GMO Kush is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 33.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and coffee and diesel flavor profile.
GMO, also known as GMO Cookies or Garlic Cookies, is a potent indica-dominant hybrid strain with approximately 90% indica and 10% sativa genetics. Created by crossing Girl Scout Cookies (GSC) with Chemdawg, this strain was originally bred by Mamiko Seeds, though some believe Divine Genetics played a role in its creation. The strain's name has multiple interpretations - sometimes referred to as "garlic, mushrooms, onion" or "genetically modified organism," though nobody knows the true origins of the name. The GMO name actually stands for Garlic, Mushroom, and Onion, referring to its unique flavor profile. GMO has gained tremendous popularity in the cannabis community for its exceptionally high THC levels reaching around 30% and distinctive pungent aroma reminiscent of garlic and onions. The strain produces lush green buds coated in crystal trichomes and fiery orange pistils, making it visually striking. Even with its controversial name, this indica-dominant strain was praised as one of the best new strains in 2017.

How do you grow GMO Kush?
GMO Cookies is moderately challenging to grow and is best suited for experienced cultivators. The primary challenge for growers is finding feminized seeds, so most growers end up using photoperiod seeds or clones. Indoor flowering time is typically 9-10 weeks, while outdoor harvest occurs in late October. It thrives in warm, humid climates with temperatures ranging from 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit and requires 18-24 hours of light during vegetative phase and 12 hours when flowering. Indoor yields can reach up to 500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce up to 1000 grams per plant. Indoor growers should control plant height as stretch can be considerable, while outdoor growers need sunny conditions and should avoid overly humid environments during flowering. Dense flowers may trap humidity, so maintaining low humidity during flowering is essential.
