EarthyAnimal Cookies is a feast to all the senses, starting with a beautiful appearance. The densely packed, tight buds and leaves boast a deep colour palette with yellow, green and purple hues, adorned with vibrant orange pistils and a generous cover of cloudy trichomes.

The sweet, creamy vanilla is exactly what you taste as you smoke the bud up – with a hint of citrus and earthy undertones yet again, making for a cookie-like treat.
Origins
The lineage of Animal Cookies is as rich and profound as its flavour profile. The Canadian BC Bud Depot bred this beautiful hybrid from two remarkable parents: a mighty Fire OG and the legendary, multi-award-winning Girl Scout Cookies. The combination of their unique characteristics led to a strain providing an experience that transcends the ordinary and will satisfy even the most picky connoisseurs.
Growing conditions
Growing Animal Cookies is challenging and should best be left to experienced cultivators.
Due to the plant’s high-maintenance nature, it thrives best in controlled indoor conditions, where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Proper ventilation in the growing area is essential for two reasons: Animal Cookies can be sensitive to mould and mildew, and they also emit a pungent aroma during the whole vegetative stage. Moreover, this hybrid will require regular trimming of the broad leaves on the top to ensure that the lower-laying buds can get optimal sunshine and airflow.
The plant typically takes 9-10 weeks to flower, yielding around 300 grams per square metre indoors and 350-370 grams per outdoor plant.
