Sour Cookies
Also known as: Sour Garlic Cookies, GSC x Sour Diesel
Overview
Sour Cookies is a hybrid cannabis strain that results from a cross between two beloved strains: Sour Diesel and Girl Scout Cookies. Typically referred to as a balanced hybrid, Sour Cookies exhibits traits from both its indica and sativa origins, though effects lean slightly toward the sativa side (45% Indica / 55% Sativa) due to Sour Diesel's influence. With a family tree that includes legendary names such as Durban Poison, Northern Lights, and Chemdawg, Sour Cookies strain has a tough act to follow, and it does so spectacularly. Sour Cookies is a Mamiko Seeds creation, specifically using the Riri Cut of Reservoir Seeds' Sour Diesel crossed with the ever popular Girl Scout Cookies. The strain has gained significant popularity among cannabis enthusiasts for its unique combination of flavors and effects.
Sour Cookies is said to taste like a nice nutty cookie rolled in sour diesel – strangely pleasant and odd at the same time. This bud has long forest green pepper-shaped nugs with sparse light amber hairs and a coating of tiny crystal trichomes. The buds of Sour Cookies are remarkably dense and tightly packed, rock hard, soaked in resin and often have a crystalline sheen due to the amount of trichomes. The flowering period of 8-9 weeks is typical for many strains, yet Sour Cookies distinguishes itself with the potential high THC content and rewarding yields. The flowering period of Sour Cookies weed is 45 to 60 days which is relatively short for its healthy yield. The strain is noted for being a creeper that can sneak up on users, making dosage control important for optimal experiences.
