Platinum Girl Scout Cookies

Leafly covers the strain behind Platinum Girl Scout Cookies on a page named Platinum Cookies. Popular hybrid, next evolution of the strain behind its name: that is how Leafly’s description frames it. Our strain guide traces it to OG Kush and Durban Poison, and this is flower named for it.

OG Kush, Durban Poison and two named offspring

Leafly’s genetics tree lists OG Kush and Durban Poison as parents, with Candyland and Brownie Scout as children, and the description calls the strain a three-way mix. Steven De Guzman’s tip, in the guide linked above, is about what comes after: if the strain becomes a favourite, the two offspring Leafly names are where to look next.

Sage green leaves under crystal trichomes

Leafly describes the buds as thickly coated in crystal trichomes over sage green leaves. One Leafly reviewer found very dense buds covered in crystals.

Sweet berry, candy and fruity spice

Leafly describes the aroma and flavour as sweet berry and candy notes followed by a fruity spiciness. The flavour tags there are sweet, flowery and earthy. One reviewer describes a smell like a fruity sugar cookie and a candy taste with lavender undertones. Our guide adds earth and spice beneath the sweet berry and candy.

Pepper-note caryophyllene, then limonene and myrcene

Terpene data on Leafly puts caryophyllene, with its pepper note, first, with limonene (see our limonene explainer) and myrcene behind it. THC is about 17% and CBD 0% on Leafly’s page, where potency is rated above the average strain.

Leafly reviewers tag relaxed, euphoric and happy most, and creative, focused, energetic, uplifted, giggly and talkative also appear. Our guide names the same top three. The strain scores 4.5 across 1,392 ratings.

Four phenotypes in Leafly’s grow notes

Leafly’s grow information asks for a dry outdoor climate and says the strain does best grown large instead of restricted to containers. Leafly reports four phenotypes: three usually with sativa influence and one more indica-like.
