Temptation strain guide
Temptation is a hybrid from LIT Farms, a cross of Ice Cream Cake and Jealousy. People know it for a sweet, creamy smell with berries and a gassy edge, and for a balanced feel that many describe as creative and energized without being too much for the body.
Where does Temptation come from?
Temptation was bred by LIT Farms, and its parents are given as Ice Cream Cake and Jealousy. That puts a lot of dessert genetics in its background: Ice Cream Cake comes from Wedding Cake and Gelato #33, and Jealousy from Gelato 41 and Sherbert Bx1.
You may also see it as Temptation F2 or F3, which are later generations of the same line, and some menus write it as Temptations.
What does Temptation smell and taste like?
Expect sweet and creamy first, with vanilla and berry, then a fuel-like note underneath. Reviewers also mention diesel, blueberry and strawberry.
One strain database's page names limonene as the dominant terpene in one place and caryophyllene in another, with pinene also present. No lab breakdown is published beyond that, so treat the order as uncertain.
Temptation effects: what people report
People most often describe Temptation as euphoric and creative, with an energized head and a relaxed body. Many save it for the afternoon or evening rather than the morning.
These are reports, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your tolerance. Dry mouth and dry eyes are the common complaints, and some people mention feeling paranoid or finding it stronger than expected.
How strong is Temptation?
Published numbers range from about 20% THC on one strain database to 29% on a product listing, with little CBD. That database also lists about 1% CBG.
Given that range, go slowly if it's new to you and read the label for your batch. Our guide to reading cannabis labels covers what the numbers mean.
Buying Temptation in Canada
Check who grew it and whether it's listed as Temptation, Temptation F2 or F3. They come from the same Ice Cream Cake and Jealousy line, but different generations and cuts can smell and feel a bit different.
If you find it, compare the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower keeps more of that creamy, gassy smell.
Temptation vs Jealousy
Jealousy is one of Temptation's parents. Both share a sweet, creamy base with a fuel-like edge, but Temptation adds Ice Cream Cake's vanilla and berry, so it reads as more dessert-like. Jealousy is often described as calm in the head without locking you to the couch, while Temptation gets called more energized and creative. If you like Jealousy's creamy gas, Temptation is a natural next step with extra sweetness.
