Beaver Cookies
Beaver Cookies
Overview
Beaver Cookies is a hybrid strain bred by Elev8 Seeds, and made from a genetic cross of GMO Cookies x Gary Payton. Beaver Cookies is a Sativa dominant hybrid between GMO Cookies and Gary Payton, resulting in a vigorous plant with a flowering period of about 10 weeks after the photoperiod change. Historical records indicate that breeders began experimenting with various crosses around 2018, with significant refinement and stability achieved by 2020. Reports from the industry note that similar innovative breeding projects have sometimes led to THC percentages in the 26-31% range, which gives us insight into the potential potency of Beaver Cookies. Many experts see this strain as a nod to the evolution of premium hybrid genetics in the modern cannabis market.
On the one hand the parental GMO Cookies, a well-known strain in the US thanks to its high THC level, a cross between Girl Scout Cookies and Chemdawg. It produces very resinous buds, particularly loaded with terpenes. On the other hand, Elev8 Seeds breeders have used Gary Payton, a variety named after the famous basketball player. This parental is highly appreciated by cannabis consumers, a carefully preserved clone that produces frosty buds with such potent terpenes as GMO Cookies. The "Beaver" label likely references Oregon, whose state animal and iconography pervade local branding across craft beverages and cannabis. This does not prove the strain was bred in Oregon, but it matches common naming practices within the market. In any case, the naming signals intent: Beaver Cookies aims to deliver a modern dessert profile with the polish of contemporary indoor breeding.

Growing Information
Beaver Cookies has a flowering time of 9-10 weeks, producing between 450 and 600 grams per square meter indoors and up to 750 grams per plant outdoors. Its flowering period is 9 to 11 weeks long, making it a quick-growing strain. Beaver Cookies is categorized as moderate in difficulty, making it accessible for growers with some experience. If you've grown grass before, you're ready for the show. Indoor growers are recommended to maintain temperatures between 68°F and 78°F, ensuring that the plants thrive in a controlled environment that mimics natural conditions. Many cultivators have cited that these temperature ranges are optimal for maximizing resin production and terpene expression without causing undue stress to the plants. Temps 68-79°F, humidity between 45–55% during flower. The GMO cross means you need to watch things, it really stretched! I had to steal my lights to the top of the tent with cable ties. The ideal outdoor environment includes a growing season that avoids early frosts, as Beaver Cookies typically requires a full 8-10 weeks of flowering time. Many outdoor cultivators have reported that natural sunlight, combined with strategic organic fertilization practices, can yield plants that surpass indoor counterparts in both size and resin density.
