Girl Scout Cookies × 88 G13 Hashplant
More Cowbell is an indica-leaning hybrid developed by Bodhi Seeds, recognized for its dense, frosty flowers and a complex aroma profile. This cultivar is favored for its reliable potency and calming effects, making it a popular choice for evening relaxation.
Appearance and Structure
More Cowbell produces dense, compact buds with a medium size, indicative of its indica heritage. The flowers are typically covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosted appearance, and often display deep green or olive colors, with potential for purple hues.
The plant exhibits sturdy stem architecture and short internodal spacing, contributing to a manageable structure suitable for indoor cultivation. Its resin production is notable, with sugar leaves and bud surfaces appearing glazed, suggesting suitability for solventless extraction.
Aroma and Flavor
The aroma of More Cowbell is a rich blend of sweet cookie dough, cocoa, and resinous hash, with undertones of mint and nuttiness. Deeper notes of peppery spice, wood, and roasted coffee emerge, creating a layered olfactory experience that leans towards dessert and incense.
Flavors closely mirror the aroma, offering sweet dough and cocoa on the inhale, transitioning to spicy hash and wood on the exhale. Some users detect a cool, minty note, and the finish is often described as bittersweet. The flavor profile can shift with temperature, revealing more nuanced cookie and citrus notes at lower settings and deeper earthy chocolate at higher temperatures.
Effects
More Cowbell is described as providing a calming and restorative experience, making it well-suited for evening use. Its effects are generally considered to be relaxing and can contribute to a sense of tranquility.
Terpenes and Cannabinoids
This strain typically exhibits a high THC content, commonly ranging between 18% and 26%, with minimal CBD content (<1%). Minor cannabinoids like CBG are also present in notable amounts.
The terpene profile is often characterized by a combination that includes Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Pinene, Humulene, and Ocimene. This blend contributes to the strain's complex aroma and flavor, with Caryophyllene and Humulene frequently noted for their presence and contribution to spicy and woody notes.
Cultivation
More Cowbell is considered a forgiving and manageable strain to grow, suitable for indoor tents and greenhouses. It exhibits strong lateral branching and a compact growth habit, often finishing its flowering cycle in 8–9 weeks.
The plant demonstrates good mold resistance, attributed to its G13 Hashplant lineage. Its heavy resin production and dense trichome coverage make it particularly valued for solventless extraction methods like dry sift and ice water hash.
Origins and Lineage
Developed by Bodhi Seeds in the early to mid-2010s, More Cowbell is a cross between Girl Scout Cookies (often the Forum Cut) and Bodhi's 88 G13 Hashplant male. This combination unites the sweet, dessert-like qualities of Cookies with the classic Afghan hash structure and resin density of G13 Hashplant.
The lineage results in a predominantly indica-leaning hybrid, often described as approximately a 70/30 indica-to-sativa ratio. The strain quickly gained a following for its potent effects, distinctive flavor, and reliable cultivation characteristics.
