Cookie Dough Strain

Cookie Dough inherits its potency and flavor profiles from its parent strains, Girl Scout Cookies, and Durban Poison, by combining the best qualities of both parents to create a potent sedating hybrid. It emerged on the scene in 2011 in the San Francisco Bay Area and has since become a staple of West Coast dispensaries.

Medical marijuana patients who enjoy Cookie Dough describe its effects as inducing a feeling of euphoria, happiness, relaxation, and pleasure. Users say that the herb helps them deal with pain, anxiety, and stress while also providing a deep-rooted sense of calm.

The downside effects of Cookie Dough include dry mouth, dizziness, paranoia, and confusion. THC levels in this hybrid are known to reach over 20 percent, making it one of the strongest strains available for purchase legally. Its sweet aftertaste is accompanied by a distinct earthy aroma that is reminiscent of fresh herbs and spices.

Growing this strain requires patience and skill, as it is a slow-growing plant that takes considerable time to mature. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors, although indoor plants tend to be more convenient for growers since they are easier to control and provide a high yield of potent buds.

The flowering time of Cookie Dough is significantly longer than other popular strains. This makes it ideal for those who want to maximize their yields of potent buds but aren’t ready for a plant to spend all summer growing before they can harvest it. It usually takes around 11 weeks to grow this strain from seed to harvest, although some growers have reported that it can take up to 14 weeks.
