What is the Peppermint Cookies strain?
Peppermint Cookies is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and bakery and earthy flavor profile.
Peppermint Cookies is a distinctive indica-leaning hybrid strain that represents a special phenotype of the legendary Girl Scout Cookies cultivar. Originally developed and exclusively grown by Gold Leaf Gardens in Washington, this unique variety gained significant recognition by winning Best Hybrid at the 2015 DOPE Cup in Seattle. The strain is characterized by its dense, small to medium-sized buds that display the classic indica structure with tightly-packed spherical clusters. The flowers showcase an attractive color palette featuring forest green nugs with prominent orange pistils, often displaying subtle purple hues in the leaves when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The buds are heavily coated with sticky white trichomes and visible droplets of sweet resin, giving them a distinctive dewy appearance.
As a phenotype of Girl Scout Cookies, Peppermint Cookies inherits the genetic lineage of Durban Poison and OG Kush, combining the uplifting sativa qualities of Durban Poison with the relaxing indica effects of OG Kush. This unique genetic combination, refined through careful phenotype selection by Gold Leaf Gardens, has created a strain with enhanced minty characteristics that set it apart from other GSC varieties. The strain's potency typically ranges from 19-24% THC, making it suitable for both experienced consumers and those seeking strong therapeutic effects.

How do you grow Peppermint Cookies?

The strain inherits Girl Scout Cookies' growing characteristics, featuring short, bushy, indica-leaning plants that are well-suited for indoor cultivation. Flowering time is 8-9 weeks with decent yields under ideal conditions. Plants thrive in both indoor and outdoor environments, though outdoor cultivation requires a semi-humid, Mediterranean-like climate.
