Animism
Animism
Overview
Animism is a rare indica-dominant hybrid strain (70% indica/30% sativa) developed by Gage Green Genetics through a cross of Animal Cookies Norcal clone and Joseph. The strain takes its philosophical name from the belief that everything possesses a soul, reflecting the breeder's spiritual approach to cannabis cultivation. Animal Cookies, one of the parent strains, is an acclaimed hybrid of Girl Scout Cookies and Fire OG known for its potent effects and dense resin production. The other parent, Joseph, is a notable male phenotype discovered as a 'bag seed' from an Underdawg OG batch, specifically selected for its pronounced OG and diesel-dominant traits, superior structure, and vigorous growth characteristics.
Animism produces dense, heavy buds with dark olive green coloration and rich purple undertones. The flowers are adorned with clear purplish hairs and coated in purple-tinted crystal trichomes that create a frosty appearance. The strain is particularly noted for its heavy resin production, with every sugar leaf densely coated in trichomes. This visual appeal is matched by a complex aromatic profile featuring kush and asphalt notes with a distinctive dash of lime, alongside sour citrus undertones and notable diesel and fuel accents. The strain can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 60 days (8-9 weeks), producing medium yields with dense calyx formations and sappy resin rails.

Growing Information
Animism can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 60 days (8-9 weeks). The strain produces medium yields with dense, resin-heavy buds featuring sappy resin rails and dense calyx formations. It yields heavier than some comparable Forum cuts and displays the kush-leaning characteristics inherited from its Animal Cookies parent. The plant benefits from the vigorous growth traits of its Joseph male parent, which was specifically selected for superior structure and immunity. Growers should expect heavy resin production throughout the plant, with every sugar leaf becoming densely coated in trichomes. The strain has never been available as feminized seeds and requires regular breeding practices. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation with proper environmental controls.
