Overview
Chem Cookies is an indica-dominant hybrid strain created by crossing Chemdog #4 and Girl Scout Cookies (GSC), two legendary cannabis strains that have gained iconic status in the cannabis community. Originally developed by Divine Genetics, this award-winning strain has gained recognition in the cannabis community, earning multiple Cannabis Cup titles and establishing itself as one of the breeder's signature creations. Known for its exceptional potency with THC levels typically ranging from 22% to 30%, Chem Cookies represents one of the more potent indica-dominant hybrids available to consumers.
Physically, Chem Cookies produces visually striking buds with grape-shaped elongated bright neon green nugs featuring dark purple leaves, thin orange hairs, and a coating of tiny blue-tinted white crystal trichomes. The strain offers a complex flavor profile that genuinely lives up to its name, featuring a delicious combination of sweet chocolate and nuts with banana, earth, and diesel accents, complemented by rich hints of coffee and notes of sweet plums. The aroma profile includes sweet and nutty banana-like undertones accented by chemicals and spicy coffee, with a lightly sweet banana overtone kicked up by heavy spiciness and sharp punches of savory diesel. This strain is also known by alternative names including Garlic Cookies and is sometimes called GMO Cookies.
