Cheese Cookies
Also known as: Cheese Cookie, Cookie Cheese
Overview
Cheese Cookies is a balanced indica-dominant hybrid strain that represents a modern fusion of cannabis classics. Created by crossing UK Cheese with Girl Scout Cookies, this strain combines the funky, savory characteristics of 1990s European cannabis with contemporary American dessert genetics. The strain exhibits a 60% indica / 40% sativa genetic profile, delivering a well-rounded experience that appeals to both recreational and medicinal users. First developed as a clone-only curiosity in Amsterdam's Red Light District in the early 2010s, Cheese Cookies gained popularity in underground grow circles before becoming widely available in seed form. The strain showcases dense, resinous buds covered in crystalline trichomes with muted green colors, orange hairs, and occasional purple hues in cooler climates. Its distinctive appearance reflects the high resin production inherited from both parent strains, making it an excellent choice for extraction purposes.

Growing Information
Cheese Cookies is moderately easy to grow and suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. The strain has a flowering time of 8-10 weeks and produces medium-height, bushy plants with good lateral branching that responds well to training techniques like LST and SCROG. Indoor yields typically range from 450-500g/m² (16-18 oz/m²), while outdoor plants can produce 650-700g per plant (20-24 oz). The strain requires odor control due to its strong, distinctive aroma and thrives in temperatures between 70-80°F (21-27°C) with humidity levels of 50-60% during vegetation, reducing to 40-50% during flowering. Plants develop dense, resinous buds with high trichome production, making them ideal for hash and extract production.
