What is the Garlic Breath strain?

Garlic Breath is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.

Garlic Breath is a super rare indica-dominant hybrid strain created through crossing GMO (Garlic Cookies) and Mendo Breath. Originally bred by ThugPug Genetics around 2016, this strain has gained significant popularity within the cannabis community for its distinctive characteristics. Named for its surprisingly garlicky flavor, Garlic Breath is a favorite of indica lovers for its super calming high that's perfect for a late night when you just can't seem to get to sleep. The strain has spade-shaped minty green nugs with bright orange hairs and a sandy coating of amber crystal trichomes. Garlic Breath has a deliciously savory garlic and herbs flavor that lingers long after your final toke. The aroma is of sharp pungent chemicals with a notable punch of earthy garlic and herbs. This cultivar has become increasingly sought-after despite its rarity, with at least 36 direct descendants documented in the seedfinder strain database, demonstrating its significant impact on modern cannabis breeding programs.

Indoor yields range from 5-12 ounces per square meter (1-2 oz/ft²), while outdoor plants can produce 15-20 ounces per plant.
