Gary Payton is a balanced hybrid developed by Cookies in collaboration with Powerzzzup Genetics, bred from The Y and Snowman. This THC-dominant, photoperiod cultivar is known for its powerful effects combining focus, euphoria, and deep relaxation. Flowering completes in 8–9 weeks, producing indoor yields between 450–550 g/m². The terpene profile is rich and layered, blending sharp diesel and earthy pine with sweet cookie dough, gas, and peppery citrus notes. Compact, resin-heavy buds make it a favorite among connoisseurs and extractors alike. Originally named after NBA legend Gary Payton, this cultivar gained global recognition for its potency, bag appeal, and unique branding, becoming one of the defining cultivars of the 2010s “Cookies era.” The original version was created by Powerzzzup Genetics and popularized through Cookies’ global distribution; Jonny Seeds offers the verified Cookies-bred Gary Payton line for its authenticity, balanced structure, and historical importance as a benchmark of modern flavor-forward hybrids.
