Animal Cookies Strain History & Genetics

Hailing from the Great White North, Animal Cookies strain (Girl Scout Cookies x Fire OG) was bred by Canadian seed bank BC Bud Depot.  Its breeders had an award-winning GSC strain on hand. They were trying to improve on this highly-prized hybrid strain.

In the end, they managed to retain GSC’s signature cookie flavor with a stronger potency meant for heavy and medicinal users.

Trim the stems to stimulate lateral growth and the large fan leaves to give your buds in lower branches plenty of light. Regular pruning also produces a better airflow between the buds and canopy to avoid mold and allow your plant to thrive.

Due to its pungent smell, you may want to invest in a carbon filter ventilation system.
