If you want to step up your game and experience a next-level high, then look no further than GSC (formerly known as Girl Scout Cookies). This Cannabis Cup award-winning strain is a mixture of OG Kush and Durban Poison and is perfect as anightcap.
GSC, sometimes referred to as Berner Cookies or Berner’s Cookies, owes its popularity to San Francisco-based cannabis mogul and rapper Berner (Gilbert Millam Jr). Berner claims to have originated the strain through his growing collective, Cookie Fam. Berner’s clever branding and distribution through Wiz Khalifa made Cookies a staple strain across the United States. The result of crossing two already popular strains, GSC boasts an average THC content of 25% to 28% and CBD and CBN levels of 1%.
Appearance, Aroma, and Taste of Girl Scout Cookies
GSC is not just powerful, it is also visually appealing and packed with flavor. Upon opening the bag, the sweet, earthy aromas fill your senses and intensify as you break apart the buds. The light green buds with purple hues, fiery orange hairs, and bright purple leaves are sure to leave a lasting impression.
Effects of Girl Scout Cookies
The GSC high is an intense wave of euphoria that will leave you feeling tingles all over your body. The potent buds will have you questioning reality and glued to your seat. Be warned, the couch lock is real and so are the munchies, so make sure to have a box of actual Girl Scout cookies nearby. The hours-long high will have you feeling giddy, introspective, and creative. However, don’t expect to be productive as this strain will leave you feeling completely relaxed.
GSC also has several medical benefits that make it a great option for those in need. It is known to treat chronic pain, inflammation, muscle tension, and cramps with its highly sedative properties. Additionally, it is a great stress-reliever that can help you unwind and get a good night’s sleep.
Growing Girl Scout Cookies
Growing GSC can be done through various methods, but Cookie Fam suggests using the SOG technique indoors with either a soil or hydro setup. The flowering time is approximately 10 weeks or until the buds are plump and plentiful. The yield is about average, but in ideal conditions, you may be able to get a bit extra.
There are several phenotypes of this strain, including Thin Mint and Platinum Cookies, but GSC stands out with its bright purple leafiness and twisting greenery. Additionally, its THC content truly makes it a one-of-a-kind experience that you won’t want to miss.
