GMO Pancakes: The Strain That Stacks Up

GMO Pancakes: The Strain That Stacks Up

By: Higher Self Staff Writer / May 12, 2025

For those who appreciate bold terpenes and unforgettable flavors, GMO Pancakes by Higher Self is a dream. This indica-leaning hybrid takes the best of both worlds—GMO’s garlic-forward funk and the sweet, buttery stack from Pancakes—to create a strain that’s as rich in flavor as it is in effect. From the first whiff, you know you’re in for something special. GMO Pancakes puts out a complex nose that’s both savory and sweet: notes of roasted garlic, maple syrup, doughy batter, and a diesel finish. It’s weird in the best way—one of those strains that makes you lean in for another sniff just to figure out what your senses are picking up. The buds are dense, dark green, and coated in sticky trichomes with purple streaks throughout. The high is slow-building and heavy-hitting. It often starts with a warm mental calm that gradually spreads throughout the body, making everything feel a little slower, a little softer. While the initial effects are mentally mellowing, the body sensations grow stronger over time—perfect for unwinding, zoning out, or getting some deep rest after a long day. If you're a fan of funky strains with dessert vibes and knockout strength, GMO Pancakes might just be your new favorite. It’s not your typical sweet strain—it’s bold, savory, and built for full-body satisfaction.
