Also known as: Milan Mints
Milano Mints Strain Overview
Milano Mints is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies with an undisclosed mint variety. The strain emerged in the late 2010s as part of the 'mint' and 'cookies' breeding trends that gained popularity in North American cannabis markets. Breeders sought to combine the potent effects and complex flavor profile of the Girl Scout Cookies lineage with refreshing mint characteristics, resulting in this balanced hybrid.
The strain is characterized by dense, conical buds with a minty green coloration often accented by purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The flowers are typically coated in a generous layer of frosty trichomes, giving them a sugar-coated appearance. Milano Mints exhibits a compact, bushy growth structure inherited from its indica-dominant parentage, with dark green leaves that may show purple pigmentation.
Notable features include its distinctive aroma profile that combines sweet, dessert-like notes with sharp mint undertones. The strain has gained recognition for its balanced effects that provide both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Milano Mints has developed a following among connoisseurs who appreciate its unique flavor combination and reliable effects.

Milano Mints Strain Growing Information
Milano Mints is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor harvest typically occurs in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also be grown outdoors in Mediterranean or similar climates with consistent temperatures.
Indoor plants usually reach heights of 90-120 cm, while outdoor plants can grow taller, up to 150-180 cm. Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant. The strain benefits from techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture retention. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers noting sensitivity to overfeeding.
