GSC Benefits/Effects
This powerful hybrid can take you through many different situations, and is ideal for rounding off the day with a sweet, stress-busting high. Girl Scout Cookie Seeds extreme THC go a long way, and they have won numerous Cannabis Cup awards to prove their potency.
Girl Scout Cookies offer a heavy-hitting 60%/40% indica-dominant blend of hybrid effects and a delightful attitude adjustment. With THC levels of up to 28% and moderate levels of CBD, Girl Scout Cookies cannabis seeds provide full-body pain relief, medical-grade effects, and a euphoric, creative high.
The high you experience with GSC is classic hybrid: it sends you a blast of sativa euphoria and rounds that off with a tingly, full body indica stone. Expect time stretch and other space and perception head effects, too, even if you do experience couch lock and a serious case of the munchies—and you might.
You should also expect these effects to last, so don’t feel like you’ll be hitting and running off to get a long to do list done. GSC is an hours-long high filled with a certain amount of laughing and lost time, which you will enjoy every moment of.
GSC Medical Benefits
Remember how in the movie, “Heathers,” the evil leader Heather calls Veronica a “girl scout cookie” as if that’s a weak little thing that isn’t to be taken seriously? Yeah—it’s not like that with this strain.
Girl Scout Cookies cannabis is serious business. Don’t be a Heather.
Ask the budtenders in trusted dispensaries what the favorite strains are in your area. There is little no chance that GSC isn’t on there.
For reals, though, Girl Scout Cookies marijuana seeds are where mind-bending head highs meet up with full-body relaxation—not to mention some lovely euphoria. For medical marijuana patients, this strain is a major go-to for many issues, including appetite loss, nausea, and even severe pain.
The immediate effects of Girl Scout Cookies cannabis include sheer happiness and an uplifted feeling. Next comes the relaxation that seeps throughout the body. However, there won’t be any couchlock or that leaden eyelid feeling that just sends you off. Instead, expect more of a warm sensation that loosens up the muscles and spreads through the body.
Mentally, you won’t feel gorked or out of it. In fact, many growers keep GSC in stock and GSC seeds in the dirt precisely because so many patients and consumers love the social aspects of this strain. You’ll feel social, more creative, and although you will still enjoy some of that “high” feeling and laugh, you won’t feel out of control. Instead, users report confident, outgoing feelings.
While the GSC strain is not a remedy for insomnia per se, if stress, anxiety, or depression are what is keeping you awake, this might be the ideal choice. The strain is perfect for just unwinding at night, and producing a relaxed high that reminds you: you’ve got this. For many people, this helps them get to sleep, knowing they can face tomorrow with less anxiety.
Another great use for Girl Scout Cookies is for patients with any need for very light sedation. For example, if you’re battling anxiety issues overall, or undergoing chemotherapy that causes general discomfort, this strain can boost appetite and increase physical and mental comfort.
GSC Taste and Smell
With a light, earthy aroma, Girl Scout Cookies will give you a blast from your blast. Notes of mint, spice, and chocolate along with the suggestive name and sweet experience get you there, and that amazing euphoria definitely keeps you there. The entire experience is smooth, yet there’s a nice peppery, hoppy element there as well.
Especially in concentrate form, expect to taste more of the citrus notes of the GSC strain. You may also experience more spiciness or sweetness. This is a popular vape strain for good reason.
GSC Cannabinoid/Terpene Profile
Typical THC levels of GSC range from 18 to 28%, with 22% being about average. CBD levels are significant, between 1 and 2%, with notable levels of CBG as well as other minor cannabinoids such as CBC and CBN. Together these mitigate against the classic THC side effects like dry mouth and dry eyes, and help make GSC a knockout medical strain—without being an actual knockout.
GSC is rich in the terpene Caryophyllene, moderate in Limonene and Humulene, with smaller amounts of Myrcene.
The only terpene known to bind with the CB2 receptors, Caryophyllene is a proven antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. This powerful terpene boosts the immune system and can help relieve anxiety, pain, and stress.
Myrcene has analgesic (pain-relieving), antibiotic, sedative, and anti-inflammatory effects. It also has anti-cancer or antimutagenic qualities and is known for soothing, herbal benefits.
Limonene is famous for its energizing, uplifting effects, offering relief from anxiety and stress, and enhancing the mood. It is also an antibacterial and antifungal, and improves digestion.
Like many other terpenes, Humulene can soothe pain, and it may also help an overactive appetite.
GSC History and Genetics
We cannabis fans owe so much to California, and Girl Scout Cookies seeds are just more proof of that. Today this extreme strain is worldwide, but the Golden State birthed this hybrid cross of Durban Poison and OG Kush.
You’ve probably had some cookies strain, because everyone loves breeding Girl Scout Cookies seeds. There are multiple unique GSC phenotypes including Platinum GSC and Thin Mint GSC, and even relations such as Animal Cookies and Monster Cookies. Each shares some of the best qualities of the
Girl Scout Cookies strain.
If You Love GSC Marijuana, Try These Strains
In terms of effects, Girl Scout Cookies marijuana seeds are a happy high like Sour Diesel or Sour Kush, only more uplifting. GSC offers a similar relaxing or potentially sedating experience you might get from GG4 or Gelato, with even more head effects alongside that deep relaxation.
You also get that sweet relaxation without sedation similar to Candyland, but with more ability to focus. The Girl Scout Cookies strain produces a little less of a spacey high than Pineapple Express (too bad), although we love that we get more energy and tingly body effects with it.
Growing the GSC Strain
There is plenty of variety in how these plants look, but GSC often grows green calyxes, purple leaves, and bright orange pistils. In cooler climates the buds on these plants may look an even deeper purple and more crystalline—also very beautiful!
Although you might assume Girl Scout Cookies marijuana is a challenge to grow based on its high THC levels, this is a great plant for beginners. Indoor flowering time for Girl Scout Cookies cannabis seeds is 9 to 10 weeks and an easy growing cycle makes that go quickly. Feminized GSC seeds in particular are an easier grow for first timers, because there’s no need for the same level of vigilance removing the males.
There are feminized and autoflowering seeds on offer for those who lack confidence or time to manage the full process, and the seeds are highly resistant to infestations, mold, and pests. As always, stick to the germination instructions for the Girl Scout Cookies seeds. They have been developed by growers over the years to yield the best results.
On average, Girl Scout Cookies marijuana plants will grow up to 66 inches tall, and expand outward somewhat as well, although some plants boast a more typically indica short stature of under 36 inches. The strain is well-suited to both outdoor and indoor growing, but ensure you have sufficient space for these plants inside. The best climate for Girl Scout Cookies weed is one that resembles Mediterranean temperatures—warm days, ample sunshine, and a grow cycle of about 70 days.
Although yield always depends in part on growing conditions, both indoor and outdoor growers can expect a moderate yield of up to 21 ounces per plant/square meter. With these high THC levels, good quality GSC seeds really deliver.
