Animal Mint feminized seeds produce an indica-dominant hybrid that combines a sweet, doughy cookie base with a distinctive cooling mint character — both in aroma and effect. This strain sits at the dessert end of the cannabis flavour spectrum while delivering a firm, body-weighted high that leans heavily toward evening use. A cross developed by PPS, these seeds are fully feminized, removing the guesswork of sexing plants and making efficient use of every grow space.
Genetics & Lineage
Animal Mint is bred from two well-regarded dessert-lineage strains: Animal Cookies and Thin Mint Cookies. Animal Cookies contributes deep indica structure, dense resin production, and an earthy, baked-goods foundation. Thin Mint Cookies — a phenotype of GSC (Girl Scout Cookies) — brings the mint and herbal freshness that defines this strain's most recognizable quality. The resulting hybrid runs approximately 70% indica and 30% sativa, expressing the physical density of its indica heritage while retaining enough sativa influence to keep the effect from becoming purely sedating at moderate doses.
Aroma, Flavour & Effects
The terpene profile centres on caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene, which together produce a layered sensory experience. In early flower, the scent reads as sweet and doughy — warm, almost bakery-like. As the plant moves into mid-to-late flower, a cool, herbal mint note rises over that base and sharpens the overall profile into something noticeably complex. The aroma is medium in intensity: distinctive to anyone familiar with quality cannabis, but not the kind of profile that saturates a room from a distance.
On consumption, the flavour mirrors what the nose anticipates — a clean mint-forward inhale with a rich, cookie-dough exhale. THC content typically ranges between 22% and 26%, delivering a potent onset that begins with a wave of physical relaxation spreading through the shoulders and lower body. The mental component is calm and moderately euphoric rather than racing, settling into a comfortable, unhurried state. This is a strain suited to late afternoon or evening use, particularly for unwinding after physical exertion or managing stress-related tension.
Growing Profile
Animal Mint feminized plants flower in 63 to 70 days from the start of the 12/12 light cycle. Indoors, well-managed plants yield approximately 450 to 550 grams per square metre under optimised conditions, including adequate light intensity and controlled humidity during the final weeks of flower — dense buds with high resin content are more susceptible to moisture-related issues if airflow is poor. Outdoors or in a greenhouse, plants typically reach 150 to 200 cm in height and can produce 500 to 600 grams per plant under a full season. The indica-dominant structure responds well to low-stress training (LST) and topping during vegetative growth, improving canopy uniformity and light penetration. Difficulty is intermediate — manageable for growers with one or two harvests of experience who understand basic environmental control.
Who This Strain Is For
This strain suits growers who prioritise flavour precision alongside reliable resin output — those building a small-batch, quality-focused grow rather than chasing maximum volume. It works equally well in a 4-plant tent setup or a dedicated greenhouse run. For consumers, the effect profile fits anyone seeking structured physical relaxation without full sedation, including those using cannabis to support sleep onset, appetite, or end-of-day decompression. Beginners who can maintain stable humidity and temperature will find the genetics forgiving; experienced growers will appreciate the resin density and the terpene-rich cure.
Animal Mint feminized seeds offer a rare combination of a genuinely distinctive flavour profile and commercial-grade resin production — a pairing that holds up under scrutiny from both the growing side and the glass.
