Old Cookies
Also known as: Old School Cookies, OG Cookies
Old Cookies Strain Overview
Old Cookies is a hybrid cannabis strain that represents a classic phenotype of the original Girl Scout Cookies lineage. This particular expression maintains the genetic characteristics of earlier Cookie strains before extensive breeding created numerous modern variations. The strain is believed to have been preserved by cultivators who favored its traditional expression over newer hybridized versions that emerged in the 2010s.
Visually, Old Cookies typically displays dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dark green foliage contrasted by vibrant orange pistils. The nugs are often coated in a thick layer of trichomes that give them a frosty, crystalline appearance. The strain's aroma profile is complex, combining sweet, earthy notes with hints of mint and spice, while the flavor often includes undertones of chocolate and citrus.
Old Cookies is noted for its balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain has maintained popularity among enthusiasts who appreciate traditional Cookie genetics without the extreme potency or specific terpene profiles that characterize many modern Cookie hybrids. Its genetic stability makes it a reliable choice for both recreational users and medical patients seeking consistent effects.

Old Cookies Strain Growing Information
Old Cookies is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid-October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments but prefers a controlled indoor setting where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Old Cookies responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and maintain proper air circulation to prevent mold, particularly in the dense buds during late flowering.
