Cookie Dawg
Cookie Dawg
Also known as: Dawg Cookies, Dog Cookies, Cookie Dog
Overview
Cookie Dawg is a highly regarded indica-dominant hybrid strain created by crossing two cannabis legends: Girl Scout Cookies and Chemdawg (also known as Chemdog). This strain typically exhibits a 70% indica to 30% sativa ratio, though some phenotypes may lean even more heavily toward indica genetics. The strain has gained significant popularity among cannabis connoisseurs for its potent effects and complex flavor profile that masterfully balances sweet cookie-like notes with diesel undertones.
The buds of Cookie Dawg are visually striking, featuring dense, popcorn-shaped nuggets with a predominantly bluish-green coloration accented by vibrant orange pistils. The flowers are generously coated in a thick layer of milky amber trichomes, giving them a frosty, crystalline appearance that hints at their high potency. The strain's aroma is complex and pungent, combining the sweet herbaceous scent of its Girl Scout Cookies parentage with the chemical, diesel-like notes inherited from Chemdawg.
Cookie Dawg has been bred by multiple seed companies and breeders, with variations including crosses with Peanut Butter Cookies and Kosher Dawg by some breeders like Tastebudz Genetics. The strain has spawned numerous offspring and variants, including Lemon Dog Cookies, Purple Cookie Dawg, and Watermelon Cookie Dawg, demonstrating its genetic versatility and desirable breeding characteristics.

Growing Information
Cookie Dawg is considered moderately easy to grow, making it suitable for cultivators with some experience. The strain has a relatively short flowering time of 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready by late September to mid-October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor plants reach a manageable height of 60-80 inches (5-7 feet), while outdoor plants can exceed 90 inches. Indoor yields range from 300-500 grams per square meter, with outdoor plants capable of producing 400-600 grams per plant or up to 1000 grams under optimal conditions. The strain thrives in warm, temperate climates and responds well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Plants develop dense, resinous buds with heavy trichome production, requiring good airflow and humidity control to prevent mold issues.
