Girl Scout Kush
Also known as: GSC Kush, Girl Scout Cookies Kush
Girl Scout Kush Strain Overview
Girl Scout Kush is a potent hybrid cannabis strain that represents a kush-dominant phenotype of the famous Girl Scout Cookies (GSC) strain. This variant emerged from the California cannabis scene in the early 2010s as breeders sought to combine the exceptional flavor profile of Girl Scout Cookies with the heavier, more sedating effects characteristic of OG Kush varieties. The strain gained popularity among medical and recreational users for its balanced yet powerful effects and complex terpene profile.
The plant typically produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dark green leaves contrasted by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosted appearance. The buds are often compact and tightly structured, reflecting its indica-dominant heritage. The coloration can sometimes include purple hues, particularly when grown in cooler temperatures, adding to its visual appeal.
Girl Scout Kush is noted for its complex aroma and flavor profile that combines sweet, earthy, and diesel notes. The strain has become particularly valued by extract artists and concentrate producers due to its high resin production and terpene content. While less famous than its parent Girl Scout Cookies, this kush phenotype has developed a dedicated following among consumers seeking a more physically relaxing experience than the original GSC provides.

Girl Scout Kush Strain Growing Information
Girl Scout Kush is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The plant has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready in late September to early October. Indoor growers can expect moderate to high yields with proper care, while outdoor plants in suitable climates can produce substantial harvests.
The plant tends to maintain a manageable height, usually staying between 3-5 feet tall when grown indoors, making it suitable for limited space grows. It responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods. Growers should provide good air circulation to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The strain benefits from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration. Preferred growing conditions include a stable environment with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity levels during flowering.
