Galactic Cookies
Also known as: Galactic GSC, GC
Galactic Cookies Strain Overview
Galactic Cookies is a modern, cookies-forward hybrid celebrated for its dense, frosty flowers, confectionary aroma, and balanced-yet-potent effects. In many retail menus, it also appears as Galactic GSC or simply GC, reflecting its tight connection to the broader Cookies family. This rare indica-dominant hybrid strain is created through crossing Face Off OG and Girl Scout Cookies strains, though some sources report it as bred by crossing La Cookies and Blackberry Cookies cannabis strains. While its breeder remains a mystery, multiple breeders and clone-only cuts have circulated under the Galactic Cookies label, which explains occasional differences in flavor emphasis and effect tone. The most commonly reported parental frameworks involve Girl Scout Cookies crossed with Space Queen or with a Starfighter-leaning selection.
Galactic Cookies buds have spade-shaped forest green nugs with long light amber hairs and a coating of bright white amber-tinted crystal trichomes. The flower is forest green, highlighted by orange pistils and starry trichomes. The aroma is very pungent and earthy with a dank herbal effect that turns spicy and skunky as the nugs are burned. This bud has a sweet herbal nutty flavor that turns slightly dank upon exhale. By the late 2010s, Galactic Cookies became a boutique menu staple in some regions, particularly where Cookies-derived cultivars sell briskly. The strain's momentum is sustained by repeat buyers who prize its balance of comfort and clarity at moderate doses.

Galactic Cookies Strain Growing Information
Ideally, the Galactic Cookies plants should be grown by expert growers, but beginners can try themselves with this weed. Having a flowering window of 63-69 days, growers will be able to pick the large yield of 15-20 ounces per plant only in 76 days, even though the Galactic Cookies cannabis grows well both indoors and outdoors. Its dense buds can make it susceptible to bud rot and reach over 90 inches only in outdoor conditions. Galactic Cookies has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks and can produce a high yield of up to 500 grams per square meter. Indoor yields for Galactic Cookies typically range from 450 to 600 grams per square meter under 900–1100 µmol/m²/s flowering light intensity and proper training. Outdoor or greenhouse plants, given full-season sun and trellising, can produce 500–900 grams per plant depending on climate and cultivar vigor. This strain responds well to low-stress training techniques, such as topping or pruning, to increase yield.
