About These Strains

Cookies and Cream

Hybrid 60/40 — THC 24–28%

Cookies and Cream is an evenly balanced hybrid (60% indica/40% sativa) strain created through a cross of Starfighter X Unknown Girl Scout Cookies phenotype. This tasty bud took 1st Place for Best Hybrid in the 2014 Denver Cannabis Cup for its insanely delicious flavor and powerhouse hybrid effects.

The Cookies and Cream flavor is very much like the name suggests, with tastes of sweet vanilla and nutty earth topped with creamy butter.

Thin Mint Cookies

Hybrid 50/50 — THC 22–26%

That combination makes for a potent, near even balance of sativa and indica genes (exact sativa/indica ratio unclear).
