Barney's Farm Cookies Kush - Winner of the 2014 Best Coffeeshop Strain

Barney's Farm - Cookies Kush

So the 2014 Annual High Times Cannabis Cup was quite a long time ago now. The cup got off to a bad start, when the expo being held at the Melkweg was closed down by the Amsterdam Mayor’s office. However, this didn’t stop cannabis enthusiasts from arriving in Amsterdam to celebrate this yearly festival, supported by stoners all over the world. The awards ceremony still went ahead, and many cannabis cup supporters still had an excellent time enjoying the freedom that Amsterdam still has to offer.

After taking so many cannabis cups over the years, it was no surprise to see the Best Coffeeshop Strain award being given to Barney’s Farm Seeds, for their new strain Cookies Kush.

The Cookies Kush from Barney’s Farm came first, followed up by OG Reek’n by the amazing Green Place Coffeeshop, which is located on Kloveniersburgwal (just of Nieuwmarkt). Third place was taken by the Greenhouse Seed Co for their Pure Kush strain. 

Barney's Farm presents an exhilarating hybrid, Cookies Kush, arising from a fusion of the Girl Scout Cookies Strain and OG Kush. The OG Kush component originates from the renowned OG Rollex strain by Devil's Harvest, itself a cup-winning strain from the previous year. This distinct lineage signals the exceptional nature of this strain right from the start.

Barney’s Farm Cookies Kush has some other characteristics that are very favourable for the collection of any seed collector. Cookies Kush has an excellent yield of up to 500g per m2. Collectors of this strain will also enjoy a low height, and also a short flowering time of between 8 and 8 ½ weeks, finishing outdoors in the beginning of October. In terms of Cannabinoid profile, Barney’s Farm has quoted the Cookies Kush to contain a THC content of 22%, and also a CBD content of over 1%.

Exhibiting the characteristic kush structure, Cookies Kush boasts prominent, plump calyxes brimming with flavorful kush resin. The buds present a delightful pale green hue, adorned with a profusion of glistening white crystals. In terms of taste, Barney's Farm Cookies Kush has garnered online reviews describing a predominantly sweet flavor, accompanied by a subtle touch of spice.

As a testament to the quality of the Cookies Kush resin profile, Barney’s Coffeeshop’s Cookies Ice-Cream (made from Cookies Kush) also took the first place cup for ‘Best Neder Hash by a Coffeeshop’ category; at this years 2014 High Times Cannabis Cup. Beating Greenhouse’s entry Greenhouse Ice, as well as The Grey Area’s - Grey Crystan.
