Wookiez
Also known as: Wookies, Wookie
Wookiez Strain Overview
Wookiez is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Bodhi Seeds that has gained popularity for its unique terpene profile and balanced effects. The strain was created by crossing the indica-dominant hybrid Appalachia (Green Crack x Tres Dawg) with the legendary indica strain Wookie (a phenotype of the original Wookie, which itself is a cross of Afghani and Hawaiian genetics). This lineage combines the uplifting cerebral effects of Appalachia with the deeply relaxing physical properties of Wookie, resulting in a well-rounded hybrid that appeals to both recreational and medicinal users.
The strain is characterized by its dense, resinous buds that display a striking appearance with deep purple hues often emerging in cooler temperatures, contrasted by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of trichomes. Wookiez typically produces medium to tall plants with a branching structure that benefits from training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize yield. The strain's name references its distinctive aroma profile, which many users describe as having sweet, earthy, and sometimes spicy notes reminiscent of the fictional Star Wars species.
Wookiez has become particularly noted within cannabis connoisseur circles for its complex flavor profile and reliable effects. While not as commercially widespread as some mainstream strains, it has maintained a dedicated following since its introduction in the early 2010s. Breeders and growers appreciate its relatively stable genetics and consistent expression of desirable traits, making it a solid choice for those seeking a balanced hybrid with distinctive characteristics.

Wookiez Strain Growing Information
Wookiez is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for intermediate growers. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields are average to above average (400-500 grams per square meter with optimal conditions), while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can be grown outdoors in Mediterranean climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to reach medium to tall heights (4-6 feet indoors, 6-8 feet outdoors) and benefit from training techniques to manage height and improve light penetration. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to moisture issues. The strain responds well to organic nutrients and may display enhanced purple coloration when exposed to cooler nighttime temperatures during the final weeks of flowering.
