Call it paradise, with tasty flavors, high THC content, and impressive terpene; we're excited to have Tropicana Cookies seeds for sale in our seed bank!
Most people consider them the same strain. Tropicana Cookies was created by crossbreeding two legendary strains—Tangie and Girl Scout Cookies. Its genetics led to many similar strains, including Tropicanna Cookies, Tropicana Cookies F2, and MTN Trop.
Despite not being exclusively limey, the delicious tropical notes from this beautiful plant will give you similar effects and flavors. The caryophyllene, limonene, and humulene terpenes emulate the signature tart taste of lime-forward cannabis strains. Though both parent strains have beneficial terpenes, Tropicana Cookies takes after Girl Scout Cookies in genetics. However, its flavor, growth patterns, and effects are all similar to Tangie.

Key Lime Pie
Although it doesn’t adhere to the naming scheme, Key Lime Pie is a phenotype derived from Girl Scout Cookies. It doesn’t taste anything like its namesake. Instead, it offers the unique flavor profile of candied limes mixed with chocolate and spice.
In addition to a unique flavor profile, this indica hybrid carries powerful effects that will leave you sedated and uplifted, perfect after a long and stressful week. Like ILGM’s Girl Scout Cookies Extreme, Key Lime Pie offers a powerful full-body high that will make you feel euphoric and deeply relaxed, making it perfect for users looking to unwind.
The Lime
The Lime is a sativa-dominant strain that’s bold in name and flavor. It was created by crossing The Original Lemonade with Cactus Cooler, both citrus-flavored cannabis strains. The Lime has the same potent citrus flavors found in its parents.
This strain stands out because of its super tangy flavor, which mixes limes with other citrus fruits. It also has notes of pine and earth that you can pick up with each draw.
The Lime provides the energizing buzz you’ve come to expect from sativa strains. However, unlike other sativas, The Lime doesn’t end with a crash. Instead, you’ll come down from the high feeling relaxed and euphoric.
Toad Venom
Toad Venom is a lime-flavored strain worthy of its current hype. It’s a reasonably recent cultivar, released in 2023 by Ronin Seeds. Toad Venom also has some zesty genetics. It is a hybrid of Animal Face, a potent cross of Face-Off OG (an OG Kush phenotype), and Sin Mintz, a Zkittlez cross with Sinmint cookies.
This new strain’s strong lime flavor will leave you drooling, while its heavy-handed sedative effects glue you to your couch for hours. Unsurprisingly, Toad Venom is one of the best new strains in the US.
