Uses
Monster Cookies offer a multitude of medicinal benefits. Due to its terpene and cannabinoid profile, high in anti-inflammatory CBG (1%), caryophyllene, and humulene, it can be an effective pain remedy – from headaches to menstrual cramps and arthritis.
It can also be helpful across the mental sphere – be it depression, stress or anxiety. High in uplifting limonene, Monster Cookies replaces negativity with positive thoughts, bringing temporary relief to sufferers of mental health conditions.
While it won’t knock you out instantly, the slow-burning sedative quality can help you descend into sleep naturally, making it a potential remedy for insomnia.
Side effects
The usual side effects of Monster Cookies consumption mainly consist of dry eyes and mouth sensations. In case of overconsumption, paranoia and dizziness can also occur. Despite its lower THC count, the strain is potent and should not be underestimated. Practise responsible consumption as always, especially if you are a beginner or tend to be prone to anxiety and panic. Start with a single puff, gradually increasing the dosage as necessary.
Taste & Smell
Monster Cookies are a treat to the senses- beginning with their sticky, shimmering, dense forest-green buds. These often spot beautiful blue and purple hues, taken over from the Granddaddy Purple parent.
But the looks aren’t the only thing GDP influences – so is the marvellous fragrance, boasting an intense, sweet grape and berry base with gassy and earthy undertones. Upon breaking the buds, you will also notice a hint of spice.
While equally complex, the taste is more influenced by Girl Scout Cookies. Smooth, sweet vanilla and berry notes combine with a dank exhale accentuated by a bit of cherries for an exceptional, indulgent experience.

Origins
Monster Cookies is a testament to masterful breeding, coming from two iconic, multi-award winners: the beloved GSC and the tasty, relaxing Granddaddy Purple. With such an esteemed lineage, Monster Cookies was bound to be a success right from the start. The author of this intriguing creation still remains a mystery, and this enigma only adds charm to this rare variety.
Growing conditions
Unfortunately, the authentic seeds of Monster Cookies have not been released on sale, so the only chance to grow your own is to obtain a clipping for a clone from an existing plant. If you overcome that hurdle, expect a short, bushy plant, usually reaching around 1 metre. Due to this stature, it will need regular topping.
Monster Cookies can be grown equally well both indoors and outdoors in a sunny, moderately warm climate with some humidity. Flowering takes 8-9 weeks, with a relatively modest harvest of around 300-350 grams per square metre indoors and about 350 grams per plant outdoors.
