Overview
Developed in California's Bay Area by a collective known as ‘Cookie Fam,’ GSC is a 60% indica hybrid strain, a combination of the legends Durban Poison and OG Kush. Capable of reaching stratospheric THC levels beyond 28%, GSC typically measures in the region of 20-24% with CBD and CBN levels usually well below 1%.
Strain Effects
The hybrid nature of GSC provides consumers with highs that mix the best of both worlds, a cerebral rush and spiritual boost from the sativa and an intense relaxation and body hit from the indica. These qualities combine to form a truly monumental experience, often leaving those lucky enough to enjoy it in a state of complete nirvana. Due to the high THC levels GSC is suitable for relieving many physical ailments though is best indulged in later in the day as it can also easily overwhelm and leave you melting into the sofa.
Growing info
Girl Scout Cookies seeds are suitable for both indoor and outdoor grows. While GSC isn't the easiest strain to grow, it is far from difficult with good resistances to mould and pests as well as a reasonably compact height of 100-180cm. Additionally GSC doesn’t require much in the way of nutrients in order to provide fine yields of 400-500g/m2, ready for harvesting after a flowering time of 8-10 weeks.
Appearance and Aroma
The bright green buds of GSC are often accompanied by patches of purple and come wrapped in deep purple leaves and electric orange hairs. Breaking open one of these beautiful buds releases a stunning sugary smell that perfectly complements the smooth and mellow baseline earthen aroma. Shots of cinnamon soon become apparent, only intensifying during when the buds are lit, giving a distinctive aroma not unlike that of fresh baked cookies.
MSNL Editors Verdict
The prize winning lineage of Girl Scout Cookies has produced a winner in its own right, one that offers heady levels of THC, the sweetest combination of mental and physical effects all drawn together with an aroma and flavour that will leave anyone salivating. Girl scout cookies is a new staple and something that no connoisseur should be without.
THC CONTENT | +22% | |
FLOWERING TIME | 8-10 WEEKS | |
TYPE / OUTDOOR | INDOOR/OUTDOOR | |
OUTDOOR HARVEST | LATE SEPT | |
PLANT HEIGHT | MEDIUM 100cm-180cm | |
YIELD | 400-500 g/m2 |
The flavour of Girl Scout Cookies is both unbelievable and unforgettable. A back line of skunk and earthiness is joined by a bold combination of spices like cinnamon and nutmeg which when combined with the prominent syrupy sweetness gives a taste that is eerily close to fresh cookies and will certainly make this one of your new baked goods of choice.

"Wish it was taller"
Review by Heidi
Well, it certainly has the official seal of Sam the cat! The little guys usually trim the bottom a bit, but at the rate they're chowing down, what I'm growing looks more like a really short tree. They are producing some really nice looking buds on the top and the parts Sam can't reach. I can only hope there will be some left for me!

"Small nuggets, Big Indica stone without the 'muppetness' of some Indicas"
Review by Staf
Ran GSC over 12 weeks DWC under 600HPS. 5 week grow / 7 week flower. Harvested .75kg of manicured bud. The nugs are distinctively small & hard with above average Resin. Tested @ 23% THC. Lovely Indica stone & quite tasty.

"Easy Grow, Great Yields 10/10"
Review by Terps
Recently harvested 1 GSC plant and it has been one of the easiest grows I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing! She handled multiple toppings easily, as well as LST. Buds were so heavy in flower that she started to spread herself out without having to LST anymore, leading to major development of lower buds as well as massive top colas. I'm excited to try her out again in another indoor grow season.
Peaked at around 3 feet from the base of a 5 gallon soil pot (and about 3 feet wide). Grown in FFOF with added dry amendments from happy frog(Posted on 11/12/2020)

"Huge Yields and Frightening Potency!"
Review by Conor
I recently harvested two of these monsters and the yield was unbelievable. The buds were large and very sticky coating my fingertips and clogging my trimming scissors in no time at all. I don't currently have a working scale but the yield of buds from each plant filled two gallon jars leaving me with four gallons in total. From past experience I'm guestimating roughly 20 OZ or higher from the two plants. I grew these in 20 gallon fabric pots and supplemented them regularly with compost tea when I put them into flower. Smaller pots will no doubt result in smaller yields. Once cured the aroma is fantastic and the high is very hard hitting. To be honest this strain is much too strong for me! Fortunately I have friends who will make certain it doesn't go to waste. This strain is very easy to grow indoors but it will need to be topped since all of mine topped six feet (183 cm) and got into my lights. GSC does appear to be susceptible to rust so take care to keep the humidity down and avoid crowding. I highly recommend this to anyone seeking a hard hitting, high yielding, easy to grow strain!

