Also known as: Midnight Snacks, Midnight Snackz
Overview
Midnight Snack is a popular indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained significant recognition in the cannabis community for its potent effects and distinctive flavor profile. The strain's most commonly cited lineage is a cross between Do-Si-Dos and Dark Helmet, originally bred by Maven Genetics, though variations exist from other breeders including Greenpoint Seeds (Blue Dream x Animal Cookies) and other cultivators. The strain emerged during the dessert-themed hybrid wave of the late 2010s and early 2020s, reflecting the broader trend toward confectionary-named cannabis varieties. Midnight Snack typically features dense, medium-to-large buds with colorful purple and green nugs displaying different shades of emerald and violet, contrasted with burnt orange hairs and a heavy coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The strain's name aptly reflects its late-night appeal and tendency to induce appetite stimulation, making it popular for evening consumption. With THC levels consistently testing in the higher range of 19-30%, Midnight Snack is considered ideal for experienced cannabis consumers seeking potent effects.

Growing Information
Midnight Snack is considered moderately easy to grow and offers good vigor and resilience. The strain typically flowers in 53-70 days depending on the phenotype, with most finishing around 8-9 weeks. Plants grow to medium-tall height (30-80 inches), featuring long, lanky branches with thick, dark-green leaves. Indoor yields range from 10-15 ounces with some phenotypes producing up to 4 ounces per plant. The strain forms medium to large-sized colas heavily coated in trichomes and is resistant to most environmental stressors. Growers should maintain proper humidity control during flowering (especially late flower) to prevent powdery mildew and bud rot. The strain prefers balanced feeding and benefits from adequate ventilation. Some phenotypes may display purple and blue hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during flowering.
