GMO, also known as Garlic Cookies, first arrived from the breeders at Mamiko Seeds. Known for producing premium genetics with complex flavor profiles, the brand has produced some of the industry’s most cutting-edge strains.

The Mamiko breeders created GMO by crossing Chemdawg with Girl Scout Cookies. Both of these parent strains have achieved legendary status. Firstly, Chemdawg has been responsible for a number of powerhouse strains like Diesel and OG Kush. The same heavy-hitting effects that Chemdawg has passed down to these classic strains are reflected in GMO. Likewise, Girl Scout Cookies passes down its potential euphoric effects as well as its sweet flavor profile.

The first inhale of the GMO strain will bring on a sweet, earthy flavor that complements its aroma. After the flavor hits, users may notice the indica characteristics start to take effect. GMO offers a heavy-hitting high that may result in deep relaxation with euphoric cerebral effects. These effects are part of why GMO is so popular. One Leafly user put it perfectly when he stated, “I am certain that when cannabis becomes mainstream nationwide, it will be strains like this that consumers will rely on for relaxation, sleep, & to calm the mind.”

GMO may be a great strain for getting a good night’s sleep due to its sedative properties towards the come-down. The overall effects of the strain make it a great choice for users suffering from insomnia, anxiety, mood swings, depression, or chronic pain. Additionally, the cultivar may be well-suited for athletes when their body needs recovery and rest.
