Slap And Tickle
GMO (Garlic Cookies) × Grape Pie
Slap And Tickle is an indica-leaning hybrid celebrated for its resinous flowers and deeply relaxing qualities. It is favored by evening consumers seeking a profound body relaxation coupled with a calm mental state, often categorized as a nighttime strain due to its potent, couch-friendly finish.
Appearance
This strain typically presents with medium-density flowers shaped like golf balls or pinecones, heavily coated in glandular trichomes. The calyxes are tightly packed, with tangerine to deep copper pistils curling densely around the surface. Leaves often display dark forest green hues with anthocyanin expression, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during the final growth stages. Mature buds can appear amber-white under bright lighting due to extensive trichome coverage, signaling high resin content.
Aroma & Flavor
Slap And Tickle offers a complex aroma profile, often described as a blend of garlic, pepper, grape candy, and a diesel-like funk. The initial scent is frequently savory and spicy, transitioning to brighter, fruity notes. Upon consumption, the flavor follows a similar arc, starting with savory notes of garlic and black pepper, evolving into dark berry and grape candy, and concluding with a sweet and spicy aftertaste.
Effects
Known for its deeply relaxing effects, Slap And Tickle provides a significant body melt combined with a calm and contented headspace. This makes it a popular choice for evening use, often leading to a heavy, couch-friendly experience. Its balanced profile delivers a noticeable cerebral sensation followed by a blissful physical relaxation.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
The terpene profile frequently features beta-caryophyllene as the dominant compound, contributing spicy and peppery notes, often found in the 0.5–0.9% range. Supporting terpenes include limonene, myrcene, and humulene, which add citrus, earthy, and herbal undertones. Cannabinoid content typically ranges from 20-28% THC, with negligible CBD levels (<1%). Minor cannabinoids like CBG and CBC are present in trace amounts.
Origins & Lineage
Slap And Tickle emerged in the late 2010s as a breeder-driven cross. Its lineage is primarily a combination of GMO (also known as GMO Cookies or Garlic Cookies) and Grape Pie. GMO contributes diesel and garlic notes along with high THC potential, while Grape Pie adds berry-grape aromatics and dense, resinous flowers.
