, good for staying on-task, motivated, and uplifted.”

Not only are they packed with power and flavor these plants can also take pretty hefty nutrient loads, meaning less stress for you. "We called 'Iced’ latte because it legitimately looks like it is covered in ice. It is one of the frostiest autoflower strains we've produced, with uniquely large trichome heads which make this strain excellent for hash extraction."Who doesn’t want a super frosty plant that almost grows itself, delivers big, strong, and terpy buds fast? Iced Latte is truly a “Set it and forget it” autoflowering cannabis plant that, in two and a half months, will go from seed to flower (or hash) without any hassle.
