Pizookies

Pizookies is an indica/sativa variety from Exotic Genetix and can be cultivated indoors (where the plants will need a flowering time of ±55 days). Exotic Genetix' Pizookies is a THC dominant variety and is/was never available as feminized seeds.

Exotic Genetix' Pizookies Description

Pizookies is a relatively rare and unknown cannabis variety created by Exotic Genetix. This regular strain gives rise to male and female plants, and maintains a compact structure throughout the growing cycle. Discover everything worth knowing about Pizookies below.

Strain History of Pizookies

Pizookies has a relatively simple backstory, originating from a breeding project carried out by Exotic Genetix. This seed bank came from humble beginnings in the state of Washington, where the founder developed his green fingers as a volunteer in a hydroponics store, helping medical growers troubleshoot for pests and diseases. Soon enough, he found himself entering the world of breeding, with a focus on disease-resistant genetics. Now, Exotic Genetix has a comprehensive and award-winning strain library, and Pizookies ranks as a particularly tasty variety. This strain hasn’t won any prestigious awards yet, but it has made quite a big impact on its small but loyal growership.

Genetic Lineage of Pizookies

Pizookies is an indica-dominant hybrid with a fairly balanced genetic profile. Its pretty green-purple buds and relaxing high are the result of crossing parent strains Starfighter and Mint Chocolate Chip. Find out more about these predecessor varieties below.

• Starfighter: Alien Genetics created this hybrid by crossing parent strains Alien Tahoe OG and Lemon Alien Dawg. Starfighter’s THC content of 18% triggers a primarily calming high that relaxes the body while clearing the mind. Her compact buds also possess high levels of limonene, a citrusy terpene associated with stress-busting properties. The terpenes caryophyllene and myrcene also influence the high by pulling it in a stoning direction. Hitting a blunt, vape, or bong packed with these flowers unleashes a complex flavor profile defined by notes of sweetness and spice. Alien Genetics eventually discontinued this strain, but the crew over at Exotic Genetix managed to keep this cultivar alive by sustaining several unique phenotypes.

• Mint Chocolate Chip: This strain also stems from the research and development rooms of Exotic Genetix. Breeders created her by crossing Green Ribbon BX with Mystery Cookies. Mint Chocolate Chip emerged with a perfectly balanced genetic profile of 50% sativa genetics and 50% indica. Her THC levels typically range from 17–23%, while her terpene profile consistently delivers tastes of mint and vanilla. Expect a tingly and happy high from these flowers—an effect that will get you feeling creative and motivated.

Physical Characteristics of Pizookies

Pizookies possesses a rather unique look that makes her stand out against many contemporary strains. Both her cola structure and color make her attractive to growers with a fondness for odd-looking plants. Pizookies plants exhibit a quintessentially indica morphology, featuring short internodes, thick leaflets, and a compact and bushy stature. This compact shape makes her suitable for small growing spaces, and certainly makes her less eye-catching when growing weed outdoors. Keep plants in a small container and top them, and they’ll reach 60–100cm. Use bigger pots and leave them untrained, and plants will peak around 150cm.

You’ll notice different colors show up across the growing cycle when cultivating Pizookies. She starts out dark green during the vegetative phase and stays that way during early flowering. However, things take a purple turn during the latter part of the flowering phase. Her buds and sugar leaves turn a deep violet hue, with spatters of green throughout. Pizookies produces small colas that are extremely tapered for their size; they almost look like inverted pyramids. In addition, Pizookies features above-average trichome density. Her buds sparkle during late flowering, and her trichomes pop against the purple-green background.

Properties and Effects of Pizookies

Pizookies serves up a mixed bag of psychoactive effects. Initially, her moderate THC content catalyzes a motivating, cognitive high. After a few puffs, many users report feeling the urge to get up and chase after their goals. However, this effect doesn’t last long. Eventually, the high takes a stoning turn as users feel themselves touch back down to earth. The latter stages of the psychoactive experience are defined by bouts of euphoria and deep relaxation. Her complex terpene profile also adds to the experience. Not only does it steer the subjective effects of the strain, but it offers moreish flavors of fruit, sweetness, and earthiness.

Uses of Pizookies

Overall, Pizookies’ high has several key features that make the strain attractive to many. For recreational users, moderate levels of THC and a heady high help to spark creativity without making users feel lethargic and lazy. Enjoy small but frequent doses to prevent the stoning element of the experience from creeping in too soon. Based on her phytochemical content, Pizookies serves as a good wake-and-bake strain. Smoked alongside a cup of coffee, these buds help to increase focus when it comes to menial tasks.

For medical marijuana users, Pizookies can help to elevate the mood and boost motivation. Her THC content helps to temporarily boost dopamine levels, and high levels of the terpene limonene lend an energetic note that may take the edge off of persistent mood-related symptoms.

Given its moderate THC content, the side effects of Pizookies are generally mild, but may include dry mouth and eyes, dizziness, and paranoia.

Cultivation and Production of Pizookies

Pizookies is a regular strain, meaning there’s a 50/50 chance that plants will emerge as male or female. While problematic for some growers, this trait comes in handy for others. If you’re looking to produce nothing but female buds, you’ll need to carefully identify the sex of the plants and remove males from the growing space as early as possible. On the flip side, the pollen-producing male plants can be used in personal breeding projects.

In the grow room and garden, Pizookies reaches a height of 60–150cm depending on available root space. She produces a medium yield following a flowering phase of 50–60 days indoors, with a mid-October harvest outdoors.

Pizookies — Bringing Cookies to New Heights

Pizookies remains a relatively under-looked strain. However, as the product of a celebrated United States seed bank, the cultivar has amassed somewhat of a cult following. Users that have tried her appreciate her fruity flavors, balanced high, and convenient size and structure.