"Thick dense nugs!"
Review by GtGrower
Dense solid nugs! Very pleased with how they’re coming along. Not the strongest smelling but definitely sweet pine in there. I have a gg and gelato right next to her and gsc blows them out the water relative to the bud size. Cant wait to smoke her;)

"Tastey"
Review by vlad
First order from MSNL. Two weeks to the midwest. Discreetly shipped and no funny business with me credit card. Also nearly 100% germination. Have ordered since and will again. Grew two very similar plants. Very easy to deal with would be perfect for a beginner. Good yielders and beautiful to behold. It says 8-9 weeks but let em go 10, they pack it on the last two weeks. Although sweet and tastey there was no 'cookie' nothing to mine, much more floral in nature. A good after work stone but could use a little more kick in my opinion, but I smoke ALOT. Overall not bad at all and I still got 8 beans left! Cheers.

"Killer shit, update from 6 wks to go."
Review by Ed the head
My best ever, I let them flower for almost 10 weeks, spindly stems and big nugget everywhere. I let 3 of the plants get to tall. So the rest where out of the zone. I end up with 18 oz. The big 3 turned out 12 oz. Big hard nuggets all covered with resin, I've got the best shit around here, in Nov. even the outdoor.
The 3 AK-47 clones only put out 2.5 oz. good but it aint GSC.
I'm still working out my room, my first winter grow in basement. got 10 master Kush cracked open now, be putting in buckets in couple days. I"m loving the 1000 watt on the mover. I could really tell the difference on how hard the nuggets got. Almost forgot the butter, Ive made two batches of butter, and brownies. Got enough trimmings to do 2 more batches of butter. Good shit.(Posted on 17/11/2019)

"6 weeks to go"
Review by Ed the Head
I just switched from 4x4 tent to a room. I started 10 seeds only 7 started. I got 3 clones, AK47 from a buddy to fill my 10 buckets. Ive now got 3 big GSC and 3 smaller ones and a runt plus the clones. I topped all but the runt. I'm using 1000W HID on a mover with 6 ft travel. DWCR with a chiller and dyno gro for food. I'm feed them heavy, the clones let me when to stop. I've had to super crop 5 branches of the biggest girl, light is max height. With out the mover they would be burnt. i'm glad i turn the light back at less than a foot tall at 5 weeks, over 250% stretch on the big ones. They did take a long time to find the water in the buckets. They look great. I'll update later on what I get, but its looking good. Before I've had 100% germination, thats why the 4 star.

"Girl scout"
Review by Shane
This is a regular each grow for me GSC
For personal smoke. It’s taken a few crops to get it right but when u do it’s up there with the prettiest girls around. Love the taste from a bong. This strain is a strong head and body stone. Indoors it takes ppm a lot more than others. But growing other strains in same set up can make leaf burn with ppm to high.
Yield is high when you get it right . Being a smoker of 25 plus years u do feel it after regular smoking of this. This is not a bad thing if u love your smoke. It’s always the one I know that never lets u down.
Keep it simple

"very nice for indica"
Review by Scouter Touter
there is a reason that this is one of the most popular strains. I love the flavor I love the smell, very Berry with the aroma. the high is a very dream like, relaxed and happy high, a perfect high for me. I know that a girl I was with got really bad head aches and seemed to be more paranoid and on edge more so than usual with a indica heavy hybrid

"Oh Boy or should I say Girl"
Review by Chris Style
This is a must have strain. I have been getting Girl Scout Cookie from MSNL since they got it and I will tell you that this has to be one of the strongest strains that I have ever had. The bud are so dense and heavy, you will be amazed. This strain will have a strong smell in veg, just letting you know how powerful she is.

"This is the Strain to start with, especially if your new!!"
Review by Scott
I have bought a lot of different strains from MSNL, and I must say, GSC seems to have a lot of tolerance for mistakes. I'm new to growing cannabis, and after making a lot of expensive mistakes (and uncontrollable disasters) My GSC plants stayed strong while my others had long died. PH, Heat, all the things most plants are sensitive to, GSC seems to overcome with ease! Not only that, it grows extremely fast! Whoever designed this strain knew what they were doing. I'm keeping this plant in vegetative state as long as possible, which most likely will be another 3 weeks because I'm running out of room extremely fast. I can only hope they make a purple strain of this plant. Its Amazing and so simple to care for! Had I known the most strongest THC plant would be this easy to care for, I would have invested in a lot more seeds, and am actually ordering a lot more! I would have posted a picture of my mini jungle if I could =)

"AWESOME"
Review by jon
All 10 seeds cracked and grew a .5 inch tap root within 24 hours. I grew in veg for 7 weeks, about 8 inches tall. I flipped, starting with a 32 hour night. Now at 8 weeks in bloom they are about 3.5 feet tall (plant only, not including the pot). Very happy with the yield and the buds look AWESOME. Can't wait to harvest in a few days!!

"Unreal....."
Review by Robert D
I haven't harvested yet, but I have to say that if "medium" height is almost 10 feet tall then I'd hate to grow anything "tall"!!! :D It's just the start of the 8th week of flower, and they're not *quite* ready yet. Can't wait, though!!!

Review by Mark
Received seeds into Melbourne, Aus in 12 days. No problems with customs with their discrete shipping thanks everyone. :-)
Seeds cracked their shell within 12 hours of soaking in water. After a day in paper towel they already had a tail of an inch. 5 days and the secondary leaves are already out and looking strong. Great genetics, thanks again.
