Keep reading to learn all there is to know about Animal Mints, its origins, genetics, grow traits, and more.
Strain History of Animal Mints
Animal Mints was created by Seed Junky Genetics, and quickly became one of the brand's most successful strains. While it's no longer listed on the Seed Junky website, Animal Mints is still widely available at dispensaries and cannabis stores, and some seed banks also offer their own versions of the strain with similar traits.
Seed Junky Genetics originated in Southern California, where it is still located. The brand's founder, Andrew Hart (JBeezy), is a highly respected figure in the genetics industry and, together with his team of growers and breeders, has created a long list of high-profile hybrids, including:
• Kush Mints
• Wedding Cake
• Ice Cream Cake
JBeezy founded Seed Junky Genetics in the 2000s. Ever since his early days as a grower, he has been focused on creating strains that simultaneously deliver great aromas and flavors, plenty of THC, and heavy harvests. While JBeezy's earliest grows took place in his garage in SoCal, Seed Junky is now renowned for its high-tech grow rooms and laboratories.
Genetic Lineage of Animal Mints
There is some debate regarding the exact genetics of Animal Mints. And with little information available from Seed Junky about this strain, it's difficult to ascertain where exactly it stems from. The leading theory is that Animal Mints is the culmination of two Cookies giants: Animal Cookies and SinMint Cookies. However, some sources suggest that it actually stems from Animal Cookies, GSC, and Blue Power. We'll explore all of these strains in more detail below.
Animal Cookies, sometimes called Animal Crackers, is a Cookies hybrid bred from GSC and Fire OG. It is believed to have a fairly even split of both indica and sativa genetics, though its heavy, sleepy stone would suggest otherwise. Known to preserve the classic earthy, sweet cookie aroma that the whole Cookies line is known for, Animal Cookies is a delicious and aromatic smoke loved by many who have tried it. As is to be expected from such a deeply relaxing strain, Animal Cookies is especially popular among medical cannabis patients needing potent relief.
SinMint Cookies was originally created by Sin City Seeds from GSC and Blue Power. It is also thought to be a fairly well-balanced hybrid and is known to produce a hard-hitting euphoria immediately after you inhale her vapor or smoke, combined with a strong body buzz. As her name suggests, SinMint Cookies smells super fresh and minty with upfront menthol notes layered on top of a nutty, earthy base.
GSC, formerly known as Girl Scout Cookies, is the almighty queen of the Cookies line. An indica-dominant cross of OG Kush and Durban Poison, GSC is known for its potent effects and strong aroma that combines a mouthwatering sweetness with hints of mint, earth, and spice—reminiscent of the actual cookies she is named after. Besides her bold aromas and flavors, GSC also produces an uplifting stone that has made her a favorite smoke of everyday tokers and even celebrities like Wiz Khalifa.
Blue Power is another Sin City Seeds flagship strain. An indica-dominant hybrid, Blue Power combines genes from Sour Dubble, Master Kush, The White, and Blue Moonshine. It boasts a unique fusion of sweet lemon and berry notes with subtle hints of earth. Blue Power is also known for producing a strong, full-body stone that's perfect for quiet nights alone, with friends, or a special someone. There is another popular version of Blue Power available from Vision Seeds that is bred from Blueberry, White Widow, and Skunk #1, and is known to be more uplifting and less sedating.
Physical Characteristics of Animal Mints
Based on pictures from growers, the original Animal Mints by Seed Junky is a compact strain with tightly spaced nodes and large leaves. Growers report that the strain grows vigorously and stretches considerably during its first weeks of flowering.
Animal Mints' foliage is bright green and gradually darkens as the strain reaches maturity. Its buds boast a tight structure and a good leaf-to-flower ratio, making for easy pruning. Animal Mints flowers tend to be bright green, though they take on beautiful purple-black hints as they ripen. Animal Mints buds also seem to be prone to foxtailing, which can lend them odd and eye-catching shapes.
Properties and Effects of Animal Mints
Animal Mints is a very potent strain, producing anywhere between 15–30% THC, averaging around 24% according to dispensary and user reports. It also boasts an intense aroma dominated by myrcene, caryophyllene, and pinene. Animal Mints' aroma is, you guessed it, notably minty with an underlying earthy cookie smell and a touch of fresh pine. A trained nose might also pick up on other, more subtle aromas reminiscent of apples and dank diesel.
Thanks to its high resin production and rich concentration of both cannabinoids and terpenes, Animal Mints can produce very potent effects. While everyone's experience with weed is different, users generally find this strain to be both euphoric and very relaxing. One or two hits is usually all it takes for the strain's strong cerebral euphoria to kick in, leaving users in a happy, chatty daze. Soon after, this mental euphoria runs down into the body, inducing deep relaxation and, in moderate doses, sleep. Given its strength and heavy stone, Animal Mints is usually best used at night or whenever you can relax guilt-free.
Uses of Animal Mints
Recreational users treasure Animal Mints for its potency and deeply relaxing stone. According to user reports, Animal Mints is best enjoyed:
• When relaxing at home
• While decompressing after a long day
• After exercise
• On weekends (especially lazy days or nights in)
• While enjoying takeout or another meal
Medical cannabis patients are just as fond of Animal Mints as rec users. With its strong physical effects and euphoric cerebral influence, medical marijuana patients report using this strain for issues ranging from sleep problems to mood-related conditions and more.
Animal Mints is very potent, so we advise caution when dosing the strain. If you're new to cannabis or have a low tolerance for THC, remember that this strain can cause side effects such as paranoia, anxiety, lethargy, and headaches.
Cultivation and Production of Animal Mints
There isn't much information available about what it’s like to grow Animal Mints. Pictures and reports from growers suggest that this strain is well-suited to both indoor and outdoor setups, though indoor growers should be prepared for the strain's stretch. Thanks to its strong genetics, Animal Mints seems to respond well to training techniques such as LST and topping, which can help to control the plant's height. Some growers also choose to use heavy defoliation and main-lining to maximize Animal Mints' bud production. However, the strain can also be grown with less input and training.
Note that the original Animal Mints strain by Seed Junky is extremely rare, and seeds/clones of this strain are hard to come by. However, there are other versions of this strain sold through other seed banks, including Blimburn Seeds. While we cannot confirm their origins or similarity to the original Seed Junky Animal Mints, these alternative versions may be of interest to the curious and daring home grower.
