Beaver Cookies strain guide
2 min read · Updated · WeedDB editors
Beaver Cookies is a hybrid from Elev8 Seeds, a cross of GMO Cookies and Gary Payton. People know it for a loud, gassy smell with a garlic edge and, a bit surprisingly for those parents, an energetic and creative feel.
Where does Beaver Cookies come from?
Beaver Cookies was bred by Elev8 Seeds, and one strain database, another database and GrowDiaries all give the same cross: GMO Cookies and Gary Payton. That database traces GMO Cookies back to Chemdawg and Girl Scout Cookies, the same pairing usually given for GMO.
Sources disagree on its lean. Two strain databases call it a hybrid, while GrowDiaries calls it sativa-dominant. When it was released and how it got its name are not documented. It's sold as feminized seeds, with flowering listed at about 60 days.
What does Beaver Cookies smell and taste like?
Beaver Cookies smells pungent and gassy, with diesel up front and a garlicky, skunky side from its GMO parent. Some reviewers also notice a little lemon or sweetness underneath.
No source we found publishes terpene results for Beaver Cookies, so we can't say which terpenes lead. If your product lists them, that's the best guide.
Beaver Cookies effects: what people report
Reviews are still few, but people most often describe Beaver Cookies as energetic, creative and focused. Some also mention feeling euphoric, talkative or happy, and a few say it turned relaxed or made them hungry later on.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance. Dry mouth and dry eyes are the most common complaints.
How strong is Beaver Cookies?
One strain database lists Beaver Cookies at about 20% THC, and that's the only published figure we found. Seed listings simply call it potent. Expect very little CBD.
Start small and give it time, especially since there's so little data on it. Check the THC number on your label rather than relying on the strain name.
Buying Beaver Cookies in Canada
Beaver Cookies is not a common name, so you may have to look around. Don't confuse it with The Beavs, a different strain that's listed much higher for THC.
If you find it, it'll most likely be dried flower or pre-rolls. Check the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date on the label.
Beaver Cookies vs Gary Payton
Gary Payton is one parent of Beaver Cookies. Both smell gassy, but Gary Payton leans peppery and earthy, while Beaver Cookies adds garlic and skunk from its GMO side. Gary Payton is usually listed higher for THC and gets called relaxed and giggly, while Beaver Cookies gets called energetic and creative. If you want the better-known, stronger strain, start with Gary Payton. If savoury gas sounds good, try Beaver Cookies.
