If you’re not a sports fan, there’s a chance that the name of this strain sounds a bit odd to you. Also known simply as Gary Payton, Cookies Gary Payton was produced in collaboration with the former Seattle Supersonics point guard. After crossing The Y and Snowman, the teams at Cookies and Powerzzz Genetics turned her over to Veritas, a Colorado-based grower who now holds all licensing power.

Cookies Gary Payton may top out at a meer 25% THC, but users claim time and time again that she packs a huge punch. Nugs take on a classic look with a mint green color that’s accented by bright orange pistils and a thick coating of white, sparkling trichomes. If you enjoy sweet strains then this gal isn’t for you, as she dominates your senses with a mixture of spicy diesel and herbs. Many say that her odor lingers for quite a while, so make sure you’re enjoying her in a safe area before you light up.

A lot of the time people use phrases like “buckle up” when describing how to prepare for a particular type of high, but in the case of Cookies Gary Payton, you might actually want to do so — or at least plant your behind on the couch. While this strain isn’t typically sedative, sitting down may be a smart move due to the sheer strength of her effects. Users note that right away their mind is blasted into the outer realms of euphoria, creating a strong desire to socialize and a fit of giggles that simply won’t go away. For some, focus is intensified and could be used to your advantage when it comes to your to-do list.
