According to rumors, Monster Cookies is a hybrid of GDP, also known as Grand Daddy Purple, and GSC, or Girl Scout Cookies. Monster Cookies, with its aroma and flavor frequently compared to a cross between sweet grapes and earthy skunk, is sought after for its allegedly deeply calming effects. The indica-leaning strain is said to produce compact, medium-sized buds that are covered in sticky white trichomes over the course of a 56–63 day flowering period. It is reported to grow short and stocky with plenty of vegetation. According to reports, Monster Cookies can be grown either indoors or outdoors. The buds’ forest-green color may take on purple or dark blue undertones if the plant is exposed to colder temperatures just before the flowering cycle. It’s crucial to keep in mind that Monster Cookies is a clone-only plant, making it challenging for most growers to locate a genuine cut. The cannabis testing facility Analytical 360 found that one Monster Cookies sample had a high concentration of the terpenes humulene, caryophyllene, and alpha-pinene. Other Monster Cookies cultivars are said to have THC levels that can go as high as 21%, whereas this particular sample only showed THC levels just above 12%.

Although some claim that the indica-dominant strain has OG Kush genetics, the origins of Frankenstein are unconfirmed. It is believed to have come from the Pacific Northwest. Skunk, pine, and citrus have been described as Frankenstein’s most prominent aromas. Furthermore, it is said to have a lemon, tropical fruit, and earth flavor. Unknown in its origins, Frankenstein is an indica-dominant strain. Frankenstein’s indica ancestry probably results in short, bushy plants. The only thing that is known about growing Frankenstein is that it thrives both inside and outside while producing meager yields. Frankenstein seeds are offered.

Sensi Star and Sour Diesel are the parents of the Death Star, an Indica-dominant hybrid. The strain was initially developed in Ohio by “Team Death-Star” in the early 2000s, and it has become well-known for its Sour Diesel flavor and compact growth pattern. After switching to a 12/12 light cycle, the strain produces short, stout plants with dense buds that take about 65 days to mature. It does well when grown hydroponically and in the Sea of Green (SOG) environment. Death Star, a strain that is only available as clones, took second place and the People’s Choice Award at the 2014 Denver High Times Cannabis Cup.

Kush Mints is a hybrid created by Seed Junky Genetics in Southern California using Bubba Kush pollen and the clone-only Animal Mints strain. A Kush Mints phenotype has been bred by the Seed Junky experts with a number of other hybrids, such as Wedding Cake and Animal Cookies. The name of this well-balanced hybrid strain comes from the claim that it has a potent mint flavor. Users claim that it also induces a state of calmness, relaxation, and occasionally sleep. There isn’t much information available about this strain, but Kush Mints is said to be a clone-only variety that can be grown indoors or outdoors and may yield very dense, crystal trichome-covered buds.

The Lilac Diesel strain was developed by Ethos Genetics in its native Colorado. It consists of a cross between Silver Lemon Haze and Forbidden Fruit, Citral Glue, and Chem D I95, as well as NYC Diesel and Cherry Pie. The breeder keeps improving the line, so Lilac Diesel BX2, BX3, etc., may be seen. Fruits, berries, and mint are the most frequently mentioned aromas of the original Lilac Diesel strain. It is claimed to have a taste of spices, berries, and fuel. Although more recent backcrosses are easily accessible as seeds, Lilac Diesel is not available as seeds or clones.

By fusing the high-CBD Respect with the Spanish-derived Dance Hall, which has an equal CBD to THC ratio, Royal Queen Seeds produced Royal Highness. Royal Highness is less psychoactive than other cannabis cultivars because it contains higher CBD concentrations. It emits the flavors and aromas of haze blended with skunk and sweet berries. Most amateur gardeners can successfully manage Royal Highness’ short, squat growth. When grown indoors, the strain typically flowers in eight to nine weeks, and when grown outdoors, in early October. Royal Highness can thrive in a variety of environments, but it’s important to protect them from abrupt changes in temperature or weather.

Lemon Meringue was produced by Exotic Genetix by mating a Lemon Skunk female and a Cookies & Cream male. Like its name implies, the resulting sativa-dominant strain is said to have a sweet, lemon dessert-like flavor profile. The breeder has retired the strain, and it is not easily accessible in seed or clone form, claims the online cannabis seed retailer Seeds Here Now. In an eight- to nine-week flowering period, Lemon Meringue is said to grow tall and lanky while producing large yields of stacked, towering colas.

Blue Cheese was first grown by the staff at Big Buddha Seeds. The breeders decided to breed a female with another Blueberry x Big Buddha Cheese hybrid male after perfecting the phenotype of the UK-born Cheese. As a result, the heritage of blue cheese rather than its flavor or aroma is what gave it its name. Customers describe blue cheese as a fruity flower that makes them feel happy but not euphoric. Breeders claim that Blue Cheese blooms indoors in eight to ten weeks and outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere near the end of October. If kept in slightly cooler environments, blue cheese has a strong aroma and is resistant to mold and mildew.

In 2013, this strain finished third overall for best sativa at the High Times Cannabis Cup. Red Congolese has a moderate THC content (of 18% to 20% on average), which can cause tingling and euphoric effects. Red Congolese originated in California from a mixture of Mexican and Afghan ancestry, despite the name suggesting African origins. Perhaps it is because of these international roots that Red Congolese has a distinct earthy flavor. SnowHigh Seeds occasionally confuses Red Congolese with Congolese Red, but the two strains are different. Red Congolese is a tall variety that can grow as tall as 6 feet. One of the simpler strains to grow, it thrives both indoors and outdoors. Compared to other strains, flowering takes a little longer, taking place at 10 to 11 weeks as opposed to the more typical 8 or 9 weeks.

Tangie, a strain with strong, unmistakable citrus and tangerine notes that was influenced by the well-known strain Tangerine Dream from the 1990s, has a distinctive aroma. Tangie is a cannabis strain developed by DNA Genetics in Amsterdam. It comes in both regular and feminized seed forms. Tangie is a cross between Crockett’s Farm Tangerine Dream and DNA Genetics’ select male Skunk. California Orange, also known as Cali-O, and Skunk #1 were the parents of the original Tangerine Dream. Tangie served as the model for the development of several citrus-flavored hybrids, such as Sour Tangie (East Coast Sour Diesel x Tangie), Tangie OG (Tangie x OG Kush), and Agent Tangie (Tangie x Agent Orange). Tangie takes between 63 and 70 days to reach full flowering, producing large yields of dense, sticky flowers with vibrant green leaves and noticeable orange stigma hairs. It grows tall until roughly the fifth week of flowering and does best outside. In the Northern Hemisphere, the growing season lasts from late September to early October, while in the Southern Hemisphere, it lasts from March to early April. Tangie won prizes in ten different strain competitions during its first year on the market and is well known for its potent, sweet-and-sour citrus flavor and strong aroma.
