Forum Cut Cookies is an uplifting, Sativa-dominant (75/25) strain from Ethos Genetics. It shares a genetic heritage with the infamously popular Girl Scout Cookies, from which it gets its sweet, nutty, and skunky flavors. The strain’s direct parents are Durban Poison and Cherry Kush. While many strains are named as conglomerates of their parents, Forum Cut Cookies was named after the internet forum that first came up with it.

The strain grows in dense nugs that are big, dark green, and covered in amber hairs. The trichomes dust every inch of the plant in a light layer of shiny white crystals. In your hands, Forum Cut Cookies has a pleasant, earthy aroma, which turns to a sweet, nutty skunkiness when it’s burned, with hints of sweet spices. As the strain has terpenes in its lineage that suggest flavors of diesel fuel, Forum Cut Cookies has a strong diesel feel, along with hidden notes of sandalwood and fresh earth.

The dense flowers of the strain don’t grow particularly large. In cooler temperatures, Forum Cut Cookies can take on a beautiful array of colors as it slowly flowers for you over 9 to 10 weeks. It has far more branches than leaves and can handle pretty much any growing condition.

The effects of Forum Cut Cookies begin as a sense of uplifting, happy calm. The strain is great for feeling euphoric and introspective, for considering your life from “high” up in the calmest parts of your brain. With a THC level that maxes out at 28%, “introspection” may be an understatement. Be prepared to feel heavy in your body and mind. Some users report seeing lights on this strain, through clear thoughts that are completely attentive and focused. Despite the focus, don’t expect to get any work done on Forum Cut Cookies. This is a strain for vegging out, for feeling a thousand miles high, for hiding away in the pleasantest parts of your mind.

All these effects provide an intensely relieving mood for three hours or more. Those who live in constant stress, depression, or pain can use a dose of Forum Cut Cookies to replace bad feelings with focused, floating, lifting ones. The flavors of sweet spice, earth, and nuts recall its Girl Scout Cookies heritage. However, the high will make you recall pretty much nothing, just as fans of the strain have come to know and love.
