The Frostiest Cannabis Strains 🌨️✨Updated 2 hours ago

Some growers love chasing big yields, others seek unique flavors — and some are on the hunt for the frostiest, trichome-heavy strains. If your goal is to harvest buds that sparkle like crushed glass, here are some of the best options available at Homegrown Cannabis Co.

Why Frost Matters

Trichomes are the tiny, crystal-like glands that cover cannabis buds. They contain cannabinoids and terpenes, which drive potency, aroma, and flavor. More frost usually means higher resin production — perfect for growers who love hash, concentrates, or simply sticky, glittering flowers.

Frostiest Strains at Homegrown

Frosted Gelato 41 Feminized
Expect buds that look dusted in powdered sugar. Resin production is off the charts, and the plant thrives indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of 8–10 weeks.

Mystic Gorilla Autoflower
This automatic variety stacks on thick, resin-coated colas with minimal effort. A great pick if you want frost without managing a full photoperiod grow.

Jealousy Glue Feminized
Dense, sticky buds that “sparkle like a disco ball.” Perfect for growers aiming to fill jars with resin-rich harvests.

Granddaddy Purple Feminized
Classic purple hues with a shimmering layer of trichomes. Known for bag appeal and reliable performance.

Chemdawg #4 Feminized
Sharp aromas with resin-heavy flowers that finish in 8–10 weeks. A long-time favorite for frosty harvests.

Gorilla Glue #4 Autoflower
Sticky, gluey, and resin-packed. Autoflowering genetics mean you’ll see frost fast — typically in under 10 weeks from seed.

Tips to Maximize Frost ❄️

  • Keep temps slightly cooler late in flower to encourage trichome development.

  • Reduce humidity to avoid mold while letting resin glands expand fully.

  • Avoid overfeeding nitrogen during bloom, which can suppress resin production.

  • Gentle handling at harvest preserves trichome heads.
