Accord by Mamiko Seeds
Chem × Cookies
Accord is an indica-dominant hybrid developed by Mamiko Seeds, a Spanish breeder recognized for combining Chem and Cookies genetics. This cultivar is designed for connoisseurs, offering a rich aromatic profile and notable resin production, making it suitable for extract applications.
Appearance
Accord plants typically reach a compact to medium height indoors, with moderate branching. The strain emphasizes calyx development over leaf growth during flowering, resulting in conical colas with a high calyx-to-leaf ratio. Trichomes abundantly cover the bracts, giving the flowers a frosted appearance. Under cooler temperatures late in bloom, some phenotypes may display purple hues in the sugar leaves.
The mature flowers are dense and firm, with minimal stem gap. Pistils mature from cream to copper as the resin heads develop. Well-cultivated Accord often exhibits visible resin on the sugar leaves, indicative of its genetic focus on extractability.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Accord is characterized by a strong initial scent of hydrocarbons, often described as gasoline, mingled with peppery spice and subtle savory undertones. Upon grinding, the profile sweetens, revealing notes of browned butter and cookie dough, sometimes with hints of cocoa or toasted sugar. This complex bouquet is a hallmark of its Chem-cookie heritage.
On the palate, Accord delivers a bright, fuel-tinged inhale followed by toasted spice notes like black pepper and clove. The mid-palate introduces creamy, sweet flavors reminiscent of baked sugar and shortbread, particularly in dessert-leaning phenotypes. Chem-forward expressions may add savory notes akin to garlic chips. The exhale is smooth, with a lingering cocoa bitterness that balances the sweetness.
Effects
Accord is reported to provide a calming and focused experience, consistent with its indica-dominant classification. Users may find relief from stress due to its balanced effects.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Accord typically tests at high THC levels, commonly ranging from 20% to 27% by dry weight. CBD content is generally below 1%, with total cannabinoids often falling between 22% and 30%. Minor cannabinoids like CBG may be present at levels up to 1%.
Prominent terpenes often include beta-caryophyllene and limonene, contributing to its spicy and citrus notes. Other reported terpenes include myrcene, humulene, and linalool. The complex aroma also suggests the presence of sulfurous compounds contributing savory and garlic-like nuances.
Growing
Accord is considered moderately easy to grow, with a flowering time typically between 63 and 70 days. Plants respond well to training techniques like topping and benefit from trellising. It exhibits medium internode spacing and a high calyx-to-leaf ratio, which aids in quicker trimming. Vigilant airflow is recommended to manage moisture in the dense flowers.
The strain is known for its resin output, making it a good candidate for cultivators focused on extract-grade material. It performs well both indoors and outdoors, with indoor plants generally finishing between 80-130 cm.
Origins & Lineage
Accord was bred by Mamiko Seeds, a Spanish seed bank known for its work with Chem and Cookies genetics. While specific parentage has not been officially disclosed, Accord is widely believed to be a hybrid resulting from a cross between a Chem variety (like Chem D or Chem 4) and a Cookies descendant (such as Forum Cut GSC). This lineage is consistent with Mamiko's breeding philosophy of combining potent, flavorful genetics.
